Because I am an independant dealer, I just ship it back to my retailer, who ships it back to alpine under my name.
so far I've only had to ship 3 items back, two subs and one amplifier. All to Alpine coincidentally. The amp was replaced with a new one in 3 weeks, one of the subs was rejected for abuse from the customer, the other one was 'repaired' though I doubt they did because it looked like a breand new sub(possibly refurbished). The rejection took 2 weeks and the replacement took a month to be returned. You have to pay shipping to put in a warrantly claim.
