Here in NZ, we have the Consumer fair Trade law. Its a nice list of stuff to cover consumers, but for stuff like this something has to be fit for what its sold to do.
But for these molds, I know of many people who simple refuse to buy Mongoose products simply after seeing the issues I've had with there models. Some people have actually sold stuff straight after buying simply because they thought "This is crap. Too much effort to get it fixed". As soon as they replace the molds, I'll probably buy out and buy the 3 major fleets I don't have, until then, can't be buggered.
