I bought this straightener off amazon.com after it being suggested by a Sephora customer service rep because I live in Canada. After i received it, I went to register it with GHD aand it wouldn't work. I contacted GHD directly and they said they would not honour a warranty, and I called Sephora and they would not honour it either.
GHD: "Thank you for your response. If Sephora wants to warranty it, that is Sephora's choice, but ghd North America is not able to warranty any stylers that are affiliated with Amazon.com. About 99% of the counterfeits in the US are coming from that website. We have a corporate policy in place at this time that states that we are only able to validate the warranty for stylers coming directly from an authorized retailer. I am sorry for the confusion, but the proof of purchase needs to be directly from Sephora in order to validate the warranty."
I did buy from THE SEPHORA AMAZON SHOP/amazon.com/sephora. Neither will honour the warranty so i am returning it...It's $200.00 and if it breaks next week I'm screwed, no one will return it. If you buy directly from sephora.com there is no problem. don't make the mistake i made, go directly to sephora. Would ahve been nice if the Sephora employee who orginally suggested I buy it from amazon would have let me know this.
