UMD Drive dead?

[DP23]

Ahh... if it would be sooo simple I would have done that real sooner.
No. Problem is Im from Germany... at my Country PSP´s arent sold YET!
(September is the launch Date)

I bought mine from Ebay. So there is no returning
I think the only way to solve this is a new UMD Drive...

Heard the will be sold soon.

Well,
Send your psp back then. You must have guarantee on it.

Im from the Netherlands and also got a PSP, here they have a certain shop in Rotterdam where you can buy PSP's and the PSP games

[DP23]

I´ll say it again...

...bought it from Ebay. No returning after 2 weeks!

But THX!

Sony should have a warranty option for PSP bought overseas. You'll find they'll announce the costs closer to the launch in that country. It won't be free that's for sure

[DABhand]

Its 2nd hand so they wont oblige.

Thats why the thing was probably being sold on ebay.

[DP23]

No. Its not second hand!
The Box was sealed and the PSP Brand new.

You can tell just by looking at it. I time touching that thing...
never looks like new again.

Sony HAS problems with dead drives. Ive read a little about
it now and it seems that the first one from Japan had that issue.

So, no big deal... never intended to actually buy games!

PEACE

You could always buy a new one when they come out in your country and return the old one...

It`s an old trick I have used before, in busy stores where the staff arent too hot on these things...
