Well you are now off to a good start. Try your local reputable dealer and
you'll find you can get the same services and pay about the same. The big
box stores don't have any bargains.
You may or may not need a new cord as that depends on what you have. At
$15, it is a typical price for them. Many small dealers now belong to
buying co-ops such as Brand Source, and offer the same prices as the big box
stores and usually offer far better service. Next day delivery? My local
dealer often delivers the same day if you are in early.
