Subject: [Leica] M8 owners, please help me out - did it come with a warranty card?

Frank, to me that seems a very cynical way of looking at things.
Registration is optional. If you choose to do so then Leica sent you two
filters. That sounds like pretty positive action by the company to make
amends for the design shortcoming.  I also get useful email that I opted
into. Just what is Leica going to do with our names once we hand them over
that offends you? In my case I messed up my order for the two free filters
and e-mailed Leica to say that I got it wrong. I got a very rapid response
(next business day) from Leica that my mistake was corrected and then
received my filters in fact very rapidly FedEx to me.
IF the new owner, who is apparently a fellow Canadian known to Vick, had a
problem then it would seem simple for Vick to assist with any camera return
to the service agent.


Cheers
Geoff

What he said...... 

And to boot, Leica has long since used gimmicks to get the name of the
original purchaser.. like the free filters.....

The new owner has no warranty.  ( or so I interpret the "rules").

Vick,

Since the buyer is not the original owner,  what does it matter.

Just cut the price another Kilobuck to make up for it. :-)
