beware of masterchef... paid for a PS1 game 2 weeks ago and haven't heard anything from this person. Sent a PM on Monday Feb 13th and it still hasn't been read. In fact, this person hasn't been on racketboy's forums since Feb 6th, the day after I sent payment. I've initiated a dispute with paypal o...

Re: PS3/Xbox "Reballing" - Leaded Solder vs. Lead Free Solde

Bringing this back from the dead, so as to bring some closure to the thread. After shipping the console back to the servicer, I told them that I was in transition and I wanted to have them hold off shipping the repaired PS3 back to me for a couple weeks while I get situated in my new home. I called ...

Re: NYC Racketboy Members Meetup - Let's Get This Started!

Hey, you can put me on the potential roster. I'm moving to NJ at the beginning of October. Might be a while before I can attend one as I settle in, but I'll try to get to one of these at some point!

Re: PS3/Xbox "Reballing" - Leaded Solder vs. Lead Free Solder

2 months is not a long time, except that in those 2 months, I used it a total of maybe 6 times, 2 of which were to back the console up (i.e. - no games were played). The console arrived yesterday and I will be calling today to confirm that they received it and find out when they will look at it.

Re: PS3/Xbox "Reballing" - Leaded Solder vs. Lead Free Solder

Yes a 90 day warranty is fairly standard on repairs (in any industry), but it doesn't give you much confidence in the work like a year warranty does. I'd say it's a smart business move to offer something like that as I'm sure they'd get more work because of it, and therefore can afford to redo the ...

Re: PS3/Xbox "Reballing" - Leaded Solder vs. Lead Free Solder

I would be wary of any company offering a 1 year warranty on PS3 reballs. I currently have one of the best BGA machines in the USA out of all the small companies that do these repairs. I currently offer a 90 day warranty on PS3 reballs. And I am pretty confident I am doing some of the best PS3 reba...

Re: PS3/Xbox "Reballing" - Leaded Solder vs. Lead Free Solder

Hmm. Did they definitely do a reball, or just a reflow? Do they advertise as having a BGA workstation? IF they do then it's a good sign that they did actually reball and you just got unlucky. It does seem quite fishy that it broke right away though. Well, they sell the BGA workstation and accessori...
