Life lesson with Snap on warranty

[laminated]

contacted Snap On re broken Blue Point light. told sorry Not under warranty,so no replacement . was not told that when sold it. Warranty ends when the tool isnt sold any more.

What is the tool?

Not everything Snap On is covered under lifetime warranty, BluePoint included. But it depends on the tool.

was a small light had fibre op extension

I think most lights have a 1 year warranty.

 

[AJHD]

Yeah bud, you're expecting way too much, or you were misinformed.

2ndGearRubber was correct, the longest Snap On or BluePoint warranty when it comes to electronics (ie. flashlights) that I know of is 1 year.

They do. I was surprised to find that out when my 18yr old son told me. I've since got some broken blue-point stuff replaced.
Though I don't think they always did or I'm sure I would've known.........

Some do. I’m sure when I first started out the SO guy told me that all bluepoint hand tools had lifetime, but that hasn’t been the case for several years if it was ever true. Now it varies by tool.

Makes me question why I would buy any bluepoint hand tool over another brand that’s made in the same country, is cheaper and does have lifetime warranty (except for the brilliant 100pc general service set)

Modern Blue Point is just kinda weird. Some of their stuff is priced spot on, and pretty good. A lot is indeed ho hum. I've some older Kenosha Blue Point tools that are just phenomenal.

Yes if say you broke an open-end wrench.
