I think Id be going by what the official Sightron website claims not what a dealer claims..just me.

Think about it, why would we post erroneous info? We are the distributor and responsible for Sightron in Canada.

From Sightron this AM:

Good Day to All:

Sightron has made the decision to offer the Limited Lifetime warranty for our international customers. I have attached the new warranty for you to read. The new warranty will be placed on the website by the end of the day.

Thank you,

Hi Peter: If a person bought one off the EE and didnt get a sales receipt what options does one have?

Does it have to be the original or will a scanned copy work?

Also is there anyway the original dealer could help if the original owner lost the receipt?

Thanks

[peterdobson]

Scanned is fine and dealers have been very helpful.

Regards,

Peter

So are we SOL without a receipt in hand? I had a set of SII binos replaced under warranty a couple or 3 years back and did not get asked for any proof of payment.
