LostInSpace Report post Posted August 23, 2004 Hey, that's not funny. I've been there myself! Radio Shack, Compusa, J&R computer world, Gamestop (if they could get away with it, they probably start offering extended warranties on games next) etc.... It's getting to a point where I'm going to have a shirt made with the print "NO EXTENDED WARRANTIES PLEASE. NOW GO AWAY!" before I go shopping for electronics.

street228 Report post Posted August 23, 2004 I NEVER, pay for an EXTENDED warranty. I have found, that: USUALLY, if the product last through the it's INITIAL warranty period, it will probably last 20 years. If not?...I throw it on a shelf, in the shop and it sits there... until I either fix it, or scrap it for parts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scrivener Report post Posted August 25, 2004 There are still some things you should get a warranty for. For instance: 1) Cars 2) Canon GL2 (or other misc expensive video equipment) 3) Playstation 2 (It *will* break. More than once.) 3) Non home-built computers Best Buy's warranties are pretty good. If worse comes to worse you sabotage the stuff and take advantage of the no-lemon policy. BING! Instant free upgrade! On the other hand, there are places where you just shouldnt be shopping, let alone buying a warranty from them. These include: 1) Electronics Boutique (Warranties cover everything, but only work 1 time) 2) Komp USSR [Comp USA] 3) Circuit $#!++y [Circuit City] 4) GameStop 5) Games4Less 6) Any other specialty game store Good places include: 1) Fried Electronics [Fry's] 2) Busted Buy [best Buy] 3) MicroCenter 4) NewEgg.com 5) MWave.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
