FWIW, I happen to speak with the guy running Felder service dept and he confirmed that warranty starts from the time machine is received.

Hi Mike,
?
Did this sit in Felder warehouse due to your request or it was just new old stock. In case latter is true, I think you have a strong case. I would also factor in how much of a break in price did you receive. A compromise should be arrived at considering all these factors.

This is a bit late, but perhaps it'll help someone else make a decision in future. I have an N4400 that in the few months I've owned it has been fine. Except that the fence head casting cracked and felder seems to date their warranty from build date. Since this thing sat in their warehouses for two years before it was shipped to me, I'm having to argue about warranty coverage. Long story short, buy used as it doesn't seem to matter. Also, the replacement part is over half the cost of a driftmaster.
What a juice-shop this outfit is.
