Sheesh. So I sent it off to the manufacturer's repair shop in Rhode Island, and the estimate came back for close to $100. To replace a watch battery. That probably wholesaled for $3.00. The actual price turned out to be $96 and it took a month. http://tinyurl.com/ma8t2ju My Tag Heuer battery was $15 with a pressure test. I would never pay 1/2 the price of an old watch for a battery replacement. I bet you buy your printers at WalMart too! newegg.com for the throw-aways. |
