⚖️ Seller Warranty & Marketplace Dispute Conciliation

Activate the warranty if, after following the usage instructions and easy troubleshooting tips, the tape measure exhibits a manufacturing defect, such as persistent retraction failure, a lock that doesn't work even after cleaning, or if the tape itself has a manufacturing defect (e.g., loose seams, factory-damaged material), indicating a defect in manufacturing.
