Be Excellent To Each Other

Bugger it. My PSP-3000 which I bought off eBay "*NEW* L@@K!" has developed a couple of stuck blue pixels. I've tried running an "un-sticker" program for a couple of hours and rubbing the screen but to no avail. Boo! The eBay seller is now no longer a user, apparently. Gah!

Do you think Sony will touch it as an under warranty fix? Anyone know how to contact them?

My Atari Lynx had a dead pixel. But I didn't post on the internet to bitch about it.*

However Sony should be obligated to fix it providing you have a proof of purchase and you can prove it was new. I would suggest you book a session in an internet cafe or local library and pop along to the Sony Support website to see if they will provide you with a human, or perhaps robot replica, to speak to.


* This was in 1992 and I didn't know what a dead pixel was. LCD screens being exciting and new and everything. And even with a dead pixel it still totally destroyed the Gameboy and Gamegear screens.

The PSP-3000 is too new to be out of warranty, right? So phone Sony and request a warranty repair. Keep quiet about eBay, and if you're asked, tell 'em it was a gift from a relative who has since passed away.

'Wood, you are an evil genius.

Yeah, well, that was then this is now... and whinging is the order of the day!

Anyway, got hold of Sony and they will repair under warranty! Woot!
