I just bought an M6805 yesterday at Best Buy. I haven't opened it yet, because I'm trying to determine which extended warranty is better, the emachines one or the best buy one.
I was able to get Best Buy to pricematch their 3 year extended warranty to the one on the emachine website and therefore got the Best Buy extended warranty (3yr) for $189.
However, I'm not sure if I like this statement in the agreement:
Technological advances may result in a replacement product with a lower selling price than the original product.
However, here is some stuff I don't like about the emachines agreement:
[*]Laptop Notebook protection will pay for labor and parts necessary to replace your laptop notebook screen should it become inoperable, but not more then twice over the term of the Contract.[*]Claims are limited to a cumulative amount of $1000 or two repairs over the term of the Contract, whichever comes first.[/LIST]
However, this statement in the emachines agreement refutes the statement in the best buy agreement that I didn't like:
We will repair your Product, replace the Product with one of equal or greater value, or reimburse you for authorized repairs, at our discretion, when required due to a Breakdown, including those experienced during normal wear and tear, which is not concurrently covered under any other warranty or service contract or any insurance policy.
I guess I think the Best Buy warranty (even with the statement I am not happy with) is better than the emachines agreement because of the $1000 cap and the 2 repairs over the life of the contract statement...wait a minute...does that make sense? The emachines
product page has this statement:
A "No lemon" policy - if your product requires more than three repairs we will replace it FREE
How can they make this statement if they'll only allow two repairs over the life of the contract?
Does the eMachines extended warranty even make sense? If so, which warranty would you rather have?
