I mean, isn't that how things are supposed to work? It works to make the turnaround time faster (you get a "new" one as soon as they receive yours). |
Yeah, people just don't understand repair processes. I used to work at BBY sending off hundreds of customer units for repair. If they give out refurbs, they're doing you a favor. People expect to get a brand new unit and throw a fit if they don't. Nevermind that we paid for shipping both ways and gave them a repaired product for free...
FWIW, in the 8 months following the 360's launch, I only had one customer bring one in that wasn't working. And it wasn't red-ringed out, it just wouldn't read one of his games.
