If you look back at buzz's post on 170 with the pic of the manual; it says the warranty covers general "wear and tear" for the life of the product as long as you are the original purchaser. To me if you broke the clip that could be thought of as normal "wear and tear." So, if you receive the old style of gh, you could send it in at a later time for an updated vape under the warranty. They are not going to have the old style ghs forever, in most cases in warranty claims you have to receive an equal or better product than what you sent in? If they don't have the original you would receive yours back "fixed" or a new one. I'm just saying that if you receive an old model you could probably find a way through their liberal warranty statement to receive an updated product.
I would think that even though they are in China they have a crew back at home to do assembly. They hired a person specifically to manage this task. So, I would think they could ship the ones that are done back to colo and the assembly manager could assemble and ship those. If not why even have an assembly manager? I think Matt and Trevor would like to be there for final qc at the Chinese manufacturing sites but once that is done, I would hope they have the confidence in their staff to get stuff done back at home.
I don't think the clip would just "wear and tear" and fall off...don't abuse the warranty and they will stay a healthy company!
I've broken many clips off of pens over time from them being hooked over my pocket. I was not meaning to say to "abuse" the warranty. My point was that if you are given a less than product, you could use the warranty to receive the product you were suppose to receive in the first place. The clip was an example of possible warrant coverage.This is all hypothetical anyway because we do not know what people have received so far, so everyone may get the updated model in the end anyway.
If they send them by boat, then, yes, we are in for a wait. Well, more of a wait...
By wear and tear I think they mean the use of the GH over time may affect the functionality of it. I don't think they're going to replace a working vape just because the clip broke, but hey, guess we'll see right?
lol...........they literally already made a quick buck in their initial crowd funding campaign, eh? That was a lot of money generated really quick.
don t know as long as you don t know about their costs to develop the gh you really can t say how much profit they made out of it until now...

I wasn't saying that people should take advantage of the liberal warranty for any ole' reason. What I was saying, maybe unclearly, was if a company sends you an inferior product, one that you get because you supported them earlier than everyone else and they will not upgrade you to the newer product that the majority of buyers are receiving, then, you could use the warranty to your benefit to get the upgraded product. At the end of the day it would have been kind of irresponsible of them to send an inferior product just because you supported them in their infancy. It seems counterproductive. Also, at no point did I say this would be necessary because I don't believe the gh team would send out pre-production units with out having a plan to later send out the production units to those people.
