Check your consumer protection laws. In some countries, like mine, consumer protection laws require product to be repaired or replaced at no expense to the consumer "for the reasonably expected minimum lifetime" of the product. In the case of a console I'd say the reasonably expected minimum lifetime would be 3 years. So here if my console was just over a year old and it died without me doing something to break it our law would require replacement or repair without cost to me. This is why I never buy extended warranty because the law covers my ass and it doesn't cost me anything extra. |
Where do you live?

I live in Montréal and in my Province (Québec, Canada), the law is working the same way. Since this law is what we call in french ''d'ordre public'' it overules any contract that would try to lower your protection or limit the legal warranty given by the law. You can also use this warranty directly at the shop you bought the defective product. I think we have one of the best consumer protection law in NA.
