[QUOTE="Cm_low, post: 8548567, member: 671764"] The repair shops I have talked to were right around 165-185 for the repair if it is nothing crazy to fix. This is with replacement parts upto like $65-75 included. Anything beyond this is more plus shipping. I am not sure if there is any other hidden cost that they are not disclosing. Most websites for shops say they charged a diagnosis fee no matter if you get it fixed or not but these two quoted prices never mentioned that. The approximate price I had figured was $20 for the shipping each way, at least that was the price for an amp I just shipped a few days ago. So total price is around $250-275 which I guess is correct for the amp at a used sale price. It becomes a gamble though because who knows exact repair price.[IMG]//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crap.gif.7f4dd41e3e9b23fbd170a1ee6f65cecc.gif[/IMG] I'm thinking not worth the risk.....unless someone else has some insight otherwise.
