QUOTE(e30 @ Dec 8 2010, 01:08 AM) hi, just wanna ask, is it worth it to buy a ps3 slim from america? i checked online and the price there for 160gb is $299.99 or roughly rm950. and no, i wont be going there often so warranty is pretty much null. up to u... if u don't care abt warranty, might as well get it even tho its highly recommended to get MY set

just wondering-
is the warranty by SONY malaysia for MY sets limited as in they charge for some problems and warranty is only covered for certain parts only? (heard this from a dealer, not sure if he wants to con my friend..just asking for a friend since i've got a MY set ps3)
and 1 more thing, does the SONY centre here in MY warranty cover the YLOD problem (assuming of course the ps3 is a MY set)?
