    Can anyone recommend where's the best place to buy a Toshiba M40. Is it better to buy it online through the Toshiba Website or buying it at Staples, FutureShop or BestBuy???

    Who provides better service and support when something goes wrong after the purchase between all of them? Is it recommended to buy an extended warranty???

    Thanks a lot!

    Hello !
    I believe you can even buy the M40 in Costco. They have very good return policy (half a year, I believe) and they are the cheapest - $1829CDN if I am not mistaken. The exteneded warranty is quite expensive +/-400CDN for 3 years. I was advised by many people to buy it, so I did. I got mine in Future Shop. Originally, I bought Compaq R3320CA but than the screen was flickering so I got M40 and than I exchanged first M40 for another one (wireless stopped working). Buy it where is better return policy, especially where you have more time to return it or exchange it. It takes a bit of time to know the laptop - especially if you are not a computer geek. Future Shop has 14 days return policy. I am not sure about Best Buy. Check for return policy of each store and than decide. Good luck !
