My Nexus S's motherboard died and the guys at Samsung service centre are demanding $160 for a replacement. I am really confused as to what I should do. $160 is too steep, but the phone is in mint condition.
Any suggestions? I live in India, so consider local prices too if you would suggest buying a used Nexus S instead of getting mine repaired.

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

P.S.; Prices of used nexus s at ebay.in starts at $200!!

How are u sure it's dead ? Samsung service doesn't repair motherboards they just replace them so if ur phone doesn't work for reason A or B they just replace the motherboard or whatever is defect.
You can try a regular mobile phone service center and ask them how much they want for a repair.
200$ or 160$ for just a nexus s it's really a high amount ur better off with a new phone

ps. what happen to ur nexus and it doesn't work now ?

The phone had been dropped in water in the past, but that was repaired, and did not include a motherboard replacement. This time, my sister dropped the phone on the ground, and it has not switched on since. The guys at Samsung say that the motherboard needs to be replaced :(
