Canon Service Center Experience unexpected surprise
11

I have had great service with Canon repairing in the past.  They have fixed out of warranty stuff at no charge.  So I have always spoke highly of them.  
This time when my son dropped my M3 I took into the Costa Mesa, CA center (which is a cool place to visit).   They told me they couldn't fix it but could exchange it for a refurbished one for $240.    That seemed like a lot but I still really liked my M3 and thought for $240 it would still be a great camera or eventual back up body.

Well when my replacement M3 arrived, it was not an M3.  It was an M6!  So that money ended up being very well spent.   Not sure if you guys have an M3 your on the fence about getting fixed, but it just might be worth it.
