If I spend 1000 USD on a device, wanting for it to come with a warranty is natural, no?

I'd love to spend hundreds of dollars for a spare part and wait for a couple of months to get it shipped before and then do the repair myself if something that falls under the warranty happens.

I know how fun it was, because I did it once during the Nexus days.
