“Luckily, it was slightly less than 4 years old, so the Sam’s club 4 yr warranty covered it. Sam’s sent a new LG which has also been great. Loved the Samsung though.”
Costco sent us a full refund for a four to TV under warranty. We bought a similar model but with better specs for less and pocketed the difference.
It pays to get an extended warranty.
Things just don’t last anymore. I’d say we’re well ahead on the price of the extended warranties vs what it would’ve cost without the warranties.
