I am not so sure about that, when my friend had to send back his 340 to TT
last year for a small issue he got the MOST MISERABLE SERVICE over the
course of SEVERAL MONTHS !!!!!! and had to send a registered letter to even
get a response and eventually got a half assed apology from a vide
president. He did get it back fixed after several months !!!!!!!!

my friend said that if the 340 wasn't so great he would sell it and **** on
TT

unless you are a GOVT or industrial customer then the service you get from
TT is a CRAP SHOOT......keep your fingers crossed that you will get it back
in less than 6 months.



That's simply not true, Mike. I sent my 350 to TT for a minor repair
and a touchup and it was done, on time, as they promised, for less than
$100.

And my experience is not unique. There are many here who have had
similar experiences. And recounted them, as I did earlier this year.

I've found them to be helpful when I simply needed a question
answered, sometimes offering detailed advice. And no one would mistake
me for a governmental nor industrial customer.

Still at $1590.00 with about 21 hours to go.

Even if the price goes up another $750, and the buyer had to send it
back for factory service to correct any undocumented problems, the buyer
would still come out ahead on this.
