Shipping Information:
  • PS3 & 3D Display Customers
        - If a Customer has a PS3 system or a 3D display that requires servicing or technical support, they must call Sony Computer
          Entertainment America at 1-800-345-7669 before contacting MTC. When the Customer calls this number,
          they will receive a Service Request (SR) #.
        - Once the SR # is received the Customer has 2 options:
            - If the Customer lives in the area close to MTC Whitby, ON, they can drop off or ship their unit into MTC
              for a Warranty repair.
            - If the Customer doesn't live in an area close to MTC Whitby, ON, then during the Customers' initial call to
              Sony, Sony will make the arrangements to have MTC send the Customer a box to use to safely transport
              their unit. With this box, they can ship their unit into MTC (prepaid Purolator waybill will be supplied).
              Sony Computer Entertainment America will not accept any warranty units damaged through shipping
              because the Customer did not properly package their PlayStation in the MTC packaging.
        - SCEA will arrange for Warranty & Out of Warranty Customers' to have a box delivered to them at no
          cost (upon the initial service/technical support phone call).
        - The shipping costs for the Customers' unit being shipped to MTC plus the final outgoing shipping costs back
          to the Customer will be covered under Warranty or under the Flat Rate pricing for Out of Warranty
          repairs (click here to see the Flat Rate pricing).

          into MTC for a Warranty repair.
        - If the Customer doesn't live in an area close to MTC Whitby, ON, they can ship their PlayStation system into
          MTC for a Warranty repair/exchange.
        - Customers will be responsible for paying for the incoming shipping charges. All outgoing shipping charges
          are included in the Flat Rate pricing (click here to see the Flat Rate pricing).
