I want to share a positive vendor experience; how is THAT for different?
I purchased my Valentine V1 radar detector directly from Valentine sometime back in 2003. Best $400 spent on my car, and the safety of my driving record.
Recently, it was failing to activate for the local school-zone radars, and was not giving me long distance notice of the CHP radar on my trips up to the PCNC events.
I called them (they had my information in their data bank) and they said to send it back, with a measly $45 check and they would inspect and repair as needed and send it back.
Well, about a week later it was back home. Looked no different, had no indication of what (if any) work had been done, and they had returned my check.
Improved? Heck yes! School zone radar is now registering two blocks away, and CHP is no longer popping up so damn close.
Nice to find a firm that stands behind their product, and even better when they do it for free.
