If I bought a new mower and the belt broke after 3 hours use and it
vibrated badly, I would be either taking it back to the store or
taking it in for warrany repait.

Does that mean no warranty.

It means he can't "take it back to the store". It means that finding a
warranty center and/or shipping it somewhere may be more trouble than
fixing it himself.

I guess it's a good point. Another reason NOT to buy large ticket items
via the internet.

Very good Art. You are right. Too much trouble.

I replaced the belt and it is ok for now. I suppose if I made an
attempt, that Amazon would hook me up with some guy in Houston that
would handle the warranty. But that's a lot of trouble and I actually
like to fiddle with stuff like that. Just like my HDTV I ordered
online, the sale notice said they do NOT accept returns.

However, I have window air conditioner that I paid nearly $250 for
that is noisy and had been damaged and repaired when I received it
from J&R company. I paid extra to get the 'ultra quiet' and they
sent me the 'ultra noisy' one. *******s!.
Again, the trouble you have to go thru to return or get an item fixed
sucks. That's why I try to buy locally even if I have to pay sales
tax and sometimes 10 % more.

The break was jagged and the belt number has changed since the manual
was written. I think they went to a heavier duty belt.

Now to find a source for wheels before they change the design....

Probably because you top-post, and hijack threads.

You always seem to give me a grin, Eggs. Ever since I upgraded to TB2
my Usenet viewing is restricted to three vertical panes until I hide the
folder pane. As a result the subject and sender columns (among others)
get truncated. Here is what I saw:

Yard-Ma... larry 10/5/...
Yard-... Eggs... 5:08 ...

And you know, somehow I knew it was about changing subjects (and not
changing sigs).

Thanks for the grin. I needed that today. :-)

When you earnestly believe you can compensate for a lack of skill by
doubling your efforts, there's no end to what you can't do.

Just killfile G2 by default, then upscore the few that are worth reading.
Works here, without a hitch.
