Upset with Canon Service Center

[LHV]

Guys do you know where i can have my powershot A 560 repaired aside from Canon service center, nabasa kasi siya sa bag ko yung digicam inabutan ako ng malakas na ulan habang nagmomotor ako,

nag research ako about Canon Service center and they have good reviews kaya I have my hopes high na magagawa yung digicam ko kasi nag power up pa naman siya tsaka nag display pa yung LCD, pagdating ko ng Canon they are charging me 15 thousand for the repair of 3 parts samantalang 11 thou lang ang bili ko sa digicam ko and for 10 thousand I can buy the new 8megapixel A590IS,

Can you imagine having a service center like that, Can you imagine Honda, Toyota and the likes practicing their business like that pag nasira ang tsikot mo na 1M sisingilin ka ng P1.5 million to have it repaired

When I crashed my car before (the front cut was gone... radiator, power steering, etc. but not the engine) the cost of repairing the car using brand new parts is higher than the insured value of the car.

Another one, a Rav4 here encountered the infamous sludge problem... it'll cost the owner almost 500K to replace the engine with a brand new one. Similarly, a Honda Jazz with some problem with the CVT needs almost the same amount to replace the transmission with a brand new one.

short of telling you na canon digicams are disposable. got mine with extended 2-yr warranty. na-sales talk kasi ako na covered daw in case raw mabasa o ma-drop, though, wala pa namang problema sa unit ko so far.

Personally, extended warranties on electronics is a waste of money.

[voltes_V]

Kung hindi siya covered by warranty, just buy a new one, preferably yung waterproof. Once na mabasa kasi loob niyan, kahit anong electronic device, unreliable na siya. The service center will just end up making a full overhaul on the camera and you'll definitely be spending more than its actually worth.

What exactly is wrong with the camera that needs to be fixed?

Tell them to keep the camera.
