When my CRT tube failed many years ago the replacement cost the insurance company more than I paid for the TV, I assume simple supply and demand dictates that after a point when you can simply pick a part of a production line the costs rocket.
An insurance policy would normally replace like for like and I expect the D&G specifies a retail product (not refurb) so you may be offered a choice of models at similar spec or a cash amount linked to current market prices. |

Many thanks Nigel for your trusted words
,as for RobAnt the reason for the post is too show that a crazy f***ed up world we live in can charge £3000 to repair a £1000 TV and Damien Hirst has been nowhere near it
