Sony Runs Lik-Sang.com Out Of Business
By Jimmy Daniels

Lik-Sang.com has posted a notice on their website stating that Sony has forced them out of business because of multiple lawsuits against them, including infringing on Sony’s trade marks, copyright and registered design rights by selling Sony PSP consoles from Asia to European customers.
As of today, Lik-Sang.com will not be in the position to accept any new orders and will cancel and refund all existing orders that have already been placed. Furthermore, Lik-Sang is working closely with banks and Pay Pal to refund any store credits held by the company, and the customer support department is taking care of any open transactions such as pending RMAs or repairs and shipping related matters. The staff of Lik-Sang will make sure that nobody will get hurt in the crossfire of this ordeal.
A Sony spokesperson declined to comment directly on the lawsuit against Lik-Sang, but recently went on to tell Gamesindustry.biz that “ultimately, we’re trying to protect consumers from being sold hardware that does not conform to strict EU or UK consumer safety standards, due to voltage supply differences et cetera; is not - in PS3’s case - backwards compatible with either PS1 or PS2 software; will not play European Blu-Ray movies or DVDs; and will not be covered by warranty”.
Lik Sang strongly disagrees with Sony’s opinion that their customers need this kind of protection and pointed out that PSP consoles shipped from Lik-Sang contained genuine Sony 100V-240V AC Adapters that carry CE and other safety marks and are compatible world wide. All PSP consoles were in conformity with all EU and UK consumer safety regulations. Source: Lik-Sang.com
We Say: Looking at the comments on Lik-Sang’s site, Sony has just made lots of its customers mad, again.

I long ago stopped buying anything from Sony. Nothing but bad experiences with their merchandise.

If you read the entire Lik-Sang notice, quite a few director’s and up at Sony were customers at Lik-Sang!
Bad Sony… very bad. Guess I’m definitely going for the Wii this Christmas instead of the PS3.

Haven’t liked Sony since the Viao laptop I bought. Thing was so unstable as to be unusable, the battery died fast too, guess it was a precurser. No biggie, just know I won’t be buying a Sony TV for a few more decades.
