Will V-Moda Replace my Broken Vibes?

  1. Yes, they are still under warranty, even if that warranty is on its last day.

  2. No, V-Moda will find an excuse as to why they don't have to service your ear buds.

  3. You are an idiot for waiting until the last day of your warranty to file for repair/replacement.

    I have a set of V-Moda Vibe ear bud that broke 9 months ago when the cord become dislodged from the base (this is a common problem). I was quite busy with school and other things at the time, so I never sent them in to be replaced, even though I filed a support request and got the all clear for replacement.

    For the last few months, the Vibes were sitting in a bag, still broken. I came across them today, and realized that I should probably see if I can get them fixed now that I've got some free time. After all, they did cost me $80.00. I went to go check my receipt to see when I bought them, and low and behold, I bought them exactly one year ago today, July 30. Like anyone with a brain would do, I went to V-Moda's website and filed a support request. Technically my ear buds are still under warranty. Let's hope V-Moda doesn't give me trouble and replaces them per the conditions of the warranty. What do you guys think?

    kind of a tossup, If you get your request processed today then I guess they have to do it. just going to have to wait and see.

    Multiple choice poll, good call. Options 1 and 3 are correct ;)

    I got an email from V-Moda and they told me to ship them back for replacement. Thumbs up to them! I know if it were Dell or some other company they would find a reason not to cover me.

    Technically they won't repair your earbuds.

    Because they're not earbuds.

    They will, however, repair your iem's.
