That is exactly what Bret got....something (a promise) that gave him nothing. That's called a lie.
Politicians have made lying an acceptable past time in America these days. I suppose the PC crowd would deem it haute culture'.
My parents taught me that lying would earn me an a$$ beating.
How does one abuse a claw hammer by driving and/or pulling nails? That is, after all....what it was designed and made for...no? Having a properly tempered and hardened face, how many nail strikes would it take to wear out a nail hammer? I have seen a few with worn grooves in the claw..but none worn enough as to render them useless.
So...I'll accept that a maker would refuse to warrant a claw hammer with the claws snapped off because it was used by an idiot as an impromptu sledge hammer. Or perhaps if it was rendered dead soft by being through a house fire.
Otherwise...any reputable company is light years ahead...whether they feel right or wronged...to ship a new replacement along with a note apologizing for the failure of their tool, with hopes that the new one performs as advertised.
That's called maintaining positive public relations. It is also what keeps folks coming back and recommending the product manufacturer to their friends and peers....which by the way, amounts to a lot more than an occasional freebie hammer.
