Price of the Freerunner spare parts

Interesting,

 

 

Which country?

 

 how is the list of spare parts determined?

 

 

A simple question. If you sell a flashlight that takes standard batteries
must you hold a stock of 3 years of spare batteries for all your customers?

Or if you sell a car must hold 3 years of spare tires in stock for all the
customers? If you sell a Lamp, do you hold 3 years of light bulbs as spares?

 

basically, this goes to the definition of spare part. I’m curious how they
define it.

 

Steve

Hi Steve, 

 

There is a different between countries. 

It's a legal (rules and regulations) issue. in my county  you can not seal a
devises without the ability to seal spare parts. 

The regulator must to make sure that you have the ability to support the
costumers (include hardware maintenance and support) its mean that any
distributor / reseller need to hold a spare parts in stock (or to make sure
that he have a continuous supply of spare parts) for 3 years after the date
the costumer buy a device .

I thought about spare parts a while back. The Issue is this.
 
1. WHAT do I stock ( which parts)
2. How Many do I stock?
3. How do I sell them to you?
4. What will it cost?
5. how do you get them?
 
I suppose I could Offer component kits for sale. That would be the quickest
thing for me to do. Sell the whole bag of parts; fix it your self.
or build a business around this service.
 
 
Let me think about it. Throw rotten fruit at this idea if you like.

We will have our own hub in the EU. Neos will move directly from our 
factory to that hub.
    

 
What's about availability and pricing of spare parts like LCM, battery, 
housing?
Will there be any repair service?
 
cheers
