Olympus extended warranty..

[skellington]

Olympus is offering their extended warranties for 20% off.

I bought it for my refurbished 12-40mm. $64+tax (and free shipping) seems like a reasonable investment for 4 years of protection on such an expensive lens.

I looked at this and thought about it. Does anyone know if the warranty is transferrable? Also with the camera warranty, it looks like you get a free cleaning once within the warranty. Is there anything like that for lenses? Maybe a calibration in the warranty period? Also, if you send it in for warranty so you provide shipping or is that taken care of by Olympus?

IIRC, warranties are not transferrable.

Is this better than SquareTrade?I considering for my e-M10. SquareTrade $64 (with 40% discount) and Olympus $80, both extra 2 years, except SqTr includes Accidental. They only insure repairs up to purchase price, whereas Olympus will repair and replace as necessary as many times as necessary, right?
