I should have bought the service plan.

I liked this TV a lot until yesterday. It has a picture as good as any plasma or lcd I've seen and the footprint is very small for a rear-projection.
It's in my family room so it gets a lot of use and I have a big bay window which light shines through in the afternoons. Even with that the glare is pretty minimal for most tv watching. Altough I'll definately pull the blinds for serious watching of dvd's or big sporting events.
So everything was going well until yesterday when the lamp blew out. A brief look online and they are $200 to $250 for a replacement. I'm not at all handy so I have no idea if that's something I can do myself. If not, I'm probably looking at at least another $100 to $150 for a professional.
The TV is only about 15 months old, so even though it's in my main room and is on almost constantly it seems a short lifespan.
I NEVER buy service plans because when you think of how many electronics (tv's, computers, printers, laptops,dvd players, stereo's, mp3 players,video game consoles, etc.) and appliances (fridge, range, dishwasher, washer, dryer, vacuum, mixers, etc.) are in a typical household and how long they usually last, you're basically self-insuring against the one or two items which will fail before it's time.
I guess the difference here is that this lamp WILL fail at some point and in my case quite quickly. It just sucks that it happened to fail 4 days before the Patriots play in the Superbowl (I'm from Mass.). |
