    Hello. K well Im planning on purchasing a Sony FZ 140. Does it really matter whether I buy it from the online sony store or just in store at Best Buy? I do not believe I am going to get an extended warranty from either online or best buy, so does it really matter?

    If you're going to get an extended service plan with your purchase, I'd say get it from sony. Sony is currently offering $200 off your entire purchase if you get a mouse ($20 and up), a case ($23 and up), and a 3YR accidental plan ($299) with your computer.

    You're going to have to go into a sonystyle store to make your purchase though. The promotion is not available through direct online sales, and the FZ140 is not available in stores. Tell the salesperson you want to do a telesales order for the FZ140 with the campus package.
