Tampabay:One thing I discover through all this is: What price is service worth to you as a buyer?
Yes, you might find a better price online store but is your item or items warranty after the sale by the Manufacturer?
You can check on this before you buy online.
Some online sellers are authorized by the manufacturer.
And you can verify which ones with the manufacturer first.
Also, some online sellers offer their own replacement warranty whether the manufacturer does or not.
Plus, I've found "online" sellers who are actually just large LDS who happen to have a website. Their prices are lower online, and yet their physical store stands behind the sale.
"Now I have a place to service my items without fear of not having a warranty..."
What "service" does your LDS do on your computer? Your BC?
The ones I've visited say they don't service such gear at all.
If it's broke - they send it back. They're not computer firmware programmers nor are they able to re-stitch and melt bladder seams together.
If all they're gonna do is send stuff back with proof-of-purchase, I could do that myself.
