Ironically, the person is dealing with Sony Canada. Below is an update of the original post. -- Mike from Morgantown
Update: Just for the record, he's dealing with a repair center in Ontario, Canada, the same one with which I dealt with late last year and had a positive experience with. I wrote a full article praising them about it. Mind you, I bought a 40GB model, so I avoided this situation. I linked to his TAWKN.com profile. I hope he's okay with that... Update 2: here's a screenshot of the MTC repair status screen, with his name, Sony Style Store number, and work order numbers blurred out, at his request. You can still see his PS3 model and serial number, however.

Thanks for adding this Mike from Morgantown :)

I think the difference is this is a retailer's extended warranty. Sony Style is not SCEA. The Sony Style "extended warranty" would be no different than a Gamestop/Best Buy extended warranty. The customer in this instance should look at the warranty he bought to determine if Sony Style is allowed to exchange for a different model number. In this case, he would have been better off not buying the Sony Style extended warranty and just dealt with SCEA directly. It would have cost $150, but he would have received the same model back.
