This crazy lady who managed my local gamestop when I lived in Utah told me when I managed to find a launch PS3 in December of 2006 that they were having high failure rates and I could buy a three year replacement warranty for $70. Despite the fact there were no such reports of high failure rates and the warranty was only $50. I wound up talking with investor relations about it (I was a shareholder at the time) who put me in touch with their regional manager. I felt it was extremely dishonest of her to do that, and the regional manager (someone named Debbie if I recall) agreed. A month later I got a call from Debbie (or whatever her name was) and was told that lady was let go. Cool beans.
