I’m not quite following how that relates to a lack of warranty on used items? I would have assumed both offer excellent customer service and I’ve certainly not read anything untoward, but outside of warranty in the future leaves buyers of used pairs with an unknown quantity in case of a fault. It may mean repair/replacement costs even on a unit under 5 years old. Certainly got me thinking.
Will be interesting to see what Dutch & Dutch come back with. Perhaps there’s will turn out to be transferable or tied to product rather than first owner, which is a much better/fairer system IMO.
There is nothing in the Dutch & Dutch 8c warranty terms which specifically excludes transferring the warranty to a second owner.
There is a reason why warranties are tied to people rather than products. From a legal standpoint, at least in the UK and European Union, the warranty is part of the contract between the original purchaser and the retailer. What manufacturers are effectively doing is underwriting that warranty. If you want your warranty to be transferable, there is nothing to prevent you from negotiating that with the retailer.
