If an item tends to be very expensive to repair, how might that affect your decision to purchase a warranty for it?

a.
If an item is very expensive to repair, it is probably easier to buy a new one than to repair it, so a warranty is probably not worth it.
b.
The price of a warranty is based on the price of the repairs, so a warranty might not be a good idea.
c.
Buying an extended warranty might be a good idea so that you do not have to repair the item yourself.
d.
Buying a limited warranty might be a good idea because limited warranties sometimes do not deal with repairs, meaning that you will not have to handle these expensive repairs.

The most logical choice in this context is:

c. Buying an extended warranty might be a good idea so that you do not have to repair the item yourself.

This option suggests that since repairs are costly, having a warranty could provide peace of mind, as it would cover those expenses and alleviate the burden of dealing with repairs out of pocket.
