the situation reminds me of 1950's American cars in Cuba, or the situation with MacBooks and other Macs. replacement is so expensive, some people just repair the product themselves.
is it necessarily a bad thing that, for some products in some times/places, people find repairing their own products the best option?
- kop316 8y agoIt is not, if the part was easier to replace I probably would have done that. However I was concerned other things would go out if the heating element died (it's not a complicated part, so I question the workmanship on it). I really wish I did not have to go to grey sources to get a spare part and the service manual, and that they would be designed with repairability in mind, I would pay extra for that.
