EBay & warranty?

Does anybody kow if a manufacturer's waranty applies if you have purchased something (new) from Ebay.

I bought my Ameda Purely Yours breast pump back in August / September I think... it's starting to play up & I do NOT want to be left in the lurch without one!

If it was bought in a store I would take it back. Does anyone know, can you do the same with Ebay?

TIA :)

Did you get a receipt when you purchased it? If so you can contact the manufacturer to find out what to do. If you don't have a receipt, can you contact the seller to try and get one?

I bought a new mobile phone from eBay a few years ago and it started playing up, I was able to get it repaired under warranty because I had a receipt.

A lot of the time they can tell when a product was manufactured and therefore if its under warranty, but they dont *have* to without proof of purchase.

Also, you'd need to lie and say that you bought it new as generally a warranty is not transferrable, and selling the item on will void it.

So I need to contact the manufacturer?
I think the seller I bought it from is like an on-line store, if that helps.... I will have to go back & find my sales details from them.
TBH i never thought I'd be using it this long, so didn't worry about that stuff at the time... :doh:

If the seller has an online store and regularly sells the same pumps then contact them and ask them who to contact (also ask for a receipt if they didn't already give you one). I'm sure if you contacted the manufacturer though, they'd be pretty helpful :)
