The laser doesnt light up, it doesnt spin, nothing.

£60-100 to try and fix it by replacing the laser as it could just die again so i now have a very big door stop and will be buying a new slim PS3 with an extended warranty.

Take it in 15 mins before store closing on a friday night and they won't even turn it on, they'll be more intersted in getting you done and dusted so they can lock up.Just make sure the box and all the gubbins are nice and neat.
