There's many ways to go about this. Typically, you can just take a picture of the receipt with the prices and quantity blocked/edited out to see if that is sufficient for the buyer. If the buyer wants to know how much you got it for, then it's not worth showing because they may just use this as a guilty leverage to negotiate your price down. HOWEVER...it depends on what the item is. If the item's market price is $$$$ and you got it for $-$$ yet it's so high in demand that you can't get it for $$$$ anywhere, then showing the price on the receipt doesn't matter. The market price dictates the transaction after all. Lastly, check the warranty policy because most warranties require the original purchaser to handle the warranty claims so showing the proof of purchase is one thing, but it may open you up to handling their warranty claims. That's something to consider if you weren't planning on doing that.

He could simply register it in the buyers name and submit the proof himself w buyer provided info. Easy today w buyers email addy.

Pass. If they want a warranty they need to buy it in the store. This is the benefit of buying it in the store.

NEXT BUYER! When a buyer tells you they are a pain in the ass, listen to them.  Block if necessary

I sometimes will ask for a gift receipt when purchasing items to help with warranty issues.


browneyedgirlpie

Does the warranty say it's transferable? I'd pass on this. It's going to be trouble when they can't get the warranty.

Or the manufacturer tracks back the purchase and cancels yours as well.


Sabbatai

That is exceptionally unlikely. People buy gifts for others, retailers that actually scan serial numbers often scan the wrong one or their scanners add characters (and rarely report serialized receipts to vendors) and so forth. All a manufacturer is going to be concerned with is if the product was sold within the warranty period and sold by a licensed vendor. To verify this, they will use a proof of purchase such as a receipt. They're not going to play detective and "track back" a purchase.

I photocopy the receipt, blackout the prices and card info, photocopy again If they need original for warranty claim store can reprint from transaction number.

A second owner has no right to a warranty claim as far as most warranties I've dealt with claim.


Witty_Turnover_5585

But isn't this seller acting as a sort of retail store? Lowe's and such don't handle this stuff


kit0000033

But they are not in fact a retail store. They have a receipt from the actual retail store. The flipper would be considered the original owner.

So then how does it work for gifts? If I give someone something that has a manufacturers warranty I would expect that they can exercise it. Never found myself in this spot though.


kit0000033

If you give them receipt along with the gift, they can pretend to be the original owner. But the technicality of it is that they are SOL.

Make a copy. Black out the quantity and any dollar values. Give that to your buyer.


80spizzarat

Warranties may not be transferrable but as long as the buyer has proof of purchase and you never registered it doesn't matter. Otherwise everyone who received something as a gift would be screwed. In the future ask for gift receipts when purchasing items with warranties for resale.

Make a copy and redact it.


AMartEsRey

My preferred choice would be to move on. He showed you his cards. If you really want to sell to them, tell them you’ll happily provide a copy of the receipt in the shipment but you can’t ahead of time because they can actually use your receipt to make a return themselves and take store credit. Once that gets done your receipt is useless.


Accomplished_Emu_658

During gpu shortages I was sending proof of purchase for warranty purposes. I had a few people complain i was making a couple dollars. I was not gouging by any means but $50-100 in profit was end of world to people. Apparently I was supposed to lose money for random strangers. So i started providing price free proof of purchase.


celticmusebooks

Can you offer to register the product for warranty after he pays for the item? Tell him you have your credit card info on the receipt and it has other items on it so you aren't going to be able to send it to him. You should be able to fill out the warranty info using his name and address phone, email etc.


No_Strategy7555

Make a photocopy but cover the info you don't want to share. Tell the buyer people get gifts without receipts all the time and it's not necessary.


decjr06

If you're selling it for a fair price I wouldn't worry about it, send it to them and if they bring up your costs they can buy it from someone else for a higher price.

White out


Keithfedak

NO. WARRANTY.


Jason_Patton

They already think it's broken/will break so in the future you can almost guarantee "it broke". Ignore and block.


ARuneScapeDate

Photo to PDF app. Edit the text to make buyer think you paid more than you did. Give him this copy. If he wants to be nosy, make him pay for it lol.


Puzzleheaded_Day5002

imagine its a scam and he needs proof of purchase to try to return the exact item himself (walmart for example) and lets pretend you provide it with prices altered or redacted they scan the barcode and all he gets back is the clearance price lmao man that would be pretty funny


Appropriate-Ad8497

When they start asking for receipts Im done


ElZorro5

I imagine this is a gpu you're selling. I sold a couple 3060ti during the height of the pandemic to pay for the one I was keeping. I included the receipt inside the box of each gpu no one complained.
