Warranty

#1 Post by csioucs » Sun Mar 29, 2009 1:17 pm

Hi there!

A question has crossed my mind about warranty. Is it possible to buy warranty AFTER the initial period expires?

Thanks.

This question has been asked several times on the forum, but I don't recall actually seeing anybody who did this in person, and who can confirm that it is indeed possible? Anyway, I suggest see the threads Extended Warranty and Advice on extending warranty and finally that you do a Search for 41C9180... better extending the warranty before it has expired... and cheaper, too! :wink:

Please be kind to share your experience here, if you go ahead with this "post-expiration warranty extension" and find out that IS actually possible... thanks!

PS: Your choice of "subject" could be a bit more descriptive (such as e.g. "Post-expiration warranty extension; possible?")... please consider this for the future! :-)

Thanks! I didn't know about it. I would like to extend my warranty/buy some extra as it has just recently expired. I remembered that I had to extend it two days after it expired *argh*. I'll try soon and I'll post here how it goes.
