Does anyone know why Fisher VCRs and stereos command such
a high price while at the same time providing such terrible
service. My VCR went in for a bad tuner; it took 8 weeks for
the part to come in. Now it has a bad power supply and
has been in the shop for four weeks (clock is still running).
This is a $650 VCR that is only two years old!
As a result of my Fisher experience I've come up with a
purchasing set of rules:
1) Don't buy Fisher
2) If you do buy Fisher, make sure you get a service
contract.
3) If you get a service contract, make sure it provides
a loaner unit while the Fisher is waiting for parts.
(Make sure the loaner is not a Fisher).
4) Don't buy Fisher!!
