So far I have had to purchase two Ps3s (some people might consider me lucky) as my old and trusty phat PS3 recently 'died' due to YLOD. All my PSN games,saves and torphies are in there and I still haven't removed the old HDD and imported the data to my new one. :/

I think if the YLOD happens again, I will leave the PS scene for awhile and come back once the PS4 prices have dropped more.

for your case is really lucky. I've met a seller recently and chatted for awhile. He mention that he bought his PS3 since launch until now and still working fine. He is even luckier than u lol... 8 years adi he said... Envy~

Wow that is impressive. I have heard that the ylod is caused mainly due to excessive heating such as the ps3 being played for long periods of time without proper ventilation (like if the ps3 is in a cupboard and the hot air cant escape) then it is more likely to happen. Good for your friend though smile.gif
