    I know they are out of warranty but you don't expect them to stop working 18 months later do i have any come back or have i lost my £600.
    Should i contact pc world or the manufacture.

    Thank you for your help.

    You could try both of them.. PC world first perhaps, then the manufacturer.

    When the Liberals and Conservatives were in opposition, they both agreed that banks should pay back high bank charges to customers. Nothing seems to have happened since they came into power as a coalition. PPI Insurance has been sorted. Now they should turn their attention to bank charges and help customers get exorbitant charges refunded.

    Under the sale of goods act they have to last a "reasonable time" after purchase and statute puts a ceiling of six years (five in Scotland) on any claim.

    You are entitled to a free repair or replacement of the goods if they are not found to have conformed to contract due to a fault present when purchased AND have not lasted a reasonable time.

    After six months from purchase the onus is on the buyer to prove that the fault existed when the item was purchased - within the first six months it is down to the retailer to prove it wasn't faulty when it was bought.

    If you contact PCW I suppose they will ask you to get an engineer's report proving the fault.

    The above post constitutes my personal opinion on the facts in the post compared with my personal knowledge of the applicable legislation. I make no guarantees of its legal accuracy. If you are in doubt seek advice of a legal professional specialising in the area concerned.

    You should go and talk to some body at PC world. They will tell you the best options you are left with.
