I bought an extended warranty when I bought my 46' DLP TV from them. The original warrant was for one year and I was offered the extended warranty for around $300 which gave me a 4 year warranty. I was reluctant, but I bought it anyway. I will never buy another warrant again, but luckily this time it worked out, sort of. One of the bulbs went out and a bulb costs $350. I saved an extra $50 buy getting the warranty. They came out the next day and fixed my TV. Now this is something very simple so I don't know what would have happened if it was something major. Extended warranties are a waste of money. Very seldom does something break down after the original warranty is up. I will save my money and take my chances in the future
