Is my warranty for real?

[DennisGordon]

I bought my (wife's) T43 last week from an Ebay seller. NIB. It was overstock or company return and sold with no implicit warranty. I went to the Lenovo site and auto-detected the machine, and it shows it to be on warranty through July 2009 (based on a 7/06 shipping date) Most of the other T43's I'm seeing being sold as new come with 6 mo. - 1 yr. warranties. My son's Z61m has a 3-year, but it cost extra.

Am I just lucky, or do all the T43's have a 3 year warranty?

Yah all t43's come with 3 yr warranty. Mine is due May 2009.

It was overstock or company return and sold with no implicit warranty.

If it was sold with no warranty then be wary. The IBM/Levono web site has sometimes been a bit slow in updating for warranty status changes (which mostly occur for items sold on the sort of basis you describe), so you may find that the warranty status changes before too long.

Cheers,

Bill

It wasn't sold with no warranty, only with no guarantee of warranty. Hopefully they won't pull a fast one and change the status on me. Since this was new and unused, I don't see why that would happen, but time will tell I guess...
