    Purchased a Steelseries Apex 3 through ******** (Amazon derivative) in December 2023. Had issues with my current keyboard so opened the sealed package and upon connecting the keyboard discovered that the {:< keys instead create the }"? characters and the }"? keys do nothing at all. Attached the keyboard to 3 other computers to the same result. Installed the Steelseries software on the first PC and used the reset feature which did nothing at all. Reaching out to Steelseries Support I am told, first that Amazon Marketplace resellers are not "authorized dealers" and they will not support a warranty claim. When told **** is not a Marketplace reseller, they then stated that **** is also not authorized. Note, they did NOT claim my serial number was invalid. Nor did they dispute that the product was new and in a sealed container. THEY VOID WARRANTY ON SELLERS. This is so arbitrary that it requires customers to be psychic when purchasing their products.

    BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

    When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

    BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this business, please let the business know that you contacted BBB for a BBB Business Profile.
