$ony replacement = gh4y

I guess it firstly depends what country you're in, and secondly on the reason for repair.

I'm in England, and my PS3 stopped reading reading disc games all of a sudden - they'd rarely load, and when they did load they'd crash. I told Sony this and they came to collect my PS3 last week for repair. This suggests to me that I experienced somewhat of an epidemic problem, given that a lot of people on this and other forums have had the same problem, so mayb that also determines Sony's policy on repairs.

I'm in the US.
my PS3 has troubles reading blu-ray discs, sometimes it won't load either a map, song or something, and others it will not let me exit the game ( it will freeze)

i got a replacement one and payed nothing for them to fix my original one but the warranty last me only 30 days after that

Yeah I don't think they send replacements out in the US first.

yea, they went back on their decision to re-extend my warranty another year (like Nintendo does) and told me it would cost $156 to get it fixed.
i like how they told me that they had reset the information to restart a one year warrenty when i got it fixed, yet $ony doesn't care about it.
i was only 2 days out of my origional warranty when i called!
