I bought my O'Neill wettie through the internet from a US distributor few months ago. It needs some warranty repair, so I wonder if anyone knows the Australian O'Neill centre (if there is any), or I need to send the wettie to the US? Has anyone had this problem?
I would appreciate any help or info.
Thanks

I think you will now find the downside of not buying locally.

These blokes do a fantastic job above and beyond what is expected. I bust a zip on an old rip curl took it there and they replaced the entire section cost $25. But not only that they patched all the little holes and redid some flakey seams for no cost.
Like any warranty the details are in the fine print....
Have a look at this one for "Pelican" camera cases
