I suppose that one good thing coming out of this is that the Distributor is now a USA based company.

This should make warranty claims much easier with the point of sale not being in China.
At least western rules will apply now and there will be someone who will have to take responsibility for equipment should it prove "not for purpose".

I know that the gear is sold with 3 months warranty, in the UK no one would get away with this, goods should be fit for purpose for at least 12 months.

Just hope minerwarez have thought this through.
