I live far away from the store, plus, I ripped the box in half so I don't think they will take it back, I might try phoning Sony.

I'm not at home to look at my PS3 and see how its connected, but at least call the store and tell them the situation and see if they can help you out some how. Either way its just a cosmetic thing its not going to hurt the performace of the PS3.

Why would you rip the box in half on a brand new console when you knew you might have to return it for some reason or another?

What if it didn't turn on in the first place? You might not be able to return it without the box, I dunno.

He never said he ripped anything. That was another user that said that. Relax.

Why would you do that? Seriously that's you're own fault if they dont take it back. You can easily take the PS3 out of the box without damaging the box.

Different user? Flam3Thr0w3r posted this topic, and he also said the thing about him ripping the box. It is the same user... dur.

EDIT* See?
