Nordost repair

Anyone know if Nordost will do repairs on used, non dealer/private sale cable?

I'm awaiting an email response from them, perhaps someone has insight on what Nordost will/will not do?

I have a feeling my 9 year run with a  FREY II phono cable purchased for 1/3 of list is about to get expensive.

I'm hoping repair cost will make sense to do IF, possible.

How can they legally destroy your personal property??

I know. That practice always bothered me. I assume they warn you. But you had better be sure you did not accidentally get fakes. Not only did you get duped… then to add insult to injury they will not give them back.

If anyone had NordOst done destruction of cable without return, they should chat here and organize group litigation bang.

@ghdprentice ,

Ah, I didn't think far enough. Yes, they must warn you that if you send it in and they find it's a counterfeit, they will keep it and destroy it. By sending it in, you're giving them your consent to do so.

Imagine finding  out your "best" cable is  MIC!

My situation is just an RCA re terminated. Guessing L/R would  be redone to keep length conformity?

I feel a $ pricey invoice in my future. Just may take a good look to see if DIY is doable. 

Anyone have success DIY reterminating Nordost IC's?
