So don't try to transfer it. If you want to take care of a friend, do it. In the world of high-tech, we call this a "workaround." I'm not advocating fraud, for heaven's sakes. If you want to help out someone you've sold to, do whatever you think is right. Three years isn't that long anyway! Maybe take more time up front to consider what you really want so that you don't have to sell the equipment before the warranty/insurance runs out! Get real! If you don't want the Passport, buy a camera from outside the U.S. All this arguing about minutiae is really just a lot of hot air! Go take some pictures already! ;-) K. - -----Original Message----- From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us]On Behalf Of Martin Howard Sent: Saturday, February 08, 2003 12:28 AM To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us Subject: Re: [Leica] Warranty Issues John Collier wrote: > Taking care of Passport matters for gear you have sold is more > commonly called fraud. Is it technically fraud? If the passport service is valid only (a) for a specified piece of equipment, (b) to a specified person, and (c) for a maximum period of three years from the date of purchase, then if that person claims service for that piece of equipment within three years of its initial purchase, how does it constitute fraud? Does it explicitly say in the Passport legalese that you have to be the owner? Or does it only state that the Passport service is only available to the "original owner"? The orginal owner is still the orginal owner, even after having sold it.
