Is the CDW 3 year total warranty worth the money?
-
i use the tiger direct warranty and love it. Probly just square trade.
-
Only insure things you can't afford to replace. The only exception is if you get better/faster service with the CDW warranty.
-
I agree with @Nic warranties are rarely in your interest. Overall, you lose on them, on average. Any single one might pay off, but in the long run you lose.
Warranties are where the big profits are for a reason.
-
Well, I purchase the 2 year extended warranty (3 total) on the refurbished computers i purchase from TD. For some reason it's easier to sell warranties than it is to sell "extra" hardware to my clients.
-
Oh sure. Selling warranties is easy. That's part of what makes them so popular.
-
maybe I should sell warrantes and just buy equipment.
-
There you go.
We do used equipment leasing. It is basically a form if warranty.
-
Warranties in the UK are entertaining. Regardless of what the manufacturer says, all electronic equipment has a 2 year warranty.
Then we have the Sale of Goods Act. So that's 6 years or so
-
I found out the warranty is from Microsoft not CDW

Does that affect the price of electronics over there?
-
@IRJ Nope. Apple have been screwed for this many times. It's EU Law.
-
It has to affect the prices. The price set for things in the EU would be priced with that as a known factor.
-
That is partially why things in the EU cost so much more than in the US.
-
OK, that explains a lot!
-
That and taxes are way higher.

Somebody has to pay for it
Someone has to pay for the 'free healthcare'

We've used the healthcare in France. Best I've ever seen. No amount of money in America can buy you healthcare like you get in a little, rural village in France.

Maybe, maybe not... Concierge primary card docs might be the closest. I have one for a client.

Walk straight in, good, quality diagnosis from the WHO's top rated health system. Nearly instant health care and nearly instant pharmaceutical availability. All for free. It's amazing. The degree to which the US has bad health care is so extreme that if you've not used other countries' programs it is really hard to understand how good healthcare can be.
