BitFenix Announces Own Store for Spare Parts
BitFenix has announced that it has opened its parts store. This store is an online webshop operated by BitFenix itself where you can buy spare parts for your BitFenix cases.
Some examples of spare parts include side panels with windows, as well as new feet for your case. This is a convenient way of obtaining parts for expansion and customization, or extras for use with modding. In addition, you can open tickets with the support team for anything you can't find, so this is an easy way to find BitFenix spare parts that might otherwise be difficult to obtain.
The BitFenix Prodigy is one of the cases for which you can buy spare parts.
You can find the store at www.parts.bitfenix.com.
Pricing in the store obviously ranges from product to product, but overall it seems to be priced very reasonably. It is already open for business in the US, though it'll take a while before all of the part options have been listed. The store will also open in Europe sometime mid-July.
This company seems to have found a convenient way to continue to not honor warranty claims while making extra cash from die-hard fans out there.
It's safe to say the situation varies by company. But if they all just had a store where you can just buy these parts for low costs, it'd save them time and money, and save us consumers time and frustration.
Exactly what I came here to say. Corsair is one of my favorite companies. Their products, solid. Warranty, Honored. Rebates, Quick. Customer Service, Awesome.
