@mohit.sharma.attrig: Apple, JB Hi-Fi, and Noel Leeming hope you NEVER discover this law! 🛑📱 If your iPhone, MacBook, AirPods, or TV stops working after 12 months, DO NOT pay $600 for a repair or buy extended warranty. Under Section 6 and Section 43 of the New Zealand Consumer Guarantees Act 1993, store manufacturer warranties are legally meaningless. Products must last for a reasonable time based on their price—meaning an $1,800 phone or laptop is legally protected for AT LEAST 3 to 5 years. Under Section 19, the retailer who took your money is legally forced to repair it for free ($0), replace it, or refund you. If they refuse, mention the Disputes Tribunal ($45 fee where corporate lawyers are banned from the room). Tell me in the comments: what’s the most expensive gadget that died on you right after the 1-year mark? 👇 #newzealand #apple #jbhifi #nzlaw #consumerguaranteesact
