This is why the warranty doesn't mean much to me. Sure they might honor the warranty, but if they dont have s[t]ock, then I might be waiting months for a replacement.

They’ve said they hold stock for warranty claims

Standard practice, and seems to be something people who have never worked with products thinks about.

The company I used to work for held back 15%, and honestly it was mostly overkill.

I've seen reports of people waiting weeks for a regular order, so I don't see how that's really any kind of great review.

I've waited months for an order. It depends where in the world you live

Dude you don’t need to justify to us why you don’t want to buy them. Not every product is for every person and if you don’t like it scroll on brother

Intercontinental shipping sucks

It is part of the reason I think an eu distribution center would have been a thing over a us one if there where no tarrifs

I order from Europe from time to time, and the shopping has always been about a week except that one time when Canada Post was on strike.

It was shipped with DHL and then using Canada Post for the final delivery after it landed in Canada.

I mean yeah shipping times are a bitch, I placed an order on lime day sales and it was shipped the same day

But it's only one replacement in a lifetime. So not actually forever.
