Prices are pretty close. My shipping costs may be a little less, plus I have an open account with Andrews. Your right it is not good if we have to front the costs. It is conceivable that you could have several big ticket items in one month and end up with a couple thousand dollar parts invoices to pay for before you get reimbursed. In fact the odds are more likely as more of these sets are sold. The new technology's are not cheap all around. I heard from someone don't remember this list or not,that for every good plasma display that is manufactured there are a sizable number of bad ones that end up in the scrap heap. I know those are not inexpensive to manufacture. It will become clearer as time goes on what we as service rs are up against in order to remain in the business.
