Philips charge cable – I have a Cool Skin HQ7780 which is approximately 3 years old. The outer cover on the charge cable has hardened and cracking away from the inner wires. I have contacted Philips however they are not at all interested. They have offered to provide a replacement cable ( does not include the shaver charge stand or the shaver) for $68.80 plus postage. I have informed them that I can purchase a new shaver for around that figure.

Philips class the cable as "consumable" and therefore not covered by warranty. I feel Consumer Affairs would not agree.

Maybe Philips will see this review and have a change of heart.

Hello Robert. Here we are, reading the review. :) Thanks for submitting it by the way. We understand your concern. Usually in this case we would advise to call the care center about it, but since you did that already, we will forward this internally to our relevant colleagues of the shaver department. We can't promise anything, but we will make sure it will be looked at once again. You will hear from us.
