You can return the product for any reason - it does not have to be
defective. If asked tell them it does not perform according to your
original expectations based on the advertising.
[NB: Always check the packaging of any product at a retail store
because they may put the returned item back on the shelf. Get only
packages that have not been opened.]
Also, most people do not consider an extended warranty. There are two
kinds - straight replacement and repair. They pay postage both ways.
However the product has to be a minimum price. A $30 product doesn't
qualify.
I bought the Polaroid DRM2001G for $220 at W-M and evaluated it for 30
days (it has a 90 day factory warranty). Then I bought the 3-year
extended service policy for $24. Including 8.25% sales tax, the total
comes out to $6.77 per month or 23 cents per day for the next 38
months. That's a deal so incredible that I can hardly believe it.
I have a DVDR backup so when I have to send the Polaroid off for
service I am covered. The warranty company claims it can take up to 3
weeks depending on parts availability. The warranty even includes free
cleaning and broken remotes.
