You can just ask for quotes from dealers in this forum. Price for Singapore sets should be about RM13xx. Malaysian sets about RM15xx. If budget limited, look for 2nd hand sets in forums here .... many people selling. QUOTE(NikoBelly @ Oct 6 2008, 03:30 AM) Umm can someone help me please?I'll be really happy if you do.Thank you.

40gb ps3 of course
there's no more 20gb ps3
SG=singapore warranty
malaysia=local warranty
of course u can buy sg set, most local game shop also sell it before malaysia set arrived here
juz buy sg set ps3, u don;t need the warranty,trusted local game shop(bernard,DiJiNn,nelson) can fix ur ps3

Okay then, seems the price is around 1500 or slightly less.
When I finally have that amount I'll go shopping for my PS3 then.
Anyone bought from the game shop in Subang Parade before? The one where the auntie is the owner?
Seems decent and near to my house also but I dunno how's the price compared to others.

As long as you register the warranty online, you'll get it. I just registered my SG set yesterday. You'll need a valid SG address tho (I used my friend's) and now I'm covered one year from Sony SG. BTW, for niko, stick to the trusted sellers in the forum

When you sign up for the warranty, they'll ask you how you got it. I just selected "received as gift". As long as the serial number of your console is valid and has never been registered, you can register for the warranty. When the process is done, Sony issues you a Warranty Contract Number. Save this. It's important. I guess you just need that.

Stay away from that shop! It's probably one of the most over-priced shop I've ever been to. Go and ask for the PS3 price if u don't believe me.
