someone tell me this one i am not the throw away guy by any means at all. 2 recent senerios had a 13 inch tv probably the tube burnt out took it into the tv shop the guy laughed at me he said a tube at least is 60 bucks and if i put it in its a miniumum of 55 bucks. i can go to any chain store and buy the whole thing tube plastic houseing cord everything for 80 how can one part be 3/4 of the whole thing. second case and point dishwasher the timer switch mechanism stopped working it was in the switch notthe machine. it was a rotory switch anyways to make a long story short i went to sears (kenmore dishwasher but that dont mean anything as i learned its made by maytag but anyways went to sears 147 dollors for the switch w/the timer and all in it. i went out to the showroom i can get a washer w/a 3 year warrenty for 349.99 closeout last years model. why woudl the switch a very little component of the whole machine (you have heating coil pump door case wiring etc etc) how can one part cost prid near 1/2 of a whole new machine. this dishwasher was 4.5 years old. i haggled with the sales lady and got her to throw in free installation so needless to say i got a new dishwasher might as well guarenteed for 3 years though that is worthless casue its agains manufactures defect and you know they never make anything cheap and inadaquate never. where the old ones going i dont know probably a landfill. would go to mexico like all the old farm equipment except their dishwashers are still women. remember when lol
