If You Bet the Product Breaks, Don't Buy the Product

Sep 24 '00



The the manufacturer does not have the quality for a product to last, I am 1) not going to buy it or 2) pay my hard earned money to go to a profit center with negligible overhead.

It seems that I can't sit down to dinner without a tele-marketer (when do these people eat?) calling me to offer a warranty on everything I've purchases in the past month. I mean think of the warranty business..you literally make NOTHING and collect revenues based on people's acceptance of poor quality or the fact they're too busy to find that mythological "authorized dealer". And why are "authorized dealers always on the other side of town, no matter where you live?

The bottom line is if a product maker can't guarantee the product, that's bells ringing in my ears to never buy that product. Even if the product is good, the fact that they're trying to fleece the consumer every step of the process is enough to shun their product.
