[Icom] ICOM Warranty

Thu, 17 Jul 2003 19:49:53 +0200

Hi Ken

If you buy something in Denmark you have at least 2 years warranty, no
matter what, some are even giving 3 years . This is stated in the "Buyers
law"
Its the Icom dealer here in OZ who has the warranty towards the end user,
not Icom. If Icom say no warranty, its the dealers problem not mine :-)
If you as Canadian buys an Icom in OZ you have 2 years warranty (but you
wont because they are vy expensive here :-))

BTW as I bought my IC-7400 (746Pro) last year there was a warranty card in
the box, but I didnt use it.

Kind regards

Per  OZ1EQC
