astra guess what i got not a 80 the sent me a 60 gig looks new so that is a new one with all its card slots on the front lol

 

[Nani121]

So am i right in thinking if i purchase a faulty PS3 give them the serial off an 80gb model i will have the faulty one replaced?

Maybe i could try eBay for a faulty one then!

YLOD is usually overheating problem (crappy thermal paste they used ) sony charge 128 quid and replace with a refurbished unit if they have a 60 gig to replace they will send that otherwise normally a 80 gig model and give a 3 month warranty if you want to attempt to repair it yourself its the same method as RROD for xbox 360

Well guys an update on this story

I phoned sony yesterday and gave them the serial number off my 40g with the cechm03 at the end, went through the all the cr*p with him, so the guy eventually says yes it in warranty and yes it needs to come in, so he said that they would pick up the console today for REPAIR, and that it will take up to 3 weeks before I get it back.

He did say exchange first then changed it to repair in the same breath, so I didn't know if that was just to put people off from trying it on and to flush out the ones that said no they just wanted an exchange.

Well the courier came today and guess wot I had to send him away with the same as he came with,

"NOTHING"

so I guess that answers the question if sony have caught on yet and the answer to that one is a great big yes, so NO MORE gooooood exchanges.

So hopefully the people that makes things like this public knowledge far to quick will MAYBE learn a valuble lesson from this, because it could be them next time that wants to get somthing changed and can't because other people have spoiled for everyone else by not keeping things under wraps.

Yes sony would of caught on eventually, but everyone could of maybe enjoyed it for another couple of months if it had been kept quiet a bit longer.
