Re:Extended Warranties Aren't Worth It (Score 1)

2) If it's something you carry around, small, expensive and likley to break when dropped, consider the warranty: CD player, tape system, mini-disc, PDA, etc

Come on! They wouldn't sell extended warranties unless they made money from it. Buying a warranty is like gambling - the bank always wins in the end. On average that is.

The only situation where you should consider an extended warranty is if you absolutely need the object and you will not be able to afford a second one if it falls to pieces - like a car or a house for many people.

Or if you happen to be, as you admit, a klutz.
