You make good points. It just seems excessive to me. I know that no matter what was wrong with the system he would have charged me at least $150 if not more. I don't know a lot about the electronics repair business so I only really know what he does as a person. You would think a friend would do...

I'm reasonably sure that it was heating because the fan was jammed because it was visibly clogged and I can here the fan running now, this isn't a new PS3 I bought it two days after PS3's came out I've had it a long time and this is the first time it's been taken all the way apart and cleaned...

It really depends I guess. You have a point when someone brings in a $300 HDTV that needs to have a bunch of new circuits ordered in and soldered, he can only charge up to a certain worth of a new television but he puts in a lot of hours but on the other hand he tried to charge me 50% of the...

I thought it was okay, I enjoyed an hour of something different for one night. My favorite cancelled show is Megas XLR... greatest Giant Mecha Animation ever made.

He doesn't go hungry and he's the only guy in the area who does what he does. It's just that it took me only half an hour to remedy the problem. I had to go slow and carefully, because I had a shitty mutltitool and had to keep careful track of the screws and I haven't ever seen the inside of a...

Ruby version is the only one I still have and regularly play so. I'm apparently one of the few people who ran through all this on the first go and laughed

I set up whatever we're doing, assign the roles then assign someone else to be in charge of everyone else, then do nothing for the rest of the endeavor. Afterwards I put A MATTZERO production in huge letters across the top.

I edited the OP to address a lot of this. I know him personally, he's a friend who runs an all purpose repair shop. I brought my PS3 into him and showed him what it was doing and he said it was going to be at least $150 to fix and he didn't even open it up. I've always taken his estimates at...

I just feel like $300 an hour is a little excessive of an estimate for taking out about fifteen screws and blowing. I know he didn't know what was wrong, maybe it needed something else or a replacement fan, but I also know for a fact he wouldn't have lowered the price when he found out I had a...

Sorry I didn't mean to insult you. Having the comparison it makes my wording sound incredibly exaggerated and melodramatic. Again, I didn't mean to insult your life.

I'm on a Boat by Lonely Island. I can't help but laugh. It's so funny how confrontational they are in the video.

When someone compliments me I have the habit of saying: "That's right, I'm the next best thing to your personal lord and savior."

I hate it when a blueray has a nice cardboard slip and the fucks at the store plaster a 5% off sticker right across the front. Just put a sign over the damn movie rack.

That brings up the reason i attempted this. Even if I couldn't get it to work again 80gig PS3's can be sold part by part and you can make enough to buy a slim. So I was going to win either way.

Auto repair I understand. Sometimes that takes actual work. I literally just blew two pieces of dust away.
