Ok, lets say I dont have a receipt (I dont) and then my PS3 breaks. Will SONY take it back? My friends waited in line at launch so they can buy 3 PS3's and put them on eBay. He gave me a 20GB for flatout $500 and never gave me a receipt. He now moved and he cant find the receipt. Will I be totally screwed?

the only thing you need to give them is the serial number on the back of the PS3

unfortunately this happened to me...and you DO need the recepit for the to take it back otherwise youll have to pay $150..at least that was the amount they demanded back then.....so i dunno if they changed the rules,,,,but about 6 months ago it was no receipt-no free repair
