[net.consumers] Sears Contracts

This is a repost of my article which was munched by the bug.



     My sister bought a television from Sears and also purchased a
maintenance contract.  When the set needed repair instead of being
able to take it to the nearest Sears store for repair; she had to
take it to one which was some regional repair center which was 15
miles farther than the nearest Sears store.  If she didn't have a
contract, however, she would have been able to drop it off at the
nearby store, which was also the one in which she originally bought
the set & contract.  Naturally these facts were not presented to her
when she was told of the marvelous benefits of the contract.
