here's the part which you can buy from ebay. The $140 is fine so long as I get my PS3 running as soon as possible as it is indeed a wonderful piece of equipment. If I waited for Sony, it might take weeks. Even if they send the coffin, It would still take weeks since the item isn't there in the US. I still have to ship it there to a friend who will take care of sending it to Sony once they agree to fix it.
So all in all $140 is a fair price.
