Can this tank be fixed? Tank is messed up badly.

GothicVash · 02-17-2010, 02:32 PM

it is possible and ninja is replaceing my tank but that is due to the gel coat peeling away or cracking (got it right when ninja came out) they said that it happend on the older tanks. witch i belive is great customer service tho. if they will repair it for free and it is your fault that is what makes people want to go threw that company. its why i buy zippo lighters you can litteraly throw it into a lawnmower and they will replace it.

zippo not ninja DO NOT THROW A TANK INTO A LAWN MOWER. or even a ligher but accidents do happen. and its good to see a company willing to help people out when they do.

I am going to throw my 50" samsung down my basement steps and send it back to get another, what size do you think they'll send me?? <enter sarcasm> lol not likely they will replace that right??? but I was just trying to take it downstairs!! lol

oh and I threw my zippo into my lawnmower, and it still works!!!

Ok let me straighten some things out before this threads turns into a flame fest. The tank is NOT BEING REPLACED FOR FREE. This thread was simply made to see if the tank can be repaired. I talked to guy that works at Ninja, he told me that if I sent it in he will look at it. IF it is able to be repaired he will put another apoxy layer over it for free. So the tank would be safe to use. Nobody said anything about me getting a brand new tank for free so Idk where you guys got that from. As for not beleiving me Ill take some pics of my gearbag, my ego cases and my tank cover for you.
I never expected to get a new tank or to even have it repaired for free. I was going to have it repaired at my expensive BUT Ninja told me he may be able to fix it for free.

Ok here are some pics of my gearbag and the cases.

As you can see the bag is ripped and all of the stuff inside flew out. The case to my ego9 and sl94 are broken into 2 peices. I couldnt find my tank cover but thats all ripped. The tank was brand NEW never even seen the field when this happened. Why would I dmg it purposly? Get your facts straight guys.

Wow that is crazy.... story behind it would make it even better

This is also a great example of the durability on a rotor. There were 2 rotors in the bag but I havnt had any problems with them

Tank was damaged beyond repair = (. Looks like im buying a new tank.

Ouchies.
If it's at ninja can't you just buy a new cylinder from them and have them install your reg onto it to save a few bucks?

Cwatson325 · 02-22-2010, 11:05 AM

Ya, they said they would do that for $100. Just guna get a whole new tank for $120. Dont really trust the reg after that.

is ninja charging for the repair and if so how much? (they've got amazing customer service!!!)

After the gearbag fell off the truck it probaly got ran over by a 18-wheeler or somethin...............

mmm....i dont think it just falling of a pickup truck would do that kinda damage. im thinking more off he set it down on the side of the road and someone hit it to be a d**k, or it fell out on the highway and got hit by the car behind them.

that sucks though dude. sorry about your luck man. and i dont blame you for not trusting the reg.
