TAM came to market with a 3-year warranty. Mine runs out in March of 2002. Phone support for TAM is a special number where you get extra special service and you do not get put on hold for 30 minutes. Some TAM's were sold new a couple of years ago and warranty is running out. I also got the prevoius owner's receipts with my package.
Nobody wants to let the pen and pencil set go when they sell.
It must be pretty special.
