Rosy Gold Nouveau Mini Massager: review

Rosy Gold Nouveau Mini Massager at a glance — this is what you get

Rosy Gold Nouveau Mini Massager is a mini version of the classic wand massage wand: a rounded body in glossy rose-gold-colored plastic, a soft black head on a short flexible neck, and a single button. The manufacturer describes it as the choice for anyone who thinks a regular wand vibrator is too big and too intense, and highlights that it fits in one hand and is charged with a USB cable.

What you can actually confirm in numbers is shorter than in most reviews, and that in itself is the most important information about the product. The manufacturer does not publish any public specification table for this item. The product page includes the brand, item number RG006, the EAN number, a product description, and a series of images—but it does not include any dimensions, weight, battery capacity, runtime, charging time, sound level, IP rating, or warranty period. Everything in this text related to dimensions and materials therefore comes from the Swedish shops’ own product pages and is marked as shop information, every time.

The shop information, on the other hand, is consistent. Adult lists the total length as 12.5 centimeters and the maximum diameter as 3 centimeters, Vuxenkul gives the same two measurements, and Blush Me and SexleksakerOutlet both write "size 12.5 cm x 3 cm". Four independent shops with the same two numbers is stronger evidence than a single number in a feed, even if none of them is the manufacturer.

This review is about the item with EAN 8719934000841, the manufacturer’s item number RG006. The number is verified in the page source on the manufacturer’s own product page, where the gtin13 field contains exactly the same EAN number, and it is also shown in the specification table on Vuxenkul. It’s worth checking, because Rosy Gold sells a similar model called Nouveau Mini Curve Massager under item number RG007 and EAN 8719934000858—another product, not a color variant.

In Sweden, the item is sold by four shops at prices between 349 and 599 SEK, and three of them had it in stock at the price check on September 12, 2026.

What a mini wand is—and what it isn’t

A wand massage wand is originally a body massager: a long handle, a large rounded head, and a motor powerful enough to work through muscles. The classic shape is 30 to 40 centimeters long and is held with the whole hand around the shaft. The mini versions, like this one, keep the same design language but shrink the entire unit to something that fits in the palm of your hand.

The difference isn’t just size. A large wand head spreads the vibration over a wider area, while a small head concentrates it into a smaller point. So when the manufacturer states a maximum diameter of three centimeters for this model—or rather, when the shops state it—that means it behaves more like a large clitoral vibrator than like a muscle massage device, regardless of what the word “massager” in the name suggests.

The second thing that sets them apart is the motor compartment. A full wand has room for both a large motor and a large battery. A product that’s 12.5 centimeters doesn’t. That’s the technical background for why the runtime of the mini wands in this class is short compared with its larger siblings—and that’s also why the lack of published battery figures matters more here than it would on a larger model.

Who is behind Rosy Gold

Rosy Gold isn’t a standalone brand but a house brand for the Dutch distributor ONE-DC, formerly known as EDC Wholesale. It’s immediately apparent in the item numbers: RG001 for Nouveau Wand Massager, RG006 for Mini Massager, and RG007 for Mini Curve Massager, all with EAN numbers in the same series starting with 8719934. The range includes not only vibrators but also handcuffs, chokers, blindfolds, lights, and door hangers in the same Art Deco–inspired visual language.

That’s relevant to what you can expect from the documentation. A house brand from a wholesaler is designed to fill a price and design niche in the retailer supply chain, not to compete on spec sheets. ONE-DC’s product pages are built for shops that will be placing the order, and the technical data sits behind login in the partner portal instead of being published openly. For a consumer, that means the information you find online is almost always the shops’ rewording of the same short product text—and that any figure that shows up with a single retailer without being found with the manufacturer should be treated with suspicion.

What you can actually determine from the manufacturer’s side is where the product is placed in the catalog. ONE-DC lists RG006 under the category Waterproof Vibrators. That’s the manufacturer’s own categorization—and therefore the manufacturer’s own claim that the product is waterproof—but it’s a claim without a rating, and that difference gets its own section a little further down.

Mini Massager, Mini Curve, or Nouveau Wand— which is which?

Three products in Rosy Gold’s Nouveau series are close together and get mixed up regularly in Swedish stores, not least because they share both the design language and the product text.

• Nouveau Mini Massager (RG006) — the model this text is about. Straight, teardrop-shaped grip with the head aligned with the body. EAN 8719934000841.
• Nouveau Mini Curve Massager (RG007) — the same size class, but with a curved body and the button positioned at the bottom. The manufacturer explicitly states ten vibration modes for this model. EAN 8719934000858.
• Nouveau Wand Massager (RG001) — the full-size wand in the series, with a flexible head and, according to the manufacturer, ten modes. EAN 8719934000797.

Separating them matters for a reason that has nothing to do with taste: information circulating online about weight and cable length for "Rosy Gold mini massager" is often not possible to tie to a specific article number, and several of the pages that have published it are no longer available. Check the EAN before comparing two offers that look identical.

Materials and build quality: two materials, one seam

The material issue is the only feature of an intimate product that neither experience nor care can compensate for, and it determines whether the product can still be cleaned properly after a few years. The shops differ here, and that in itself is a find.

Vuxen states the material as ABS + silicone. Vuxenkul states ABS, silicone. Blush Me and SexleksakerOutlet instead say the product is "made of ABS plastic with a rose-gold finish" and do not mention silicone at all, even though the same pages describe the head as soft. The manufacturer’s own text mentions a "wonderfully soft head" but provides no material name at all.

The reasonable interpretation of the three pieces of information together is that the glossy rose-gold colored body is ABS plastic and that the black head is silicone—which is also what the manufacturer’s own close-up images show: a high-gloss, hard surface on the body and a matte, softly ribbed surface in the head. But since the manufacturer doesn’t specify it, it should be read as a shop detail that two of four shops omit, not as a materials declaration.

Where the silicone is—and where it isn’t

The split between ABS and silicone is common in this price range and has a clear consequence. Both materials are non-porous, meaning there are no microscopic cavities where residue can get trapped, and both can therefore be cleaned properly. The difference is tactile and practical: silicone is soft and conforms to the skin, while ABS plastic is hard and glossy.

What deserves attention is the seam. In this design, the silicone head sits on a short neck that is screwed or pressed down into the metallized collar on the body, and the manufacturer’s own close-up shows a visible joint between the two parts. A joint is always the place where residue collects, and it should be included in the cleaning every time—not just when the product feels dirty. Compare with a model where the entire body is covered in silicone: in that case, there is no transition at all between the two materials.

The glossy rose-gold surface also deserves a note, because it’s the first thing you notice. A high-gloss metallized plastic surface shows fingerprints and scratches more clearly than a matte surface, and it becomes slippery when it’s wet or has lubricant on it. For a product that’s twelve and a half centimeters long and is meant to be held with a few fingers, this is a real drawback—not an aesthetic detail. Vuxen states that the base and texture are smooth, which confirms that there’s no grip pattern to rely on.

Phthalates, plasticizers, and what the material labeling says

Phthalates are a group of plasticizers used to make plastic—especially flexible PVC—more pliable. The Swedish Chemicals Agency (Kemikalieinspektionen) describes them as substances that can affect the endocrine system and make reproduction more difficult, and several of them are restricted or banned within the EU in a large number of products. Intimate products are a recurring supervisory category, precisely because flexible plastic sits against skin and mucous membranes.

Vuxen explicitly states that the product is body-safe and free from phthalates. It’s a store claim, not a manufacturer declaration—the manufacturer writes nothing about it. However, the technical background makes it plausible: neither rigid ABS plastic nor silicone requires phthalate plasticizers to achieve their properties. ABS is rigid due to its own polymer structure, and silicone’s softness comes from the silicone chains’ own network. The material designations that, on the other hand, say nothing at all about plasticizers are "TPE", "TPR", and "jelly rubber"—and none of them are present here.

What no source states is whether the product is latex-free. Neither the manufacturer nor any of the four stores mentions latex. For anyone who is allergic to latex, it’s worth asking the store before buying, because reactions on mucous membranes come faster than on normal skin.

Measurements: 12.5 centimeters total and a 3-centimeter head

The manufacturer does not publish any measurements. Vuxen states the total length as 12.5 centimeters and the maximum diameter as 3 centimeters in its quick facts table. Vuxenkul lists a length of 12.5 cm and a diameter of 3 cm. Blush Me and SexleksakerOutlet both list "size 12.5 cm x 3 cm". Four stores, the same two numbers.

A discrepancy still needs to be reported, and it’s within the same store. Vuxen’s bullet list at the top of the product page says "Length 13 cm", while the specifications table further down on the same page says 12.5 cm. That’s a rounding in the marketing text, not a second measurement, and 12.5 centimeters is the figure supported by three other stores. Rely on 12.5.

It’s easy to underestimate what those measurements mean in practice. 12.5 centimeters is about one tenth longer than a standard credit card and shorter than most mobile phones. The manufacturer’s own image, where the product is shown in someone’s hand, indicates that it fits across the palm with the head outside the index finger. So it’s a product that really fits in a toiletry bag or a jacket pocket—which is the whole point of the category, and the single strongest feature of this model.

Weight is not published by anyone. Neither the manufacturer nor any of the four Swedish shops states a single gram. It matters more than it sounds on a wand, because a heavier body means you have to press less yourself—and because the shiny surface in this design means that your grip rests entirely on the friction between your fingers and the plastic. For comparison, Satisfyer lists 122 grams for its Mini Wand, and 120.9 grams for Little Wand.

Ten settings and a single button

The interface is as simple as it gets. The manufacturer describes it itself in two sentences: press and hold the button for a few seconds to turn the product on, and change settings by briefly pressing the same button. The button sits in a small gray ring on the top side of the body, visible in the manufacturer’s own close-up.

Here there’s a gap in the manufacturer’s documentation that’s worth pointing out, because it says something about the entire product. The manufacturer’s public product text for RG006 states nothing about the number of modes at all. All four Swedish shops list ten: Blush Me and SexleksakerOutlet write “10 vibration functions”, Vuxen “10 vibration programs”, and Vuxenkul “10 different functions”. The manufacturer, however, explicitly states ten modes for the two sister models in the same series—Mini Curve Massager and Nouveau Wand Massager. So it’s likely that it’s indeed ten, but it’s the shops that say so—not the manufacturer.

How you switch modes—and why it matters that the button is the only one

With a single button there’s only one path through the programs: forward. You move on step by step, and you come back to the starting point only after you’ve gone through the entire list. What can be concluded is that it makes jumping back a step impossible—if you want to go down from mode six to mode five, you have to press nine times, assuming the list is ten modes long and closes in a ring.

That’s the direct cost of an interface without plus- and minus buttons, and it’s worth weighing against the advantage: there’s nothing to learn, nothing to misunderstand, and no modes hiding behind long presses. Compare it with a product that has separate controls for intensity and patterns, where you can change one without the other also following along.

The manufacturer does not state how the ten settings are distributed between steady speeds and pulsing patterns, and none of the shops do either. The pattern in this product category is that the first settings are constant speeds with increasing intensity, and that the last are rhythms and pulses, but since nothing is stated anywhere in the manufacturer’s materials, it can only be taken as a general observation about the category, not as a description of this article.

The flexible head — what “lightly flexible” means

The head is mounted on a short neck and can tilt away when you press it against the body. Vuxen describes the feature as “elasticity, lightly flexible,” Vuxenkul as “flexible head,” and “super-soft silicone.” The manufacturer only writes “soft head” for this model, but for the sister model Nouveau Wand Massager it explicitly states that the head is flexible.

The flexible head is the functionally most important detail on a wand of any size. A fixed head forces you to position the entire product at the right angle to the body; a flexible head lets the contact surface follow along as the angle changes, and that makes a difference specifically on a short product where the wrist has less room to move than on a thirty-centimeter-long wand. The manufacturer’s own images show how the neck is ridged in multiple rings — that construction exists precisely to allow bending without the material folding into a sharp kink.

The counterargument also fits here. The more the head gives way, the more of the vibration is absorbed in the neck instead of going into the body. It’s the trade-off between a compliant and an effective head, and it is determined by how stiff the neck is. How stiff the neck is for just this model is published by neither the manufacturer nor any shop.

Noise level: a number that doesn’t exist

Neither the manufacturer nor any of the four shops publishes a measured decibel value for this product, and none of them even describes it as quiet. The manufacturer’s text mentions “powerful vibrations” without saying anything about sound. That means that every decibel figure you see for this model either comes from someone else’s own measurement or has no source at all.

What can be established purely technically is that a small rotating motor in a hard plastic housing as a rule can be heard more than the same motor in a housing covered with silicone, because hard plastic transmits and amplifies the vibration instead of damping it. Here the entire body is hard ABS plastic, and that doesn’t speak for a particularly quiet construction — but that is a conclusion about material choice, not a measurement value.

A practical tip that applies regardless of model: place the product on a soft surface when it’s running. A hard tabletop works like a resonance box and noticeably amplifies the sound.

Water resistance: “yes” without any rating

The manufacturer places the item in the category Waterproof Vibrators in its own catalog. Adult states “Waterproof: Yes,” Vuxenkul states “Water-resistant: Yes,” and Biuky lists watertightness among the product’s features. So they all say the same thing — and none of them says how much.

What an IPX rating would have told you

Enclosure classes are defined in the international standard IEC 60529, and that is the only thing that makes the word “waterproof” measurable. The number after IPX indicates exactly what the product has been tested for. IPX4 means splashing water from all directions, IPX6 means powerful water jets, and IPX7 means submersion in water to a depth of one meter for 30 minutes. Those are three completely different things, and only the last one means the product can be placed in a bathtub.

No IP rating is published at all for this product. In practice, that means you know that the manufacturer considers it waterproof, but not to what extent. The cautious interpretation — and the only one that can be justified without a rating — is to treat it as resistant to running water during cleaning, but not as a product to be submerged. For comparison, Satisfyer specifies IPX7 for both the Mini Wand and the Little Wand, and writes out exactly what that means.

There’s a design detail that speaks to the product’s advantage in this matter. The manufacturer’s picture of the charging cable shows a magnetic charging puck instead of a connector that needs to be plugged into the product. A magnetic solution doesn’t require an opening in the housing, and it’s precisely that opening around a charging connector that is otherwise the weakest point on a waterproof product. That makes the claim more credible — but it doesn’t replace a rating.

Cleaning, lubricant, and storage

Rinse the product in lukewarm water after each use, and use fragrance-free soap or a cleanser intended for intimate products. Pay extra attention to the joint between the silicone head and the metallized collar — that’s the only place on the product where residue can remain. Wipe it off and let it air-dry before putting it away. Since no IP rating is published, you should keep the charging puck’s contact surface dry and avoid submerging the product, even if it is described as waterproof.

The choice of lubricant follows from the material. Use a water-based lubricant. A silicone-based lubricant should not be used on silicone surfaces — it breaks down the silicone over time and makes the surface porous, and a porous surface can no longer be cleaned properly, only replaced. Oil-based products like coconut oil leave a film that’s difficult to remove and that collects dirt. The fact that the body is ABS plastic doesn’t change the advice, because it’s the head that sits against the body.

Store it dry, and preferably in a bag or a case—both for hygiene and so that the high-gloss surface gets scratched less by other items that are loose in the same drawer. The manufacturer does not state that any storage bag is included, and none of the four shops lists one either.

Battery and charging: what is not published

The manufacturer states that the product is rechargeable with a USB cable and that the cable is included. All four shops repeat the same thing. That’s where the information ends.

How is the Rosy Gold Nouveau Mini Massager charged?

With the included cable. The manufacturer’s own product image of the cable shows a flat black cord with USB-A on one end and a magnetic charging puck on the other—not a USB-C connector that you plug into the product. This is relevant for two reasons. First, it supports the claim about water resistance, because the housing then does not need any opening. Second, the cable becomes product-specific: if you lose it, no regular USB-C cable will work, and you are left having to get a replacement that fits that exact magnetic connection.

The cable length is not published by the manufacturer, nor by any of the four Swedish shops. Nor does it appear whether a charging adapter is included—USB-A at the end means you need your own adapter or a computer to charge it, which most people already have.

The numbers that aren’t published

Neither the battery capacity in mAh, its voltage, the operating time, nor the charging time is published—either by the manufacturer or by any of the four shops. This is by far the biggest gap in the material for this product, and it’s worth being clear about, because it is exactly that kind of information that determines whether a small product is enough for the entire use occasion.

Without the capacity, it is not possible to convert the operating time into power consumption or to compare how heavily the cell is loaded versus another model. It is also not possible to assess how long the battery will last. What generally applies to lithium-ion cells reasonably applies here as well: capacity drops with the number of charge cycles, and in a product with this kind of design, the cell is soldered in and not replaceable. With use a couple of times per week, it is therefore the battery, not the materials, that sets the limit for how long the product works.

Comparing is difficult here too, because Satisfyer—which publishes considerably more—states the battery type and the charging cable, but they also do not provide battery capacity in mAh for their mini wands. The difference is that Satisfyer at least publishes weight, all three outer dimensions, IP rating, and warranty period. The manufacturer of Rosy Gold publishes none of that.

Rosy Gold Nouveau Mini Massager compared with the alternatives

Three comparisons are relevant: against the two mini wands from Satisfyer that are closest in size and use, and against Rosy Gold’s own sibling models. All the information below comes from each manufacturer’s own published specifications, and the prices for this article from the stores’ product feeds on September 12, 2026.

Against the Satisfyer Mini Wand — same idea, completely different substrates

The Satisfyer Mini Wand corresponds directly: a compact wand designed for both body massage and clitoral stimulation. The difference in what you find out before you buy is almost funny. Satisfyer publishes length 160 millimeters, width 63 millimeters, height 58 millimeters, weight 122 grams, material ABS plastic and silicone, water resistance according to IPX7, twelve vibration programs, a lithium-ion battery, and an included magnetic USB charging cable — plus a 15-year manufacturer’s warranty.

Rosy Gold’s manufacturer publishes none of that. Where Satisfyer states a measurement, ONE-DC provides nothing, and the dimensions that can still be given for Rosy Gold come from stores.

Purely physically, Rosy Gold is the smaller product: 12.5 centimeters versus 16 centimeters according to each source, so it is three and a half centimeters shorter. It’s a meaningful difference in a toiletry bag. In return, the Satisfyer is silicone-covered over a larger part of the body, has two extra programs, and a rated water resistance. The price also differs: Satisfyer lists the Mini Wand at 571.95 SEK in its own web store, while Rosy Gold is available from 349 SEK at a Swedish store — a difference of almost 223 SEK.

The conclusion is simple to formulate. If you want the smallest possible product and the lowest possible price, Rosy Gold is the way to go. If you want to know what you’re buying before you buy it — weight, dimensions, water-resistance rating, and warranty period — that information is only available from Satisfyer.

Against the Satisfyer Little Wand — the shortest of all, but the widest

The Satisfyer Little Wand is the second comparison, and it’s interesting precisely because it’s shaped the other way around. Satisfyer states length 53 millimeters, width 53 millimeters, and height 95 millimeters, as well as the weight 120.9 grams. So it’s a short and wide block rather than a wand, built to be placed on instead of being held in.

Otherwise, the same specification pattern applies: ABS plastic and silicone, IPX7, fifteen vibration programs, lithium-ion battery, magnetic USB charging cable, and 15 years of warranty. Price in Satisfyer’s own web store is 592.95 SEK.

The differences that actually matter: Rosy Gold has a small head on a flexible neck and a narrow grip; Little Wand has a larger contact area and a fixed design. If you want pinpoint stimulation and the option to angle the head, Rosy Gold’s shape is more useful. If you want a broad surface that covers more at once — and fifteen programs instead of ten — Little Wand is designed for that. And once again: at Satisfyer you get the numbers; at Rosy Gold you get the price.

Against Rosy Gold’s own sibling models

Within the brand, the choice is above all a question of shape. Nouveau Mini Curve Massager (RG007, EAN 8719934000858) is the same size class, but with a curved body and the button at the bottom, and for this model the manufacturer explicitly lists ten vibration modes, a soft head, and a rechargeable battery. Nouveau Wand Massager (RG001, EAN 8719934000797) is the full-sized wand in the series, with a flexible head, a powerful motor and — according to the manufacturer — ten modes.

That the manufacturer specifies the number of modes for the two sibling models but not for RG006 is information in itself: it’s the same product range, the same product page template, and the same editorial level, but that detail is missing here. So if you want a Rosy Gold product with a manufacturer-stated number of programs, you’ll find it in the sister models — not in this one.

The choice of shape between Mini Massager and Mini Curve is the trade-off that actually affects how you use it. The straight body on RG006 means the head points, in effect, along the length of the hand, giving reach; the curved body on RG007 angles the head relative to the grip, giving a different wrist position. Neither is better than the other, but they are not interchangeable.

Price range: 349 to 599 SEK and three stores with stock

Four Swedish shops sell the item with EAN 8719934000841. The cheapest are Blush Me and SexleksakerOutlet, both at 349 SEK. Vuxen is 399 SEK, and Vuxenkul is 599 SEK. There’s a 250 SEK or 72 percent difference between the cheapest and the most expensive shop for the exact same item number.

The stock situation evens out the picture. Three of the four shops had the product in stock at the price check on September 12, 2026: Blush Me and SexleksakerOutlet at 349 SEK and Vuxen at 399 SEK. So there’s a 50 SEK gap between the cheapest and the most expensive available shop, not 250. Vuxenkul, which has the highest price, was the only one missing stock — and a price shown for a sold-out item in a feed is rarely what you’ll end up paying when the product comes back in.

Vuxen also indicates a recommended price of 599 SEK for the item. That means that 349 SEK is about 42 percent below the recommended price, and that Vuxenkul’s 599 SEK is exactly at it. Recommended prices in this category should be read for what they are — a reference value from the supplier side, not a market price — but that explains why the spread looks the way it does: one end is full price, the other is the stores’ actual pricing.

Two of the stores also use the same article number in their feeds, 4580, which suggests a shared platform. It’s worth knowing if you compare two stores with an identical price and identical product text — they may come from the same place, and then shipping and delivery time are the only things that differ. Always check the final price in the checkout; in this price range, the order value is below the threshold for free shipping at most stores, and the shipping cost can therefore weigh more than the price difference of fifty kronor.

Who is the Rosy Gold Nouveau Mini Massager for—and who isn’t?

It’s for you if you want the smallest possible wand shape at the lowest possible price, and you value that the product actually fits in one hand, in a toiletry bag, or in a jacket pocket. It’s for you if you want an interface without a learning curve — one button, ten steps forward, done. It’s for you if you want a small head on a flexible neck rather than a broad contact surface, and you prefer a look that doesn’t immediately read as a sex toy when it’s out on display.

It’s not for you if you want to go back one step in the program list, because there’s no minus button. It’s not for you if you think you’ll use it in the bathtub, because no IP rating is published and "waterproof" without classification isn’t enough for immersion. It’s not for you if you want to know how long the battery lasts before you buy, because neither runtime nor charging time is published anywhere. And it’s not for you if you want to charge it with the same cable as your phone — the cable is magnetic and product-specific.

One more thing belongs in the decision, and it’s not about the product but about the basis. When a manufacturer doesn’t publish weight, battery data, or an IP rating, it doesn’t automatically mean the product is bad. It means you’re buying based on price, shape, and the store’s description instead of on specifications — and that you don’t have anything to hold the manufacturer to if something doesn’t match. At 349 SEK, it’s a reasonable risk for many. At 599 SEK, which is what the most expensive store asks for, the same risk is much harder to justify when Satisfyer’s mini-wands with complete specifications and a 15-year warranty are just over two hundred kronor higher.

Warranty, complaints, and right of withdrawal

The manufacturer does not publish any warranty period for this product. Neither ONE-DC’s product page nor the brand page for Rosy Gold states any voluntary manufacturer warranty, and none of the four Swedish shops states one either. It is a sharp contrast to Satisfyer, which provides a 15-year manufacturer warranty for both the Mini Wand and the Little Wand and prints it on the product page.

The absence of a warranty does not mean that you are without protection. Under the Swedish Consumer Sales Act (konsumentköplagen), you have three years to make a complaint for defects in the goods, regardless of what the manufacturer commits to or does not commit to. The right to make a complaint is directed at the store you bought from, not at the manufacturer, and it applies to defects that were present at delivery—which in practice includes a product that stops charging after a few months, but not a product that has worn out due to normal use.

In addition, for distance purchases you also have a right of withdrawal for fourteen days under the lagen om distansavtal och avtal utanför affärslokaler. Be aware that in practice the right of withdrawal is limited for hygiene items that have been removed from a sealed package—the package for this product is a cardboard box with hanging holes and a sealed front, and a broken seal can therefore be enough for the right of withdrawal to be forfeited. The right to complain for defects, however, always applies. If you have questions about what applies in your case, Konsumentverket guides you via Hallå konsument.

A practical tip that follows from the fact that the manufacturer does not publish any warranty: save the receipt and the order confirmation. When there is no manufacturer warranty that you can rely on, the proof of purchase vis-à-vis the shop is your entire protection, and three years is enough time for an inbox to become unmanageable.
