Vera-Fied Equipment

I visited their booth at the San Diego Kearny Mesa Lunar Festival 2012. I was sold a solar cell phone charger by Nate Miller. He told me he would sell me a new charger rather than a demo one, but proceeded to fumble around the booth and just grabbed parts from around the table and presented to me. I’m not sure he checked thoroughly to see if I had all the different adapter heads, but as long as the I would use with my phone was there, I wasn’t really bothered by a missing part. The box of the charger he gave me was slightly battered. That was fine. The bag the accessories came in was very wrinkled, but looking around the table I don’t think they had a box that looked any better so I just bought it and left. After all, Nate told me they have a «lifetime warranty». Just come back to their store around Miramar and they’ll replace anything. WOW. Sounds too good to be true right? Yeah, I fell for it like an idiot.
I followed the pre-​use instructions, but the charger never worked that well. I would have to charge it for the entire day before plugging my phone in. Then I would watch as the charge transferred for about 2 minutes and stopped. I don’t know how much battery life each charge was from those two measly minutes, but I figured any dent in electrical use from plugging in the all was fine by me. Also, my phone didn’t charge when plugged into the charger. I would have to fully charge, THEN plug by phone. So much for buying this in case I was stuck in the wilderness hiking and ran out of batteries… I’d probably dehydrate to death before the charger was ready…
I’m really carefully about taking care of everything I own. My stuff lasts for decades and still look nice. But the adapter head for my phone snapped in half! Clearly cheap material. I didn’t even keep it in the sun and I only used my charger once a week…
I e-​mailed Vera-​fied a while ago and they haven’t replied. I’m sure they’re unwilling to replace that adapter head (costs cents I bet…).
I can’t call them because both their business phone and the cell phone provided on the business card have been disconnected.
