What to do with my ps3?

My ps3 got yellow light of death (2 months ago). I really miss playing. I have two choices of who to send it in to. Sony will charge $150 and just send me a refurbished one with clean hdd. If I send it in to ps-pros they cost about $100 and I keep my hdd data. They fix it with a “heat gun”. But I read that after it gets fixed, its life expectensy(spelled wrong lol) is 6 months to 2 years. Before I sent my ps3 one year after purchase for fried bluray laser to sony. So it got ylod just about 8-9 months after I got it back. Who should I send it to? Im leanin towards ps-pros

Answer #1

I’d send to sony…unless you’re really going to miss your data. Reason being, the shelf life will be much longer overall…(and have you seen the new motion control demos? They ROCK).
