Graphic Cards GPU pricing trends

they have known to allow replacement in this case sometimes(someone got one faulty fan on a gpu and they replaced)
but u may also have to go for rma.
depends on your luck tbh.
Well, that's reassuring. So why doesn't Flipkart have a replace-only thing on the product page like Amazon that would give people a lot more confidence to buy from Flipkart.
 
this order cancelling thing has happened a lot of times in e commerce, but yeah this is a genuine problem on flipkart.
The order of magnitude is way higher on Flipkart.
bht nothing in the order of "Scam".
Then what is a scam? You take orders for hundred of products you don't have, collect money then cancel it for no reason. If a buyer receives a faulty product then you mention 'no return clause' to make them run behind brands.
And if zotac has declared no extended warranty on cards with import buffer of 90 days, Then the consumer should check the date and if its older return / not accept the gpu.
This is not with Zotac only. Zotac has mentioned it because people are mailing them for extended warranty. I confirmed from a few shops and in 2023 this is same with almost all brands except Sapphire I think but it's Rma support can't come close to excellent support Zotac offers.
Anyways this is just a cheap tactic from Zotac. i can understand not giving extend warr on cards older than 1year,but 90 days.
This is probably an agreement between brands and dealers. That's why ZOTAC said " we are giving our dealers a buffer of 90 days". The dealers are to be blamed here for not adhering to the terms and conditions. Such agreements happen based on how many products are sold in the market and in what time.
They should also advertise this in their cards, let everyone know where they stand.
They stand by their extended warranty, excellent support and the largest GPU stock for replacements.
i dont think you can really blame any retailer for this
Yes, you can blame a retailer. They must have been informed about this that is why Zotac is replying from its official email and mentioning this.

i personally dont consider cancelling a product and refunding within 24hrs a scam, since this has been done to me a lot of times including fk, amazon and even some pc retailers.
frustating, yes.

i didnt know zotac has made this clear to the retailers.what happens in case you buy a gpu from offline retailers and its more than 90 days old, do u not get extended warr in this case too? what other brands give extended warranty?
soneone mentioned gigabyte, but i didnt get any on my 1650 super bought in 2020
EDIT-
import date -feb 2020
billed on -aug 2020.
was this due to the 90 day buffer too?

Okay, I don't think it is always 24 hours though. Sometimes they cancelled after a few days and refund takes a few days too. The porblem is, when people face an issue, the Flipkart support vanishes especially for expensive products.

Zotac has mentioned a buffer of 90 days so no extended warranty after that.
also what other brands give extended warranty?
Gigabyte only.

did pcstudio scam me here?
There was a longer buffer in 2020 so no, pc studio didn't scam you. You have to register the card yourself to get an extended warranty. I think there is a limit of 30 days from the billing date in every brand.

Yup, flipkart support has gone downhill ever since walmart came.into picture.

i remember registering it within a day or two of getting it.
maybe this one didnt have that extended warranty, coz i didnt see it in any marketing material at that time or even the product page .

Anyways,this 90 day policy is very anti consumer, specially considering they are selling something that has 36months base warranty.

It might be their "policy", but I don't see how it can be enforced on you since you never agreed to it. If sales page doesn't mention all those policies, it is simply not legal. Warranty should start from billing/delivery date as agreed upon, not an arbitrary import date which is not mentioned anywhere before the sale.

Then it did not have extended warranty. Only Gigabyte gaming OC, vision, Aorus has extended warranty. It is mentioned on the box.

The base warranty is still applicable. One will not get extended warranty after 120 days. 90 days buffer and 30 days after billing date.

this is definitely an oc product .
but i cant find anything regarding extended warranty including the info on the box
EDIT- nevermind not an "Gaming oc" just an "oc" product.
 
Yeah.....new psu is must
NZXT 750 full modular for 5500 on flipkart brother
fantastic! Got the 3080ti for 52k after SBI discount.

not telling the wife tho. Did not budget for a 50k GPUs the same month I bought an iPad.

Will need to buy a new cpu and psu also right? Current running a 2700x on a MSI b450 tomahawk with a 550w psu. Any Fk deals on these?
