[CrackBerry Question]

After two months the backlighting on my new Passport failed. Rebooting, reloading software, updating the OS, none of that worked. But because I purchased it brand new, still sealed in original box and everything--but not from Blackberry online--Blackberry will not stand behind it and told me to get it fixed from where I purchased it, which is just some person in Florida who received it as a gift from an uncle someplace else, and sold it online.

This is a hardware/warrantee issue; why should the seller be responsible?! Now I have a phone without backlighting that I can't fix.

Thoughts?

Where was it purchased from. I know in Canada and US typically, the carrier is usually the first line of warranty/repair service.

The seller is responsible but the problem is you bought it from a random person. If you want warranty you must I repeat must buy from a reputable store be it BlackBerry, carrier or places like Amazon.
