Yeah but watch the fine print even then.  Some warranties have the
provision that if something prevents the store from fixing the
problem (like spare parts aren't make anymore) they can end
the warranty (and make you go away) by refunding the price of
the warranty.

Hasn't happened to me thankfully.
