    EASY ON THE CAP LOCKS. And to start off what exactly is wrong with it? Is it the flashing yellow light? Does it not read disks?

    Yes, you should be able to send it to Sony, I believe it costs £150 but call Sony to double check.

    Is there no retail warranty in Guam? Can you not just take it back to where you bought it?

    a) look it up on their website
    b) tell them your PS3 is broken, give them specific details as to what happened. It's not hard!

    The model # should be on the back of the ps3 aswell if I'm not mistaken.
