Question: Question: "Oh my God, a defect!" When's the last time you got a product or item and after a period of time from instant to a few days you found a flaw

Just curious, when you found that flaw did you lean back and look towards the sky and shout the exact words "oh my God, a defect!"

???

This is the only information I want. I do not want to hear about:
  • What the product was
  • Where you ordered the product from
  • What the flaw or defect was
  • What kind of service you received in getting the defect addressed, and whether you were happy with that service
  • General commentary on the quality of goods going down
All of the responses listed above are BORING. I'm serious, they're boring as whale shit and you had better not litter this thread with that boring garbage.

The ONLY thing I want to know is if you specifically threw your head back and yelled "oh my God, a defect!" when you discovered the issue. It's a simple yes or no question. Please try to follow the thread rules for once, if it's not too much for you to handle while you're hunched over your drool cup reading this thread on an old Ameritech computer or some shit.

Thank you.
 
Trying to recall something I ordered expecting it to be perfect.

Last thing was probably a John Deere mower about 15 years ago. Brand new with a v-twin motor and it had about 4 hours on the clock. Mowing the yard and it knocked about a dozen times and boom, it threw a rod or piston out the side of the block. Oil and metal on my shoe and deck. A two golf ball size hole in the block. Was well, apparently there was a defect. I loaded it on my trailer, took it to the front door to lowes and wheeled it inside to customer service leaving a trail of oil from my trailer to counter, about 30 feet. I have a complaint and want a new mower or my money back. Gave me a new mower on the spot.

We bought a bunch of appliances eight years ago. They were fairly high-end consumer-grade units. The stove face got hot enough that the mfing knobs melted right off. The ice machine shat the need after about 5 years. We've already replaced the dishwasher. All kinds of shit is loose and falling off the fridge.
 
Everything unique has flaws. I say the same thing for every open box product that I buy at a discount, "Thank the devil for idiots like at @smurfco returning perfectly good merchandise!"
 
  • I ordered a lumberjack
  • I think it was from H&M
  • There was a hole in one sleeve
  • I returned it and got a new which was fine
  • Generally, the quality of lumberjacks has been going down since Roy Orbison died, but I blame Macca

I can't remember exactly how I reacted when I discovered the issue.
 
My new Hohner Club has the cover of the bridge pickup loose. They attempted to solder it, but it didn't take on the cover itself.

I just threw duct tape on the back of it because I love that thing and I won't be doing high gain on a bass.
