Re: Liabiltiy Waiver Agreement??

A lawyer friend of mine recently blogged about implied warranties for
consumers, from the other side (what rights does a buyer have), and
David's words of wisdom might be as wise as they are succinct.

Clearly marking that something is sold "As is" or "With all faults"
might cut into re-sale value, but it is probably also the safest way
of covering your bases:
"The sale of a good carries an implied warranty that the good is
merchantable.=A0 This means that the good is of fair average quality, is
fit for the ordinary purpose for which the good is to be used,
conforms to the promises of fact made on any labels, or would
otherwise pass without objection based on industry standards."

His full post is here:

ardware-warranty-at-your-own-peril/

Hope that's helpful, would love to hear how it turns out.
