it's 1 year old. i've been waiting 5mos for it to be repaired and nothing has been done so they have agreed to a replacement.
i don't know how much they will credit us, im hoping for around $1500, but im expecting about $1000. if it's the $1000 i will first ask them if i have to purchase another Panasonic TV or if it can be any brand (i am getting it from The Brick). if it can i will probably be getting a 50" SONY 1080p DLP. if it is limited to Panasonic only, which it most likely is, then i will ask him to find me a 52" that is that cheap... i doubt he will at The Brick, because i have searched and the cheapest and closest to 52" is a 56" that is $1499.99. i am willing to pay about $300 out of my pocket so if neither of those are accepted by Panasonic, then i will just wait for the repair and get my extended warranty.
