The items are generally sold by sellers that are not authorized (have no association with the manufacturer) and as such are sold without warranty. This could be as complex as a large retail store importing from a 3rd party overseas supplier or as simple as you buying directly from an eBay seller outside your market. On the one hand your entry cost is generally lower but if you need warranty service it could end up being more costly. Sometimes not taking a photograph can be as problematic as taking one. - Alex Webb
