RIPPED OFF by LAVATRONICS
This is serious - I need some advice
 
My mates dad asked me to get him a VU DUO as he likes the 3pm matches from R O I -
my mate has a tm800 (which he has just upgraded to a Vu+ Uno) and his dad liked what it could do but wanted something more sturdy shall we say.
 
So i ordered him up a VU DUO from Lavatronics
 
Serial no. is C0812800559
 
Everything went OK for 9 months old at the time i thought great its under warranty, no problem, I will  send it back for repair or exchange.
 
So i contacted lavatronics and sent it back,
 
They responded with this email,
 
 
 
Hi,
 
here is the comm's i have received from my technician.
 
Speak soon
 
Paul
 
 
And here's the return, I haven't touched anything but noticed on examination
 
 
As you can see, the parts that have been soldered in are incorrect and would damage the unit further.
***************
Understandably i called them up to clarify what this meant ? 
and the they imply somebody has removed those parts and thus voided any warranty and ability to repair it ?
 
I of course vehemently and rightly deny this - Why would i attempt to repair something that's under warranty, that illogical and without reason -not to mention i wouldn't have a frigging clue where to start.
 
So there it is make of it what you will -
 
From where i stand i was supplied sub standard already tampered with and possibly second hand or clone type goods that were obviously unfit for purpose had i known where to look in the first place ! 
 
So in the spirit of wisdom on the internet you can now compare your units when they arrive by looking at the pictures contained herein ! 
 
What shall I do next?
 
Thanks
