Fixing PS3

**portokiwi** · 18th August 2008, 12:16

Hi all just a question..... Does anyone here know where in the Auckland city area I could get my PS3 fixed.
The lazor is not reading. We have had it for over a year now.
Any help would be great.

my ex works for sony. That is what he does. Fixes them.

Called him. He will fix it under warranty for you. So long as it has not been dropped or got water damage etc.

He said drop it to him at his work.

Unit 5 Paul Matthews Road, Albany. (reception)
Any problems ask for Matt. He said it will take a few days.

ahhh don't think you get it.

I asked a favour and he said they will do it for you. No charge. Usual cost is $460 I explained you had no warranty and he said they would sneak it through.

It will be about 2 or 3 days and will probably be couriered back to you. He said you only need to leave it at the front desk but if you have any problems ask for matt.

Damn - a catch-22. Sounded almost too good to be true.

We are still good friends and he is that sort of person. I asked and he didn't even hesitate.

Took the Play station in. Jaras Ex is a very nice guy. Very helpfull.
We got the forms signed aprently this problem is noted by Sony which is good.
My step sons ps3 was covered in Portugal but as we moved over here we have bits all over between here and there. We couldnt find the papers could be at mums her brothers here who knows.
But with help from friends like Jara and her ex on a great site like Kiwi Biker things are allways better.
Again Thank you.
