Well that's a lot more reasonable, and I agree. One year seems too short.

By the way when I read $99 I was thinking $9 and thought that's not a big deal. lol
Yeah, I'd rather buy a new PS4 than fix it for that price. Maybe try fixing it yourself with a youtube tutorial.

I forked over the money for their repair. Now let's see if I get my system back with the 1TB HDD that I put in it. Heck, let's see if they fix it at all. 

Edit: Also, having just looked up PS4 failure rates being at just under 1%, I'm a little more confident in their hardware. 

Could consider a move to the EU?

Here we have 24 months warranty on all electronics by EU regulations.
