 tempforross | * Hello, Louis.
Recently, I bought a phone from a well-known phone reseller from my country ( A Samsung A52s)
Unfortunately, I broke the screen and had to repair the screen with them. They refused warranty because I had installed LineageOS on the phone, and tripped Knox. (The phone is currently officially supported by Lineage).
They replaced the screen and they said that the "side bezels" had to be changed in colour because of the spare part that they had in stock. After inquiry, they refused to tell me whether or not the part that they had repaired had been part of an assembly supplied from samsung or if they had it supplied as part of the "lord of war economy" as you speak of...
The phone cost me 250€ and the repairs cost me 200€.
My question is whether of was I "scammed" as part of the war on OEMs on the repair of consumer electronics or if this was a justified price on repair.

| Krzysztof | Seen today: the drain under someone's car in FiDi started steaming, filling the inside of the car with an ungodly amount of sewer vapor, probably stinking it up, possibly causing some damage as well.
NYC is truly the gift that keeps on giving. | 03:16:57 |
