You spend a bunch of money with a store who sells it to an underwiter. It all works great until something is wrong, because neither employs a service tech. Thus, the work is then factored out to an agency based on low bid not qualification.<br /><br />Sound familar?<br /><br />We self insure. Its a pain as we have to escrow funds for 5 years to support any repairs...but I do not need the customer angst of factoring out repairs<br /><br />Unless of course, I wanted to alienate themSteve Sheinkopfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01172393469952805657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33963709.post-86335999164557771102010-06-10T11:59:58.907-04:002010-06-10T11:59:58.907-04:00The reason I chose Yale (besides the great blog) w...The reason I chose Yale (besides the great blog) was all the posts about the importance of servicing what you sell.

And it is in effect two pieces<br /><br />As a FYI, we underwrite our own warranties, and the redemption rate is over 80%, so they seem like a good value to the consumerSteve Sheinkopfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01172393469952805657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33963709.post-21595756097170898142010-06-09T22:59:11.126-04:002010-06-09T22:59:11.126-04:00I dont mean to harp on this but I was just in Yale...I dont mean to harp on this but I was just in Yale and was considering the unitized front loader frigidaire vs the washer and dryer stackable. The deciding factor was that the stackable was $200 more as a result of the service plan being $400 (199x2) vs $199 for the unitized.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33963709.post-83968040992696551112010-06-09T15:07:40.115-04:002010-06-09T15:07:40.115-04:00Yes, the price is higher, but the capacity is larg...Yes, the price is higher, but the capacity is larger as well.
