In this case if New Age Group is able to assist, the consumer must provide their original proof of purchase for any warranty to be carried out for repair or exchange only. In the event that the consumer would like to have an item credited, this must be done through the place that the unit was originally purchased by the consumer. Where possible please contact the place of purchase directly for any warranty service.
