    If this is you:
    http://cgi.ebay.com/Sony-TZ31WN_W0Q...mQQ_trksidZp1638Q2em122QQ_trksidZp1638Q2em122

    the seller stated in the auction that the laptop was a few months old. So, if he is the original purchaser of the laptop, I believe he should be able to transfer the remainder of the warranty to you. Once the warranty is under your name, you should be able to extend that warranty. At least that's how it works in the U.S.

    But, good luck.

    Well, I hope he is able to find the receipt. If not, you could always just work with Sony directly. If he bought the laptop from them originally, they should have details on the sale. Otherwise, based on the serial number, they would know when the laptop was shipped to the store from whence it was purchased.

    Sorry, that I can't answer for you as I'm in the U.S. I think you should contact Sony directly and they can answer your questions and hopefully help you out with the warranty.
