Need some advice ...
Tropic Isle set up my tank in August of 2006. All equipment bought from them including an $1100 MH light fixture by Jalli.
Everything I bought was covered by a 1 year guarantee by Tropic Isle.
The Jalli fixture burnt out through no fault of my own in April of this year ... thus it was about 8 months old.
Tropic Isle inspected the fixture and agreed it was in excellent condition and this was no fault of mine. They gave me a trade-in value of $500 against a new MH fixture ... which I purchased at a total cost of about $1400.
I still have the credit note, which stated they need to return the fixture to Jalli to confirm the warranty return.
Nothing has transpired. I have called patiently every 6 weeks since April ... but the latest advice was to speak to Mr London because they no longer deal with Jalli.
Who is my warranty with? I feel like I was sold a more expensive light fixture under some false pretenses (that I could recoup the $500 under warranty) ... clearly I needed to renew the fixture within 48 hours ... but upgrading under the basis of this refund was attractive at the time.
Any ideas??
