    See if any of that applies to you if you have a receipt and it wasn't your fault that it broke try to get a refund or replacement.

    the repairs don't really last for ylod but a fall may be just the hdd or a loose connection, but the shop you got it from won't do anything and Sony will charge a good bit for a replacement.

    Harvey Norman had an ad in the paper today for a slim with a move think it was 4.75 a week i didnt pay much attention as i wasnt looking for one at the time. Id check there although its much harder to get credit these days.

    seems a decent deal..

    it was 349.00 for a slim 320gb model with a choice of 3 games outa 6

    cant remember the titles of the top of my head but what do yous tink of this deal

    all i have to pay is 34.90 wen i pick it up and i can pay it off watever a month at my leisure ( which i was thinkin 100 per week ) and id have it paid in 4 weeks basically?

    seems a very good deal

    It was the new Harvey catalogue in a local Limerick paper.

    I have the ad here in front of my its not a credit situation its something called Flexirent ?? :confused: appears to be that you rent the PS3 and move controller for 4.20 a week for 36 months. Im not sure if you then own it, all it says is they retain owners ship throughout the term of the agreement.

    Only bonus i can see is if it broke down again you could just give it back to them. Other wise by the end of the 3years your PS3 will have cost you 655euro.
