buy MY set - rosak in 1 year time, can bring to sony and change.
If rosak after 1 year, can still bring into sony for service. Buy SG set - cheaper by rm100-200, warranty everything need to be done in SG. after 1 year, servicing only can be done in game shop. |

I have a SG set. But I live in JB so there's no worries about warranty problems since SG is just over a bridge lol.

buying from sony style nets you a decent amount of sony points, which more than covers the savings you get if you buy SG or even MY sets from game shops.

Is the sony point u mean is the membership card that u can apply while purchasing the console and used it on the spot to get the discount?Added on April 13, 2010, 2:01 am QUOTE(Mgsrulz @ Apr 13 2010, 01:47 AM) I may not be so lucky.

yes. but you can only use the points for the next purchase, so get the ps3 set, pay, get points and then only buy that extra controller or hdmi cable.
not sure how much is the rebate %, but between my ps3, lcd tv, the missus' laptop etc... them points never seem to run out for me |
