chuck Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Does Nikon continue to honor the warranty if a lens is resold within the warranty period? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lornesunley Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 <p>It depends on where you live, different countries have differing laws concerning manufacturer's warranties</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
User_4754088 Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 <p>I've been told by Nikon USA that they don't honor the warranty on a resold lens even though it is within the original warranty period.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShunCheung Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 <P> See condition #1 from a Nikon USA warranty card: </P> <blockquote> <p>This warranty extends to the original customer purchaser only and is not assignable or transferable.</p> </blockquote> <P> As far as I can tell, that rule is the same in a lot of countries, but local law in some countries may require Nikon to have a different practice. </P> <p><br /><br /></p> <center> <P> <img src="http://d6d2h4gfvy8t8.cloudfront.net/18094686-lg.jpg" alt="" /></p> </center> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johncrosley Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 <p>As I recall, California law does not require such registration, or did not when I last looked.</p> <p>Practice, when last I was in the Nikon Repair Facility, West Coast, was they were not asking about 'registration within ten days' at least for products carried into their CA facility by customers.</p> <p>It may be different if something is mailed in from out of state, depending on what state it's mailed from, and if the New York repair facility is enforcing the ten-day registration period in the above copy, it might behoove a try to send first to the CA repair facility (where they're very nice and pretty liberal.)</p> <p>Nikon West Coast repair facility in LA area has a pretty good repair policy or last did several years ago when last I used them; they treated me well, and since I often had to wait for last minute rush repairs, I often let other customers 'go first' so I got a first hand view of their customer treatment policies, and for the most part they were exemplary.</p> <p>Oh, the 'ESC' is in my opinion, a warranty no matter how it's named, but I am sure it's easier on the bookkeeping to not to have to set aside assets on the books (probably) in the same manner as they must for a 'warranty' if Nikon were to admit their ESC was in fact a legitimate 'warranty'. (I practiced law in CA for nearly two decades, but it's been about a quarter century ago; however I'd be surprised if the law has changed, but I cannot be cited as authority and do not provide legal advice).</p> <p>john</p> <p>John (Crosley)</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
