I am just wondering how many people purchase the extended warranty when they purchase big electronic items (TV, Laptops, computers etc....).
I spend a lot of time looking for bargains when it comes to electronics, but one thing I never save on is the extended warranty. I ALWAYS bargain with the retailer to get a lower price for the extended warranty and almost 99% of the time i get it. I think it's expensive items I purchase that suppose to last me for a long time so it makes sense to protect it. I purchased a laptop in 2006 and extended warranty ($500) for three years and I am just about to place my laptop for the second time.
I know some dont think it's important, canadian finance blog had a post on it a little while back
