I have the opportunity to extend my warranty on a Plasma TV set I just bought for 3 additional years over the manufacturers 1 year for only $120. Could this be worth the money?

Absolutely. Go for it. When I bought my Plasma, the extended warranty offere to me was about $700 for 3 years. Just make sure the provider is legitimate and an approved service provider for the brand you have.
Are you buying this extended service through a third party provider? And if so, who is it? I would purchase the extended service for my Plasma!
The warranty is being handled by the retailer (a well respected authorized dealer in my area who only handles audio/video and where I have purchased many items over the past 30+ years). The actual cost is $350 for 4 years. So you think this is a wise investment?
