Could I get another mouse?

MattTheMayor

I have a Logitech G300s

 

My house flooded about 3 months ago and luckily all my computer stuff were safe and sound. We had to live in a hotel for about two months and of course I couldnt use my PC. So I had to put it in a box in my garage while my house was being fixed up. Fast forward two months. I finally get back into my house. PC is fine after replacing the thermal paste. Everything is fine except for my mouse. A mouse ironically ate my mouse haha. It bit through half the wire and I thought it wouldn't work, but once I plugged it in my PC, it was working normally. So I put some electrical tape on the wire and used it normally.

 

But recently, or a week after using my mouse, it frequently disconnects and reconnects at any angle except for when the wire is straight.

 

Am I eligible for getting a brand new mouse through the warranty? Sadly, I don't have the receipt or the box anymore since I had to throw stuff away after my house flooded. I was just wondering if it's a legitimate reason to contact RMA haha

Without reciept you wouldnt be able to do it,also unless they advertised the G300s as waterproof you wouldnt get a penny

Try RMA but it might be hard without the receipt. However if you registered the mouse on its website (if it has an option to do so) then I think they can trace the mouse's ownership to you and possibly work out an RMA.

No water damage, it's just that a rat bit into the wire

Just buy a cheapass RedDragon for now and save to get a nicer Logitech/Corsair/Razer mouse. I could recommend the G602 for it doesn't have a wire, so your tiny little friends couldn't interfere with your mouse.

Did you buy it from a local store or from their website? If you got it from a local store, you can get another copy of the receipt.
