Won't mention which person I am, but here's the summary: Person A: Owns a lens Person B: Borrows the lens, breaks it and offers to replace. A: Declines, no need. 1 year passes A: Now has need, requests the lens be replaced B: Agrees, though circumstances have changed and it's better for person A to buy and have the money refunded by B A: Does nothing 5 more years pass A: Another request for the lens to be replaced Do you think person A is unreasonable to request the replacement after 6+ years? (ignore the fact that lens prices are now 30% higher )I would say my answer depends on if you are person A or B 500px

I personally think person A has left it too long - and it would be totally at the discretion of person B. This is in no way legally binding ![]() lol courier wrote in post #14572262 A has left it too long tbh and the original declination of requirement to replace negates all future requests imo Cheers guys, that's sort of my feeling too.

(ignore the fact that lens prices are now 30% higher )Sounds like person B was being quite reasonable to agree to replace the lens after 1 year when person A originally told person B there was no need to replace. To then not replace the lens and 5 years later ask again seems a little rough on person B. If it was me, I wouldn't feel that I could reasonably ask for a replacement after such a long time as I had already been given the opportunity and not taken it - but everybody is different so it's a tricky one.

I ruined a friends lens when I dropped it along with my camera into the ocean back when I lived in the BVI. Guessed you were by not stating that in the opening details 500px

(ignore the fact that lens prices are now 30% higher )Honestly I'd say that it's a bit cheeky after five years to ask again. After the first decline and the year had passed and Person A asked again yes I would pay up but after so long it's a bit late. Anke
