No receipt, but you are mistaken. I had to send my non TC version back (in my pan car) and that was replaced without fuss and without receipt. The serial number tells them it was UK supplied. You really going to keep a receipt for 25 years? Put your mind at ease give the UK distributor a call http://www.s-m-d.co.uk/

ive never had to provide a reciept for nosram or lrp when having repairs done

Sorry guys but Budfish is quite right, if you have no recipet then SMD will not give you any warranty at present, the reciept is your proof of original purchase if you read the warranty conditions, once the unit changes hands (ie becomes 2nd hand as in this case) the warranty is over, it is only ever for the original purchaser for a time of up to 25 years.

It is designed to give you peace of mind when you buy it from new, that for as long as "you" own it, for a time scale of 25 years (they had to stop using the term LIFE for legal reasons) it is covered under warranty when accompanied by the purchase reciept for all regular warranty issues.

So many people keep hold of the warranty card which is not how it works, your card (for any and whatever reason) should be filled out as soon as you get it and returned to SMD (or your local dealer) to activate the warranty, not held on to for a rainy day or for added re-sale value use (of which it is no good now anyhow)

Sadly it is poeple who have "twisted" the warranty procedure with LRP that have caused them to clamp down on how it works, the racers only have themselves to blame for this, hell I even saw someone a short while ago on here asking to buy just "a warranty card"...... I wonder why?

Horizon were far more relaxed (beacuse LRP allowed it) and as a consequence often got shafted, Mirage, well we dont have to worry about them after this month......

From what I understand, the main Mirage guy left. Then Mirage, UK distributor of HPI/HotBodies was absorbed by HPI (to be named HPI UK)

I bet someone still does though....

Technically you are correct about transfer of warranty, but having read the entire warranty terms nowhere does it state a need for the original receipt. Simply sending back the warranty card by the new owner would be perfectly sufficient but I feel that this thread has now been killed by all these speculative posts.

Cant speak for all but some are just trying to be helpful with facts to correct fiction.....

this thread was created because it seemed some members might find some of the information usefull regarding warranty cards and reciepts and could be discussed away from someones for sale thread.

Why don't you do as I do - I keep the receipt and warranty card in the box the item came with. Then when you need it, you've got it. All you've got to do is remember where you put the box...

Fair play, cannot argue with that
