Re: Warranty Direct or other warranties
 

I believe you missed the point of my post. 'Historically only
about ONE PERCENT of all manufactures extended service plans,
ever pay out more than the cost of the plan and its
deductibles.' I was referring to the fact that even the best of
warranties from manufactures paying just claims are not a good
investment. On average 99% never pay out what they COST, let
alone more than they cost. Believing one will save money buying
an extended warranty is a fallacy.
