There are no 3rd party's that will unless there bought new. With Toshiba
you have 30days from new to buy one. The reason is, You buy one then
report it damaged and get it fixed.

well you could buy one they examine it , test it to be working, then
sell you a warranty. I guess they don't do that.

particular, will only sell a warranty within 30 days of the purchase of
a new computer from an authorized Toshiba dealer.

Please log in for more thread options If you buy it from some online retailers they offer warranties you can
purchase from a third party warranty company called, IIRC, Square Trade.
Unfortunately this company doesn't offer warranties in all places. When I
bought my refurbished Dell from a retailer on EBay, I couldn't buy the
warranty they offered because of my location. The stated reason is
"regulatory issues." They offer warranties if you're located in 48 of the 50
states. I'm not sure about foreign countries.
The warranty they offered on my Dell was for 3 years, parts and labor
for something like $35-40.
