In well over 20 years I've never had an Amiga that had to be repaired or had to be thrown out, the only things I've ever had any problems with or had to repair myself are monitors or floppy drives. 
I must be either real careful or just a jammy git when I look at all the post's folk write about having to replace caps, batteries and the like...
