Right...so basically you're saying that it's okay for someone to knowingly break something in direct contravention to the terms of usage of the device, and then cry "Capitalism is Evil" while demanding that they get a free one in return.
If you truly believe that capitalism is evil, then perhaps I'm not the one who should be wishing to move to China.
I have no problems with RMA'ing legitimately faulty equipment, that's what it is for.
I have a problem with people breaking stuff and using whatever lame justification in their head in an attempt to legitimise what is essentially theft.
Let's put it another way. You sell something to someone that you know is working just fine because you tested it to work just fine right before you handed it over. They break it, and then come back to you and demand another one for free because you sold them something that was broken.
Believing that such is wrong is not standing on a moral high ground. This is basic fundamental ethics for living or else the world would fall into rampant lawlessness if "the masses" truly believed such as well.
What never ceases to amaze me is the indignity with which dishonest folk react with when they are named as such. I guess it's part of the same mentality that allows them to justify their dishonesty in the first place.
