Sold As Is No Warranty

[davbell22602]

Why is so hard for people to understand that something is Sold As Is No Warranty? I fix up used mowers and resell. Some keep threatening with lawsuits and filing complaints on cause mower breaks down after they start using it. I check over and they run good. If aint broke I cant fix it.

Still at least they can't actually sue you...

I was told they could still sue unless both buyer and seller signs it.

Hmm I don't know about that but I just say now is sold as is seller is not responsible for any additional repairs or damage caused by machine.

Try "Not intended for reuse, sold as is for parts only, no warrant implied or expressed"

If someone buys a used mower from you and brings it home to use and it breaks down, just why wouldn't you stand in back of the sale or fix it. I guess its something I just couldn't do. Yes I can see a time limit or if it was miss use. I guess that makes me a very poor business person.

When I repair and resale I stand behind my work. If it breaks because they hit a rock that's not my problem. If it breaks, or doesn't work right because of something I did wrong I eat it and repair. In the 4 years I have been doing this full-time there's been less than a handful of people that have had issues. I take care of it right away. In order to get new business you have to take care of your old business!! Word of mouth is very important. I thoroughly go through all equipment I repair and sell. I load test run and tune so people don't have issues. Does it take more time?? Yes. I would rather do it right the first time.

If your customer took there used mower home and mowed for 10 min and the engine locked up do to know fault of there's. I would do whatever it takes to make it right......... Yes it cost you!! Yes its an inconvenience!! Part of the reason why people buy from small engine repair people is they want a machine that works right!! If you have more equipment with problems, and customer complaints than happy customers. It might be time to look into the way you repair your equipment. You can't guarantee the life of a used mower...... But you can make sure it runs, and works to its very best and all maintenance is performed while you have it.
