TV repair sham

I guess we're living in a time where it's more expensive to repair stuff than to buy new stuff instead. I mean, recently I bought a DVD player for 60 Euro ! You can't even repair such a device for that price. My 8 year old 200$ TV broke some 3 weeks ago, and as it's a rather unknown mark, not many TV repair stores are willing to fix these TV's. So I had no other choice than letting the 'honorable' firm Telespeed repair my TV. They charged me 175 Euro for it (almost the new price), and now, 2 weeks after repair, the TV is broken again ! So while the TV is still under guarantee, they still charge me 20 Euro for pickup & delivery of the TV. That's fucking theft ! I already regret that I did not buy a new TV instead...
