Within warranty repair (UK but international relevance)

Anyone else come across this a local person has his combo amp speaker pack up on him. UK manufacture and inside warranty but quoted by the company at least 10 days to repair and he would have to pay one way courier cost of a

30Kg lump. Maybe they would have refunded that but his bugbear was the 10 days plus 2 transits time delay, he would have had to hire a replacement for the coming weekend. I said I could probably turn it round in a few days with about 80 percent probability of not having to wait for spares. Repair was actually mainly an amp that does not seem to be aware that it will be sitting on a vibrating box in its working life, plus a couple of other minor problems. Anyway returned to owner in 3 days with cost a bit over the one way courier cost, anyone know what the hire cost is for 2 to 4 weeks of a 200W bass combo ?

Certainly likely to be several 100s of pounds. It'll vary hugely who you go to. Figure not less than £30 for a very competitive daily rate.

They charge £180 p.w. for a very nice Trace Elliot. Hire companies tend not to hire out rubbish.
