Hi Paul! At this point, I’d actually never bought a book from the Kindle store. So I was especially shocked when they kept replacing it because I was just putting my own books on to the device.

It’s just the standard warranty, not the additional one. I suspect you’ll probably get offered a discount rather than a replacement, since your Paperwhite is out of warranty, but it’s always worth asking!

Edit and update to my last comment. I called again and they sent me a replacement! Made my day. Thanks Amazon!!!

Did you read the last part of my post, where I said that Amazon makes money from the sale of ebooks not the Kindle itself, and that’s why they have such a great warranty? And let’s face it, if people were spending $100 on a product that doesn’t last for even a year, they’d obviously not buy a replacement, would give it bad reviews, and Amazon would make far less money over the long term. If Amazon thought it was *abuse*, they’d have a limit on how many replacements they’ll send out, but they don’t, because they know it’s worth it for them.

And as for Amazon being a good company: lol.
