One of the only ones I agree with.
Edit: I guess the disagree means I agree'd with others?
Am I the only one who has things break the day after the warrenty expires?
This happened to my lawn mower and my PSP.
IMO the best warranty in the world is the one you never have to use. I never bother with warranties. Not even on cars. It's cheaper for me to fix it myself, it shouldn't need the fucking warranty in the first place, and half the time they can deny the claim with an ass-pull excuse.
This is why at our store we have that type of warranty and accidentals.
Even worse is the kind of warranty that makes you keep the packaging
It's fine for headphones or cameras, but this printer takes up half my desk, do they expect me to keep the cardboard box that I had to roll sideways through the door?
You actually have to buy warranty in the US? Most electronics over here are guaranteed to work for 3 years and if they break before that time you can return them, no questions asked

You don't have to buy one, But generally the store will offer their own warranty for a fee that might protect against other issues. Say the manufacturer supports defects for a year, you can buy a 2 year warranty from the store that maybe protects against accidents or some other issue for an extra year.
Though in most cases people won't return the product anyways.
I had no idea that you need to buy warranties in the US. How can they fuck the customer over that much?

Most warranties are shit, though on a huge expensive TV I'd buy one.
Good Guys in Australia protect it for 5 years and its actually a decent warranty.

in this video he wasn't talking with it much on, but he does need to drop the mask
Why is he wearing shit?

Because that's bullshit.

Almost everything comes with a manufacturer warranty; a camera or other small electronic device might have a 30 day warranty, a car might have a 30,000mile-100,000mile/3 year warranty, et cetera.
The stores and car dealerships off their own warranty along with the manufacturer warranty, generally an extra $20 to $4000. They protect the device for a longer period.
Unfortunately, stores basically constantly try to fuck over the costumers with extended warranties, and the salesmen will [I]outright lie[/I] about what the warranty covers, forcing you to look over the entire document before purchasing it.

He's stated he made all these episodes really quickly a while back and now doesn't have time to re-do them without the mask.
My tritton headset has been sent back multiple times, and Madcatz hasnt even asked about the warranty (which ran out a long time ago).
Waranties for electronic things are irrelevant, atleast in the uk.
I never use warranties. Companies always fuck me over when I try to use the warrantie so whats the point.
Warranties are hardly bullshit for things like computer parts.
If my HDD dies, I don't want to spend another $100 (or more) on a new one. They're not really there to extend the life of your product, they're more there to make you get the [I]full[/I] life of it, instead of being cheated out on one by it "magically exploding" as said in the video.

YOU DONT HAVE TO BUY FUCKING WARRANTIES
Usually, warraties are just for the sales guy to get a little more money out of you.
Isn't this guy the AVGN?
If that was the case with him and his projector, I'd raise hell with them. If you paid how much for a warranty on a bulb, why shouldn't you be able to get a new bulb? /internettoughguyderp but seriously, if they won't honor the warranty, I'd kind of head to a higher up (unless the bulb is so cheap it's almost not worth it) and deal with those people.

Projector bulbs usually range upwards from $100.
I have never had any inconvinences with warranties. My previous monitor got a dead pixel, I had a 2 year warranty, I returned it and got another screen.

Well in that case, I'd force the store to honor their original warranty. Why should they just say "oh we've never seen that ever ever" when they've got a customer with an original receipt with original store address with the warranty purchase. They should honor it.. :\

Was that store warranty or manufacturer warranty?
