Does anybody still fill out warranty registration cards?  Obviously talking all kinds of consumer goods, not just gun stuff.

Won't they still honor the warranty even if the card was never submitted?

Also, what is the point of the card in the eyes of the manufacturer?

Thanks.

I don't, would assume it's marketing/data mining efforts.

I dont.

One time my dyson vac had issues.  Contacted dyson, they never gave me a hard time and took care of me even though I've never sent in warranty info.

Data mining.

I rarely fill one out, I'm on too many mailing lists as it is.

I every case I've seen the warranty is valid regardless of whether the card is sent in or not.  The only reason for having those is so companies can get your info for marketing /selling.

Winner winner chicken dinner.



If I fill one out I will use my cats name.

I will usually get a few months worth of snail mail spam.

I can tell who sells / trades date when I do this.



State Farm sent my cat offers for insurance, I finally filled out on of the forms and sent it in.

Kitty was declined insurance because she had 6 DUI's and a vehicular manslaughter conviction.

I do not like propaganda. I throw away all papers including the manual.
