There is a sucker born every few seconds. Some one will buy an extended
warranty.

I might just be a scam of some sore, but I can think of several reasons for
an extended warranty. One might be a guaranteed 24 hour replacement or
something like that. It would be a big improvement over sending a defective
tool in and having to wait for repair and return post and could be a
critical option for the professional needing his tools.

Another might be an option to upgrade to a newer model of tool instead of
just repair and return of the old one. How about onsite repair in case of
defect? Very handy for bigger tools. If I thought about it, I'm sure I could
think of a few more possible reasons for an extended warranty. Don't knock
it unless you know exactly what the extended warranty entails.
