Same thing happens with cameras and many other electronics. You get a new un it but if anything goes wrong you have a problem. In the case of the reel you pay for servic but in the case of some electrionics , the manufacturer will not work on it at all if its from a foreign market.

Overall I think the value is very good doing things this way. Only big issue with electronics is if it totally craps out right away. If it works for 6 months it will probably work for many years but it could crap out in say 2 months and then the ebay guy won't take it back and the manufacturer won't fix it.
