Just pulled out some old certificates, from their original holder and found that the older ones are getting quite worn at the creases due to age and may fall apart if I fold it again.
What method do you use to preserve the old papers?

Beelzy · 27 April 2018, 06:09 PM

I fold it up, put it in the box and don't futz with it. ;)

tyler1980 · 27 April 2018, 06:17 PM

My AD keeps it safe for me for one year

I don't own any vintage ones though.

Lol. I got the same offer, at no extra charge. And he wouldn’t take no for an answer. Couldn’t believe my luck.

Look at that, only a 1 year warranty. I guess the watches were only 20% as good back then! How far we have come.

Reminds me of a time a few years back when I was in the market for a new stove. I was comparing the Defy stoves (cheap) with the Miele stoves (pricey). The salesman mentioned that the Defy came with a 5 year manufacturer warranty whereas the Miele came with a 2 year manufacturer warranty. When I questioned him around the cheaper stove having a significantly longer warranty, his response was, and I quote: “Miele have such confidence in their product that they know nothing will ever go wrong with it, hence you’ll never need more than a 2 year warranty”.

I ended up going with a Smeg.

Hahaha, I don’t even know what the warranty on the Smeg is / was. By that point I was pretty over kitchen renovations. What amused me about the Smeg when they delivered it was the phrase on the box “Genuine Made in Italy Style”

I had never even heard of Miele until I moved to Germany. I can't believe how expensive their appliances are in relation to other brands. The wife and I recently redid our kitchen and laundry room and choose all Bosch/Siemens (obviously reputable brands) and it was about 1/2 price of what all Miele would have been. Don't get it.

Yeah, you can’t go wrong with Bosch. I went with a Bosch fridge / freezer and washing machine and have zero complaints
