Given this is in Australia, I’d have thought that a threat to enforce your rights under the Australian Consumer Law[1] would get some action from the manufacturer.

Essentially, there’s a statutory warranty that exists regardless of any warranty term quoted by the manufacturer, and the manufacturer is on the hook if the product is not fit for purpose or sufficiently “durable”.

A lot of the usual misconceptions about KYC in here (that you need ID, or how the government insists KYC is implemented).

I find Patrick McKenzie’s (patio11) deep dive into KYC [1] useful to understand more of why KYC exists and what is and isn’t in the law.
