	I finally got a VCR and the salesman was telling me all kinds of
horror stories about how often they have to be fixed, aligned, cleaned,
etc. He talked me into buying an Extended Service Agreement under which
they will clean it and fix everything that goes wrong, even provide a
loaner, for $130 for 2 years. On reflection I was wondering whether this
was worth it, compared to the possibility of a huge repair bill over a
similar period. So, netlanders, what is your experience with this stuff? 
Do these things break a lot or what? I can still get my $$ back if necessary.

If brand is important it's a Fisher FVH-530. Please reply to the net, I am
sure the results will be interesting to others. Thanks in advance...
