MIPK Cricket Bats Warranty: A Comprehensive Assurance
MIPK Cricket Bats takes immense pride in delivering cricket bats crafted from the finest English willow sourced globally. Our commitment to quality and performance is unwavering. While we strive for excellence, we understand the inherent nature of natural products. Should you encounter any issues, rest assured that we are just a direct message or email away, ready to promptly address and resolve any difficulties.
1. Personalized Knocking Process
Elaboration: We strongly recommend that you undertake your knocking-in process until you feel completely at ease on the field. While a pre-knock is performed, we understand the uniqueness of each player. This process involves keepy-uppys, mallet hits, and soft ball throwdowns to ensure your bat is customized to your preferences.
2. Understanding the Bat’s ‘Mileage’
Insight: Similar to any regularly used item, the longevity of a cricket bat depends on factors such as frequency, force, and the type of balls hit. There’s no predetermined time limit for a bat’s lifespan; it naturally deteriorates with use. For example, the first edge might reveal a crack, a common occurrence with any bat.
3. Exclusions from Warranty Coverage
Clarification: Certain sources of bat damage fall outside the scope of our warranty. These include toe splits or breakage due to pulling out a Yorker, extensive damage to edges/shoulder, use of low-quality cricket balls causing point contact damage, and water damage.
4. Six-Month Warranty Coverage
Detailed Explanation: All new cricket bats come with a robust six-month warranty that covers manufacturing flaws not attributed to customer actions. This includes handle breakage, horizontal splits due to willow flaws, detachment, and splitting of blades.
5. ‘Goodwill Agreement’ and Bat Inspection
In-depth Clarification: Our warranty operates as a ‘goodwill agreement,’ contingent on a thorough bat inspection. MIPK Cricket Bats reserves the right to make all warranty decisions, ensuring fairness and transparency.
6. Manufacturing and Material Defects
Thorough Coverage: Our warranty comprehensively covers all manufacturing and material problems arising from fair use. We provide a free replacement period based on our assessment of applicability.
7. Limitations of Warranty Coverage
Key Insights: While our warranty covers all repairs resulting from reasonable use, certain damages remain unavoidable. Damage to the toe, being the weakest part, is not fully preventable, and surface damage due to lack of preparation or incorrect play is not covered.
8. Excluded Damages
Detailed Clarification: The warranty does not extend to damages caused by moisture, severe heat, inappropriate use or storage, or the usage of non-leather or composite balls such as bowling machine balls.
9. Pressing Techniques and Player Responsibility
Manufacturer’s Insight: MIPK Cricket Bats employs pressing techniques focused on the blade’s face, excluding the edges and toe. Suitable play is, therefore, the responsibility of the batsman. Any damage to the toe or edges is not a fault of MIPK Cricket Bats.
10. Commitment to Customer Service
Customer Assurance: At MIPK Cricket Bats, we take great joy in offering exceptional customer service. If you encounter damage to the toe or edges, please reach out to us. We are likely to provide a refurbishment out of goodwill. However, it’s crucial to note that recurring defects may require the bat owner to take responsibility for repairs.
