Dale, would you send a three year old hearing aid to an all-make repair
facility, or would it be better to send it to the original manufacturer for
repair?

Hey, I just fit a 100 year old woman with new hearing aids. She lives alone
in her own home. She had 250 persons come to her 100th birthday party in
October!
Now, about your 107 year old with the good Acousticon eyeglass aids (good
stuff, those Acousticon eyeglass aids, your father and your grandfather fit
a lot of them), what harm would there be in including a notice to the
consumer that "Because new parts are no longer available, some used parts
were utilized in the repair of your hearing aid." At least it would be more
honest!
