Sears... BINGO!

Did I mention this?
My DVD Player (Panasonic Model) was on sale for $199 at Sears - so I ordered it an picked it up.

1) Price at 2001 Audio Video and even Future Shi* was $229 (READ: Sears is competiting on the newest gear; and beating the competition!)
2) Even after 3 months if I have a problem I will take it back - FS has 30days and 2001 AV? Restocking and/or instore credit (AS IF!)
3) Because it was ordered at Catalog - I get around having to deal with the "AV department" - the people at Catalog take anything back without questions.
4) No greasy salespeople to deal with trying to upsell me or trying to over talk the features..

I also like Sears for major stuff specifically because of the inhouse repairs. When you are spending $1K+ on Washers/Dryers/Treadmills etc - piece of mind costs little. For 5 items you get 28% on the maintenance. So it pays to buy most things from them.

The electronics are hard though - they don't have much in other areas (receiver; TV) that appeal to me - well today anyways.

Merci!
