Tips on buying expensive electronics:

  • Buy an extended warranty or protection plan when you buy the unit. (Sites like SquareTrade sell such warranties.)
  • Buy expensive items with an American Express card, since the card extends the warranty period to two years.
  • Operate your item quickly, since most items have a 30-day exchange period.
