I have very few products in my possession that cannot be sorted for spares by the manufacturer.
Are you really serious that if you cosmetically damaged your TV or your car door, you would not get it fixed.
Are you serious that you will let Surefire dictate to you what they will sell you as a replacement component.
Are you serious that they will happily sell you a replacement bezel for a much cheaper model and wont support you (in terms of spares) for what was their flagship LED unit
Are you serious that you will allow SF to dictate to you when they may or may not bother to respond to communications or when they may or may not decide to send you a spare part at all.
Are you serious about receiving seriously degraded service if you are outside of the good ol US of A
Are you serious that you would pay ABSOLUTE top dollar and not expect some sort of responsive customer service akin to a beligerant British rail ticket office clerk who cant be bothered to scratch his own scrotum.
Have you never decided not to by a particular make or model of something because of your experience as a buyer either through poor workmanship or (in this case) poor CS?
You bet I am serious. Wake up and smell the coffee.
Surefire are good.........but they aint the holy grail bud.
And take a look at the other kit out there. Some of it is getting really good too and outperforms SF (in terms of output and range and run times) and is better value too.
Suggest you look again at the market place - there are 62 other manufacturers out there - not all of which are crap.
Am I serious..............................have you not read my posts
