Bigger chain-stores and big eshops will often just return money rather than bicker about the warranty return. (Not as generous as Amazon, but still very customer friendly).
Yes, and I was trying to say that no such shops or even online stores appear to exist in the UK.

I agree completely that the average user just wants a simple return or repair service. But when I went through a simulation of trying to do that online, I hit that useless dead end support site.

I accept that things are different in germany. And that I was off target re China.

In current times all imports, exports may be disrupted. It's going to be better to shop in-country if you can.
