Amazon works very efficiently within its rule structure, so that's always worth bearing in mind. This can be very good, but could be difficult.
If, for example, I buy a 5 DVD boxed set of something and it takes me two months to watch it all, if the last disc is faulty....it's too late. However, it's also a fraction of the High Street price, so the choice is there.
In Charlotte's case her claim is one of reasonable durability and she can pursue a claim for repair. She can send it to Pentax or go to a local camera shop to get a quote. It doesn't matter as long as it is independent.
With regard to location then if it was bought from Amazon.co.uk they are based in Slough so SOGA applies but Luxembourg is part of the EU anyway and claims can be brought under similar EU legislation since she resides in France (also part of the EU).
They are actually breaking the unfair contract terms act by claiming they are contracting out of SOGA for consumer transactions.
A case like this will be very easily won by the consumer.
Did you by any chance pay with a credit card??? If yes you can apply for a chargeback for receiving faulty goods under the consumer credit act section 1974 section 75 which makes the credit card company equally liable as the retailer.
Get in touch with your credit card company quoting section 75 of the consumer credit act and that you would like to do a chargeback on the transaction.
