Buy iPhone Earphones at 0 €: Is it Possible?
Are your iPhone headphones broken? Don't want to buy another one? You are quite right !
Here is my tip to get new ones for 0 €.
I hate the iPhone. Ok that's not true (I'm an Apple Addict) but I really hate the Apple headphones that come with it. Why ?
Because they have a shelf life of less than 2 months. After this time, the sound deteriorates so much that I have a hard time knowing if I'm listening to Michael Jackson or Goldman!
Apple headphones are of poor quality
Apparently, I'm far from the only one because some of my friends also complain very often that they don't have any sound in one of the earbuds.
As a result, the most economical continue to listen to the noises of a pan while the others spend € 30 every 2 months to buy new ones ...
An indiscreet question to Apple
I was in the latter category a few months ago, before I asked the Apple seller a simple question: "Are Apple headphones guaranteed?».
Answer: "Yes, of course they are guaranteed 1 year like your iPhone". Miracle! I would never have thought that such fragile accessories could be guaranteed for 1 year. And I don't think I'm the only one!
New iPhone Earphones for 0 €
What does this mean in concrete terms? Let's see the 2 scenarios that may interest you:
1. Did you buy an iPhone naked or directly from an operator? You can exchange the headphones sold with as many times as you want for 1 year in the store in question.
2. Have you bought (or surely repurchased) Apple headphones in a store or on the Internet? You can exchange them free for 1 year in the store in question.
I have already changed my headphones 3 times in 6 months without paying 1 € ! Twice at Fnac and once in the Apple Store at the Louvre in Paris. In both stores, I had no problem exchanging my faulty headphones for free. Nice, no?
What do you need to redeem for free?
The 2 essential tips you need to exchange your iPhone headphones for free are:
1. The earphone sales receipt to prove your purchase. It seems normal but better to know it before leaving home.
2. The box of your Apple headphones. Why ? Because the bar code is indicated above. Moreover, be careful when you open the box for the first time not to tear off this precious bar code.
Savings Realized
Apple sells its basic white headphones for 29 €. We agree, it's a scam for an accessory that only lasts a maximum of 2 months in daily use ...
Last year i have spent 180 € by buying back headphones about every 2 months (and yes, I can't live without music). This year, I have already saved 90 € with this trick.
And if my new headphones deteriorate as quickly as the previous ones (which I have no doubts about), it will be 180 € savings in a year! Pretty good, right?
Are your headphones still under warranty? Are you already running to get them redeemed for free? Leave me a comment to tell me how the exchange went.
