I think for something this expensive they should provide all parts till the headset has been out of production for about 10 years (with 5 years being the absolute minimum).

Buyer beware with Bose!
It’s the only way they can sell the poorly regarded A30. The response to the new headset was people buying the old one (A20). A large pilot group, when given the money to buy any headset, overwhelmingly chose anything other than the A30.

Agreed.
