If I purchase from you, how do I register my product so that I am covered under pioneers warranty? Do I say I purchased from Amazon?

Sorry, don't know. I am frankly disappointed with the unit and with Pioneer. The AV stopped working after a power outage 2 weeks and Pioneer's customer service is essentially non-existent. I was lucky to speak with a support rep about a year ago but that too was a waste of time in terms of getting useful info. I'm presently using an older Yahama which has never given me a problem in 5 years. Would not recommend the unit or the company.

I don't know if it is right in every case or not, but generally unless explicitly instructed otherwise, I do not register products for the warranty when I make a purchase. If I need warranty service I just produce a proof of purchase. Usually, registering just seems to get me more information than I really want from the manufacturer. Sometimes, the exception can be for something that may be getting a software upgrade in the future and you must be registered for them to know who to send the notice of upgrade to. I purchased the same Pioneer amp as you are considering. Did not register.

You register the product at the Pioneer website. This will activate the manufacturer 's warranty.

As I understand it, as long as your purchase is from an authorized Pioneer dealer then you are covered under their warranty. I don't think you have to actually register your product to be covered but will need to have proof of purchase.

Not for Elite products. On the Pioneer Electronics "where to buy" web page it says:"Pioneer does NOT authorize any dealers to sell Elite-branded products on the Internet (only in-store sales are permitted). Therefore, any Elite-branded product purchased on the Internet is NOT authorized, which means that it does NOT carry the manufacturer's limited warranty and does not qualify for any manufacturer's rebate."In my experience I have learned that they absolutely adhere to that policy when it comes to the warranty.

If Amazon or the vender is authorized by t mobile then you can place your claim through t mobile. If you bought the device from an unauthorized vender then your are out of luck. The warranty states if you purchased the new device the 12 month warranty begins immediately from the date it was first used on the t mobile network or the date of purchase of the device, whichever comes first.

Yes. I had read the same thing, but I confirmed that Amazon purchases are covered (I purchased directly from Amazon, not a 3rd party through Amazon)

I'm sorry, but that isn't helpful. Details? How did they cheat you? What claims did they make to deny you a rebate. How did they differ from what you were promised. Has Amazon responded to any contact you've made? Just saying you were cheated doesn't give the independent reader any way to judge the merits of your claim or any information on why Amazon's rebates can't be trusted.

Read this link: http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/Where-To-Buy/Pioneer+Home+Audio+Video+Authorized+Internet+DealersIt states: "*Pioneer does NOT authorize any dealers to sell Elite-branded products on the Internet (only in-store sales are permitted).

I bought this on Amazon because I trust this site. In case of any problems I know I can contact Amazon and the problem would be dealt with immediately. But yes you get the same thing as on the website unless they have a special deal like you said.

That's the first I've heard of having to register your product. I'm assuming though that they would send instructions with the product. If not then try contacting them for instructions. I couldn't find a phone number but email worked. Maybe this is another excuse for them not to honor their warranty. Good luck.

Hi Ryan,if i was you i will only buy product from a trusted company, as i am a member with Amazon , my recommendation is to buy from amazon no other company.

You don't have to register it. You just have to mail it back, with your original product receipt and $4.95 for shipping and handling and they will replace it.

Pioneer does not allow the sale of any Elite line products online. If you do, you will not get a manufacturer's warranty. see http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/PUSA/FindStore/Unauthorized+Internet+Dealers

I just spoke to square trade and the warranty is only good on a product purchased at Amazon. You can not buy it from another site and register it with square trade

I called and spoke to someone on the phone and they told me it has to be an Amazon purchase, however someone else asked this same question and there was a bit of discussion on the topic. I decided to buy the warranty here on Amazon and just give it a shot. They did accept my registration and my receipt from a product purchased somewhere else. I sent them a copy of my receipt as part of the registration and then called to confirm that everything was good to go.Personally, I'd much rather buy electronics here from Amazon whenever possible. The only reason I didn't buy my computer from Amazon was because they couldn't match the student discount I got elsewhere.
