Orvis 5wt Repair
« on: May 08, 2015, 10:01:10 AM »
Hi guys, was just wondering (Have contacted Orvis), if you think they would repair/replace my Orvis 5 weight. The tip broke a while back, and I cannot find any of my papers/receipts. The rod is about 17 years old. Any thoughts?

I broke my Orvis 2 pc 2 weight. Took  it to the agents at the time
 Did  not have receipt etc but they took it.  Could not replace with equivalent (out of stock ) and 2 months later they gave me a new and highly upgraded 4 pc rod

My T&T's have serial numbers on the blanks and they gave a warranty card to fill in, did Orvis not do the same? I'm sure they gave a warranty card for you to register??
As far as I can remember it was an unconditional breakage warranty?? They should replace.
