Query: WORKED FOR 3 MONTHS

I bought this item for my mother. She copied about 40 CDs over a 3 month period when it stopped working(right at the 3 month warranty period cutoff). She took it to a repair shop who said the microchip went out and would cost $50 to repair (more than 1/2 of what it cost to purchase it 3 months earlier). I contacted Amazon who said they would normally replace it, but couldn't because they couldn't get anymore from the manufacturer. Amazon took it back and refunded most of my money (less a $18.98 restocking fee). I'm kind of miffed about that, but I guess it's better than nothing. If it had worked, it would have been a great deal. All other duplicators that I've priced cost at least 3 times as much. I'm sure this one could have been a fluke and others work great, but I think this item needs a longer warranty period from either the manufacturer or Amazon for just this reason.
