not exactly. it is a 5 year replacement warenty. they WILL refund the money anytime in the 5 years if something goes wrong with it.

theres the trick there, they arent going to waste thier time searching for whats wrong with it. most of the time they will just take it, assume something is wrong and send the money back just as quick.

When i sent my old mp3 player back. it had a website with a timeline of its progress, the time it had got recieved was same time as it said refund shiped out.

i even have friends that work at stores like best buy and they will say the same thing. That works.

The other part is you just give them a ghost problem. say it freezes and locks up every so often. How will they prove it doesnt? by playing it for day after day wiating for the problem? no. they just shrug and send the money back.


Take it for how you want bro. but it does work and that $50 warenty is WELL worth it. things like my mp3 player are about the only things i will buy the warenty on because of this reason.

well to keep doing it you lose about 100 each time. because they dont refund the warenty, and you have to buy a new warenty on whatever you buy with the money. (unless you buy something else with it)

and its usually only a gift card. but it is fun to have a 400 or $500 gift card and go thro the store looking for stuff. lol
