u cant. where u want to buy? sonystyle?

no need check. just check the box is it sealed or not. normal shop LOVES to open the boxes and have you check it, this means the boxes are not sealed anymore, means maybe they change the items inside? use it as demo?

better have a sealed one. if problem, just send back

Yeap. From sonystyles outlet. Can the games be exchange with other titles? If not, which package is better?

Check out latest price from SonyStyle. As what my fren told me they had increased the price due to currency exchange. I think everyone will shock to see it.

Console Only - RM1,599 -> RM 1,799
Console + 2 Game - RM 1,799 -> RM 1,899
DS3 - RM 169 -> RM189

Even game also increased around RM20-RM30
Previously the Uncharted Drake's Fortune is RM 189 now RM 219.

Check it out at sonystyle.com

p/s:SonyMY did it again. Luckily i get mine during launch. RM 1968 - Console + 2 Games + 1 extra controller with freebies.

Even PS2 price also increased. Last month can get a full set under RM500. Now RM550.

I also think its due to the currency.

Anyone had problem with the SGset PS3 before?

Imo, better get my set. The price difference is not really big but easier for claiming warranty sice now, owner himself must be present to claim warranty.

Frankly, i'm kinda lost faith in ps3 due to ylod issue... Might jump ship to xbox. Only thing holding me back is ff series and the lousy xbox controller.
