Hi All,
I am thinking about buying a Sony KDL-46X3000, and obviously I would like it to be covered by a 5 year warranty. It is not sold by John Lewis, so no amount of pricematching will help me there!
Totaldigital are selling it for £1779 + £20 Delivery, which is pretty much the cheapest out there. Also, they are offering a free 5 year warranty. They advertise this as a "Sony Warranty". They offer it on selected Sony and Panasonic models. And you have to go into their store (in Birmingham) to purchase in person.
I phoned them up and found out what the terms of the warranty are (the Empire Direct one has some dubious terms, so I thought it prudent to check into).
What they said was that the warranty was just their standard Domestic and General 5yr extended warranty, which seems pretty good. I have heard some bad things about it here, so I would be interested to hear what others have to say about it.
Apparently Sony are offering the warranty to in-person shoppers to try to reduce the amount of online purchasing. I don't really see why, when the price is the same online and instore, but hey-ho.
So does anyone else have another story about this offer, or the DomGen warranty?
