Damn dude, that sucks.
(Though I can't help but mention that my primary credit card automatically extends manufacturer warranties for an extra year...) EDIT: Heh...I see I wasn't even the first to go down that road. Oh well. |

Don't care about your credit card and since I don't use them, I have plenty of cash in which I can buy another and pay for it while you pay for yours 3 times on your credit card....

As I've mentioned multiple times, I never carry balances on my credit cards, so that statement's simply false. Regardless, I'm not in the mood to get into this again, so good luck in finding a new TV.

If I were up to my ass in debt, I would run from the problem too, that will make it go away

For what it's worth:
I went to a Sanyo consumer complaint site. Apparently, the problem you have is very common to Sanyo TVs. One person called it a panel board problem, another called it a PCB board problem, and others left it unnamed. It generally seemed to run $200-$250 to fix, with no promise that it won't happen again. |

What would you do? Buy a new one or fix the old one? |

Quite a few do it I think, but the one I currently use the most is a Discover Escape card. It also saved my ass recently because they automatically give you the Collision Damage Waiver insurance that car rental companies try and get you to buy. I hate those things, but took a rock to the windshield on a business trip.

I thought all credit cards automatically gave you rental car insurance like that, almost every article I've read praising credit cards lists the rental car insurance as a reason. But the asshole at Enterprise or whatever one time told me my credit card didn't cover anything. I felt like he was lying to me there, but I just bought the insurance anyway to get the hell out of there. |
