They won't quote a price over the phone.

Not going to spend two hours only to find out that it is $300 or more.

How much do you think it will be?

In indeed it's "much less" then I'll take the chance.

From what I heard it should be around $200.

Ouch. These expensive phones end up costing even more than you think.
Anyone have any experience with Chase Ink insurance?

How about this? 99 deduc....

If you only crack your screen once a year that wouldn't be worth it. After paying the membership and the $99 deductable it's already costing the same as just replacing the screen by Samsung.

Agree but the cost is a bit less. 230 at Samsung vs 190 at square...

What is the down time with square?
Do they send you a replacement or fix the old one?

What's the vote on Oreo? Do I install or keep pushing it off?
