EVGA warranty

Nedb37 · 29 May 2015 at 22:04

Hi,

Recently bought a second hand EVGA PSU and curious to know if I still have the 10 year warranty (receipt for original purchase is coming with it) or if I'm on the 3 (??) year second owner warranty? Hoping nothing ever goes wrong obviously but, will having the original receipt be 'proof' enough?

I would assume as you have the receipt, it would be 10 years. How would they prove your second if you supply the receipt and don't say it's second-hand?

That's what I was assuming, yes. Just curious to know if anyone had any experience of this. Not sure yet if the receipt has original owners name etc..

I would be surprised if it did, it may however have the first owners card number, if paid for using plastic not cash.

Good point, yes. Will see how we go, just curious so I know what I'm working with. Thanks!

No worries, worst case scenario you still get 3 years warranty, almost no other companies do that.

It says the original owner has to register the product within 30 days for the full 10 year warranty. I'm sure this is not the case though, as you have the original receipt they'll probably be lenient enough and honour the warranty anyway.

Ah! Not sure this was done, will. Message and find out. Had missed that bit, thanks!

Found EVGA thread about warranty transfer to second owner.

To check how long warranty have left on your EVGA PSU, you will need to enter the serial number on the EVGA PSU.

That's been really helpful thanks!

PSU just arrived, done a quick paperclip test on it and not convinced it's working. Either that or I'm doing the test wrong!

Have input the serial number into the link you sent (very helpful!) and it's telling me the product was shipped 30/01/14 but that I only have 609 days left on the warranty!? Receipt from guy who sold it to me says it was bought in March this year. Could it be that I actually have a 3rd hand, non working PSU??

Going to ask IT guy in work to double check it's functioning and go from there.

The shipped date probily refers to when it was dispatched from the Factory where it was produced
