I had the opposite experience. I bought a 28" W/S TV from Comet. The salesperson asked me once if i'd like an extended guarantee. I declined. The salesperson asked me once if i'd like delivery. I declined. They even had somebody help to load the TV into the car! When I got the TV home and it had two rather large coloured patches on, a quick phone call and they had someone pick it up. 3 weeks later (that's 3 weeks of 21" 4:3 viewing!) they dropped it off and hooked it up again. No complaints. Bob
