    Lisa, if its over 10 grand, yes warranted against defects in
    materials and workmanship for life..if its a 300 dollar semi-mount,
    five years should be the statute of limitations!..I have never
    retipped anything for free though, and would not, defect is - just
    waht you described, wear and normal use or abuse is the customers
    doing, you have no control over that- but a good quick polish is
    cheap, easy and gets you a great reputation with a customer- their
    socio-economic status to someone else (the gallery that you are sub
    contracting for) should have zero bearing on what you need to charge
    to make your living and that should begin at about 17. 00 an hour in
    a home studio and more if you have rent to pay on studio space...
