Fairly simple, 6 month warranty, broke in 2 months, he either stands behind it, gives a refund, or deals with a lawsuit! If you punch him, you're busted for assault.

I agree with this Post! I would never suggest giving the guy a good old fashioned beat down, for reasons that it would implicate me in the crime committed. Conspiracy to commit a crime is a good reason to go to jail for life. And that is with out doing anything. All you need is two people saying that you might be thinking of a crime. You do what you need to do to let off the steam. you do let him know in a calm monotone voice that your not happy, and this is unacceptable. then report him to the BBB, Labor board, ASE, and another organization you can till this is fixed.

It's amazing what the threat of calling the local Better Business Bureau can accomplish.

Jail for life, for talkin about punchin someone. If that was the case I'd have gotten the death penalty by now.
