The other good thing about the Richer policy is that they guarantee to buy
the
unit back at 50% of it's original cost at the end of the warranty - great
news
for serial upgraders!

Both Comet and Scottish Power have warranties now where you get the cost of
the warranty back if you don't use it...

At the end of your Richer Sounds warranty, if you haven't used it, you can
claim the cost of it back.

But who's going to remember after 5 yrs (!)

But saying that, the BEST shop for warranties is John Lewis - got our
washing machine to 5 yrs for another 30 quid, same for the dishwasher, etc.

And on my barclaycard, I get an extra 2 yrs warranty free (above the
standard 1 yr warranty) - recently had my Dads portable DVD player repaird
-
the cost of the repair was higher than what we paid - and it was a nice
free
Barclaycard warranty. Doesnt apply to all items tho - they have a list...

I have to agree with the Richer Sounds warrant. Was in there yesterday
looking for a new amp, and the cost (or lack of) for their extened
warranties struck me a very good value for money. Something I might even
take out.
