And that's the crux of risk assessment. Cost vs the likelihood of failure. If I had been in a position to buy the 7D back when they were going for $1350, I'd have bought from an authorized dealer. But suddenly they went up to $1599 and no authorized dealer could sell them for less (which is price fixing, IMO). That change essentially put a $250 price tag on the warranty and for me, it wasn't worth it.
