Ps3 ylod... <.<

[drkdeath5000]

Havent been on here in over a year but figured id share my ylod experiences. I've had 2 ylod ps3's in total. 1st one i rang sony who sent me a refurb one for £150 ! 6 months later this refurb died making it my 2nd ylod, rang sony who wanted another £150. After being a little wiser this time i refused to pay the £150 and instead quoted the SOGA (sales of goods act), immediately they changed their tone and agreed to send me another refurb free of charge. A lot of people dont realise this but regardless of what the warranty says under the SOGA the ps3 has to last atleast 6 years, if it breaks within these 6 years due to a manufacturing fault the retailer you bought it from have to replace it or refund you. By law they have to and if they dont you can pursue down the small courts route.

p.s. this applies to the uk but id imagine the rest of the world or the eu atleast would have something similar in place to protect consumers.
