actually it was 200 not 300. he told me his friend was going sg, and i found an online shop that advertised psp repairs in sg. so my friend offered me to help me get it fixed. from the currency exchange rate i calculated it would cost below 100, or at least 150. when he said 200 i really got nothing to say. feel like waterfish. but at least for tat rm200 i can find out my friends true colors.
in fact i was planning to sell that psp to him. i didnt really want to care that it cost me 200 to get it fixed, i was happy it was fixed after so long, coz like whenever i bring to any shop all of them tell me they have to order replacement part la, need to check the psp la, send to repairman la. the best of all, the place where i bought my psp blamed me for installing/updating my cfw. BULLSHIT. i really won't buy from that shop anymore. anyway its one small shop that is near the edge of the floor 2nd or 3rd floor, not the one directly at an escalator. that shop's service was "great". i bought my psp there for over 900, with 4gb mem, sony earphones, psp casing, usb connector/charger and screen protector. complete set. but i was horrified when they told me i had to apply the screen protector myself which i f***ed up.
anyway back to my "friend", when he told me my psp was fixed, i got over the shock of the price, but within a week he told me the select button was not functioning. i told him straight that i wont be paying for anymore repairs, but i let him keep my psp to let him enjoy it (i m such a good friend). the problem came when i wanted it back, he was being such a b**** that I had to drive to his house without knowledge of his house location. best of all he was being "emo" and gave me directions thru sms and did not want to pick up my calls (during that week i have had called him over 100 times once also never pick up). finally when i met him he just passed the psp to me without even saying a word.
if go back even more into the past, actually i planned to give my psp to my gf. i did "let her have it". until she broke up with me, so i asked for it back.
sheeesh... my psp must be cursed....
