    Was it made in China Pal? :(
    Obviously a fault but you were lucky, could have come off a lot worse.
    Don't over work the replacement.! :D

    I'll have to check the make of the ones in the Gym, I was joking about being made in China but unfortunately it was.
    Second one doesn't sound too good either.
    You don't need this hassle on top of everything else.
