Question Do I pay for the UPS postage when returning?

I have a 3 light RROD ready to return to MS via UPS. I know the repair should in theory be free, but do I pay for the delivery costs? If so, how much does it tend to be?

Thanks.

Of course not. That would be like on your icecream and calling it chocolate sauce.

they should email you a label to print out and stick on a cardboard box (which you'll have to provide). Then just ring them and arrange a collection.

I did that and they didn't turn-up. Not sure that the online collections thing actually works.

if you nip their heads enough, on the phone, they will provide a box.
