Default Buying a stove Installing the cord

on 4/15/2008 11:59 AM Terry said the following:
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.


My dual electric wall oven from Sears did not come with a cord either. I
suppose that it is to insure that a qualified electrician installs it.
Fortunately, my wife's nephew is a union electrician. He had to buy the
cord, 220 w breaker, and junction box to install it.
