      On June 11 2023 I purchased a remote control ******* ***** from a third party seller on ******. It was a birthday present for my ***** ******** who received this gift on her birthday ***** *** ********* 
      On 10/21/23 my daughter texted me to let me know that the remote control car’s battery would no longer hold a charge. She said they had at the most only charged it two times prior.
      I got on ****** and sent the seller a message that the truck was not working right and wanted to know if it was under warranty. Got an email the next day saying they were not responsible. Said ****** handles warranties and to get on******’* app and “try” to return the item. Contacted ******** customer service who said their 90 day warranty had expired even though toy not played with until Sept 9. ****** said to contact Spin Master.
      On 10/22/23 I sent an email to Spin Master explaining how the ******* ***** broke after approx 36 days. I wanted to know if there was a warranty such as 90 days to 1 year. My daughter lives in ***** ******** so she could not say as they had discarded the paperwork assuming if there was a problem, warranty information could be found online. I got a response 10/23/23 from a ****** stating that they could not honor a warranty because the remote control car had been manufactured too long ago so that voided the warranty? Why would my warranty be void when I have nothing to do with the manufacture date…..I even sent them a copy of my receipt showing the date I ordered it from ******. This was something they requested.
      Tonight I got in their website Spinmaster.com to leave a review of the ******* ****** Of course I left a negative review because it broke in 36 days and no one was willing to help me. **** ******* ** **** **** ******* ******* **** ***** *** **** ** ****** ******* * ********* **** * **** ****** *** *** *** *** **** ****** * ****** *** ***** ** * **** *** ** **** **** **. * *** ******* ******* ***** ****** ******* ****** ***** ***** * **** ********

      I received a ******* ********* surprise mystery figure as a gift, but my character was missing an eye. So I filled out an email customer service form but got no response after at least three days.

      Here’s a key piece of information: When they ask for proof of purchase, YOU CAN CHECK OFF THAT IT WAS A GIFT if it was, which was in my case, so I did that.

      Since a few days have passed without a response, I called them during business hours. The representative was friendly and pulled up my email but he said that without a proof of purchase, they cannot ship out a replacement. This doesn’t make sense because on the form you can check that it was a gift, so in that case you are not able to provide a proof of purchase. Besides that, I was able to provide photos of the defects and packaging codes, just like they had requested.

      Before I contacted Spin Master, I did ask the person who bought it to try and get a refund/exchange but she threw the receipt away. Honestly, none of us expected this defect to happen. So she tried going to ****** (place of purchase) but they would not take it back since 1. It was a blind bag toy that was opened and 2. There was no receipt. As a result, the next best thing to do was to contact Spin Master but they were not able to help. Just my opinion, but this is only a toy costing around $5 and so much steps had to be taken but with no result. This is our first Spin Master toy and it was quite a disappointing experience:

      I would like a replacement of this product, or maybe something of comparable value if not available. Right now I have defective product and disappointed child. This wouldn’t have been so disappointing if the form literally lets you check off that it was a gift to avoid a proof of purchase issue. Thank you for understanding.
