I have not made up anything it is clearly written on our site - If we don't have something in stock then we will refund a Mutually agreeable value to the customer but customer is not agreeing and nor are we to what the customer wants. Mutually agreeable value Refund is the only option here as stated on our site.

going by all of your post I understand one thing :

You must have imported soundmagic earphones in bulk quantities at dirt cheap prices but sm refuse to give you their warranty

But still you claim 1 year warranty and untill you had stock you gave it . Now you don't have stock and you have stopped importing so you can't give replacement to op

So you will have to pay double for getting a new earphone from another source or give op cn of double amount of the cost price of the earphone . So you deny to give him a new piece or full refund and make up this story of depreciation and your ram policy ,etc

^^ Yes that's exactly how its done you used the Earphone for 7 Months so how am i liable to pay you the full amount i know your not selling it to us but the same cannot be replaced and that's the reason why customers are issued credit notes in such cases, tatzy we offered you a Credit note. Just coz your not selling it back to us doesn't mean you have not used the same for 7 Months that will count for something right?
Yes you are somehow right,

But not 100%. Now m gonna post my 4870x2 RMA procedure which took around 3months in extensive detail so that everyone can know how this stuff works,

I bought a used 4870x2 for 15k, which after i realized that this thing is a power hungry monster :/ , so here comes my trick (whatever you thought of it now), gave a visit to tirupati service center @ NP and told them that my card is having high temps(which i m indeed right because @ idle its having 55'c :( ) and also having some flickering problems, they first asked that whether the card is sourced from tirupati or any other distri. after confirming with me, they too the card and gave me a time of 20days, tat you will get your card replaced.

Now after 1 month, asked them wheter my card is arrived or not, they said its not in stock anymore, waited 2weeks more, then finally gave up and wrote a email to palit support and tirupati head office. Got a call from Mr. Abhishek and he asked me to provide 1 month more time but after hearing my problem that i am a animation student (which i am not) he provided me a standby GPU ~ 5770. After 1 more month he gave me call, and provided some offers to me which are as follows;

Credit Note deducting my usage time, ( price paid on the card is 35784rs.)

2x4890

2x5850 (by paying 6k cash more)

5870 (yeyeyeyey, mission accomplished :P)

but before confirming with that how this RMA procedure goes, he told that the if you want the credit, it will be calculated by deducting the usage time (he quoted me 22k), then i asked why you are giving options for 2x4890 or 5870, he said that if a customer wants replacement of the product, it is provided on the bases of performance ad not the current price or price paid, customer can choose a lower end end product + cash (if the service provider agrees), or can choose a more powerful card by paying more cash, or the service will provide them a best deal. So i finally gave up @ Brand new Powercolor 5870.

Hope both the defending and opposition parties can understand this, not defending or supporting any1.

As you are the owner of your site, you can change the text anytime... So what is written on your site now is useless...
 
I will not give u back that either because then i will not send the earphone back to you WHICH I WANT TO because if i don't send it back to you someone here will think i claimed warranty from soundmagic and got a new from them and will make more money and wat not.

Also this story will set a precedent for the future RMA cases as well. He is not only limiting his losses on this piece but on all the pieces. Really pity the guys who have bought stuff from him. If the product fails they will only get what he feels like giving.
 
I have not changed it TE member had copy pasted the same question last night itself check his previous it will be there if he has not changed it or edited it.

^^ Is your depreciation policy (with calculation method) listed somewhere on your website? If not, then standard depreciation procedures applies and that is definitely not done the way you have described it. You cannot make up your rules when ever you want. If you want to highlight a policy it should be listed on your website or on a bill somewhere on or before the time of purchase.

Jeri, If you have a proper tax paid bill receipt and have proof that he provided 1 year warranty, I suggest that you go ahead and file a consumer case. I am pretty sure that if done properly, you would not only get a full refund (or at least the current market value), but will also get compensation for any other recognizable expenditure that you had to take on account of this including those for the court case. What Rahul is doing here is borderline fraud. If you let this happen, How easy it would be for him or any other seller to handle warranty for everything else that they sold/going to sell in a similar fashion. Just get the buyer to ship the product at his own expense, refuse replacement, and give a pittance as store credit and even worse the possibility that they can RMA the product from the manufacturer at their own leisure and sell the replacement to someone else for full price.
 
He seems to be getting pwned on all tech forums (E and TDF) :P

Btw his status on another forum reads "This user has no status"

I think it should be "This user has no status and no commonsense" :P

ok.. since you want to play "by the rules", let me tell you a few things and ask few more:

1. Your "policy" is in your FAQ but it is it in your "Terms and conditions of sale"?

2. Did your thread on TE mention this explicitly that all sales are subject to your terms and conditions with an explicit and prominent link to the terms and conditions?

3. While making the sale, was the buyer at any time, made aware of these terms and conditions by oral/written means or a link to this particular condition and was asked to provide a oral/written/digital confirmation that he has read/heard the conditions and accepts them?

If the answer to any of the above items is "No", then you don't get to invoke the "rules".
 
File a complaint against him, We are with you m.jeri... Alternate option is if any mumbai lads accompany me to his shop, we can get a chance to show him our attitude too....

Sorry mods for this comment..you may ban me or reduce my rep points... but I want OP to get the replacement, the main reason for me being active in this thread is that OP stays in mysore/trivandrum(as his profile says) which is far away from mumbai, and guys we can understand how frustrated one gets in this situation if a dealer is making nonsense comments and not coming to a conclusion ...
 
@m-jeri Register a complaint in CORE against this guy and we all in TE will make sure that he learns a lesson from CORE.
 
If u say that then the buyer did not buy the same from TE
