Trying to assist a friend with a faulty 60GB PS3. It's a refurbished unit bought about 2 years ago and has developed a problem reading any discs. The PS3 is far removed from the limited warranty offered from the company it was purchased through and as it was previously repaired by a 3rd party, I have doubts that Sony would even accept the unit back for servicing.
Over the last few days, I've been looking through a few websites that offer 3rd party repair for defective 360s and PS3s. I have a few options that seem they may be reputable enough and can do the repairs for about $100 -$130 with limited warranty.
Before my friend takes the plunge and gets his PS3 in the mail, I thought i'd ask if any Goozex users have had dealings with 3rd party repair sites over the internet and if anyone can suggest a reputable one.
Thanks in advance for any advice!

i would try going to a local computer/videogame store and finding out if they will do it and ask them whether they know aboot these websites.
Agreed. Check locally. Check craigslist. At least around here, and in seattle, and portland, you'll find at least 4 people at any given time doing 360, wii, and ps3 repairs. Average price for not reading discs seems to be $60-100. You get it back a lot faster, too. There's a used game shop around here that does repairs too, and that one would cost 80.
