Yes,I do get alot of the non-warranty sets in here.The dealer that wants me to become an asc sells mostly HD projection sets.He sells quite a few every week.The only way that I can see where everything might work out is to open an account with a rca dist.that will give me the 30day net account and hopefully,I will get my money by that time.When I first started my business,I had 4 open accounts with local dist.For the last 10yrs,I changed to an all c.o.d.(not that I have bad credit)but it has worked better for me.The dealer is in a hurry for me to do this but I told him that I was not going to rush into anything.I might talk to the rca rep.again and maybe he can let me get by with what I have now.Thanks Mando Birdie's TV & Electronics Casa Grande, AZ Jim Myers wrote: > You have to consider all the pros and cons.
