Default bowtech diamond issues ?

ok so to al lthe bowtech staff i need some help its nothing major just a bit disspointing in october last year on a trip to the usa i purchased a diamond marquis
i have only shot it about 8 times and maybe 200 or so arrows but noticed today that the paint coating is flaking away from the grip area on the back side of the bow is this a common problem something bowtech is aware of ???

if so what can i do as i said it doesnt affect the bow just it looks bad have never had this happen on any bow before and my last bow i had for 10 years

any help or guidance please

Oz, yours if the first I've heard of. The Marquis is an incredible bow and honestly, beautiful in my opinion and your issue would somewhat **** me off. Do you have a local dealer there in Australia? If so, what does he have to say and if you don't get satisfied there, contact Bowtech directly and explain your issue. If all else fails, please contact me back and I'll see what I can do.

Why would It matter where you bought It? A dealer Is a dealer right? Sounds to me like the UK salesman Is passing the buck and don't want to deal with It. Maybe I'm wrong though.

Good luck oz, hope It all works out for ya.

yeah i think your right mate

there is a reason i dont deal with shops over here it is all orientated towards olympic archery
field archery as we know it is just a small sideline trying to get a camo bow over here is a hard thing to do of course if you want a pink or red one no worries
will let you all know what diamond if i get no joy will let rob know he can give them a kick for me lol
