In europe there is a big difference between the manufacturers waranty that is up to the manufacturer to offer or not to offer as he likes and the legal waranty that is an obligation for the seller that he cannot escape.
So in europe the customer always holds the reseller responsible and not the manufacturer.
When the manufacturer is the seller, they're still bound to the legal minimum requirements of warranty though.
