Loosing one's temper with a humanoid phone voice isn't going to get you anywhere

Granted all buyers of locks are now in a quandry, and patience is wearing thin

Getting involved with a lawyer is equally futile. Class action suits rage on for years and

the poor consumer wins up with pennies and the legalshysters wind up with millions

I had a call this afternoon from a rep from Kryptonite, I was polite with her and she

was polite with me. Told me to go to their web site and follow the directions therein.

Which I did. If I get a replacement fine, if not, fine also. its not as if 40$ is going to

break my piggy bank

What I will do some time in the future is to get a lock made in AMERICA and not in GD

China and then sell my hi end bike and get something far less expensive and attractive

to potential thieves, and ride it happily and get off the snob infested bike paths

Same thing happened when I owned a hi end German sports car, starting with P.

Stolen twice. The insurance went to mid 4 figures per year, sold the car though it

was the finest thing I had ever driven and missed it sorely . Have owned a non descript

US bilt thing since and no one ever looks twice at it, fits me fine and the insurance is

mid 3 figures

Rant and rave all you like but JEEEZZZZZZ 40$ or 50$ to protect something one might

pay several thousand $s for, priorities seem a bit squeewed to me
