Purchased a 60 inch Samsung plasma flatscreen 16 months ago and was persuaded to buy the 3 yr. extended warranty for a very pricey $329.95. 10 days ago it stopped turning on. I have had the most frustrating, infuriating 10 days of a lifetime. I was finally able to get a technician that their warranty company arranged. He pronounced the tv unrepairable and reported to the company that it should be replaced. I have made phone call after phone call and the store manager, David Boyd, told me I was wasting my time talking to him! The warranty company and the corporate office keep putting me off and refusing to let me talk to anyone in authority. It's beginning to look like I threw away $1400 . Beware!
