I expect you gentlemen are correct and I appreciate your replies.

I think it is very wrong to state such a warranty that is essentially a lie. I understand different exuses can be made to "justify" not honoring the promise but the fact that these sets work fine with the usual component replacements and are clearly as safe as modern sets means that they could last forever and therefore who ever own's GE should do what they promise. I bet they could open a drawer to get the manufacturing specs and have some department make a mold with the automatic laser machines and have one or more by the end of the day. Considering how little workers are paid (compared to exec salaries, company profits etc.) I expect the actual cost to produce one circuit board would be about $5.00. I expect others would disagree on that cost figure but I base that on the fact that computerized machines can reproduce anything even without the original specs if they have something to copy.

In another thread a person backed out of a bid and many members spoke as though he is not trustworthy and they would not do business with him. However, when it comes to all that wrongs against people that big businesses do evrybody just seem to not mind at all based on the lack of mentioning such wrongs and the fact that we the people continue to accept whatever they do as if there is nothing we can do about it. I suppose nothing can be done to make big businessesdo the right thing. People seem to not want to get together on such matters.
