Default Buying a stove Installing the cord


Terry wrote in message ...
I looked at a stove at Home Depot the other day. I was ready to buy
one. They have "free" delivery and they carry away the existing
stove.

The stove I was looking at was around 600 bucks. The "free" delivery
was a gift card that you had to use in the store.

Then they wanted to charge me another 15 bucks for the cord. I
said...why can't you use the one that is on the existing stove.

They said it would void the warrantee. I walked out.


That's standard procedure where I live in CA. They will not re-use an
old cord on appliances when they're installing, but if it voids the
warranty when you do it yourself, I wouldn't take a chance, though it
is annoying.
