RENZETTI

WARRANTY AND REPAIRS

Renzetti® branded fly tying vises purchased through an authorized dealer are covered by a limited lifetime warranty for as long as the product is on the market. * This limited lifetime warranty only applies to the original owner and is not transferable. This limited lifetime warranty is limited to repair or replacement of the product only, and does not cover direct, indirect, consequential, incidental, or any other type of damage resulting from the use of the product.

This limited lifetime warranty does not cover normal wear and tear, fire, theft, loss, discontinued products or negligence that causes damage to the product. Any intentional damage or improper or illegal misuse of the product voids the limited lifetime warranty.

Discontinued products may be replaced with different models where appropriate, as determined in the sole discretion of Renzetti. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitation or exclusion may not apply to you. This warranty gives you specific legal rights, which may vary from state to state. To qualify for warranty service, the original owner must return the product to Renzetti with a Product Service Form, or the warranty return will be refused and sent back to the customer.

All shipments to Renzetti must be freight paid. Renzetti reserves the right to determine whether to repair or replace any product covered by this warranty. Renzetti further reserves the right to change, modify, or discontinue the design of any product previously manufactured at any time with or without notice and without assuming any obligation to the consumer under the limited lifetime warranty. Discontinued products may be replaced with newer models when necessary.

*Products not purchased through an authorized dealer are not covered under this warranty. Please return all warranty products with a completed Product Service form.

Not Covered under Warranty:

  • Damage due to negligence, accident and/or wear and tear.
  • Attempts to dismantle, repair, or modify the vise by anyone other than an authorized Renzetti warranty service technician.
  • Improper hook placement and/or use of product.
  • Lack of maintenance to the product causing it to malfunction.
  • Damages and/or loss of parts returned to Renzetti

Q: How do I pay the fee?

A: For the quickest turnaround, please include a check or money order with your product. You can also request that we contact you for credit card payment, but please note that this may delay processing.

 

Q: How long will it take to get my vise returned to me if I send it in for service?

Q: I'm leaving on a fishing trip in a week. Can I get my vise back in time?

A: In most cases we are able to accommodate reasonable requests for expedited service and we recommend you follow up with a phone call or e-mail.
