As many of you know im a gaming freak :-)

I have been offered a playstation 3 with 16 origional ps3 games 2 control pads etc for £300 it's the old style ps3 with 160 gig hard drive, my question is do any of you think it's worth that amount of coin i am REALY tempted but unsure of what to do as i already own a ps3 with 21 games.

Any thoughts guys i don't realy have anybody else to ask apart from my friends on here thanx :-)

Compared to prices in my area, that is definitely NOT a good deal. There's a guy within 60 miles of me that has a 160GB PS3 for sale with 2 wireless controllers and a few games for $250 USD.

I don't know if that will help in your case, but hopefully will give you some idea.

Don't buy boxes anymore G i have all the ones i want minus one but i have never seen one on ebay in like 6 years of looking, it must be the rarest box in existance, it's a panna with a five band eq on the front plus front loading cd, for the life of me i can't remember the model number. ira might know the one :-)

I guess my real question is why would you need another PS3 unless your tossing the other against the wall after a bad round of "Call of Duty" or something. :hmmm:

You could probably do more with the money, like buy the games you don't have,or as was said earlier, go after a desired boomer... :hmmm:

Thanks G my friend on ebay uk they avarage around £200 £250 just for the console, on the face of it it seems the deal ain't to bad cuz there is a guy here and he sells second hand games for the ps3 for £35 each, part of my prob i have no ebay account of wich i can bid with, i always have to ask sombody else grrrr this is why in part jens is still so mad at me cuz of late payment for his bbdb, i know he is still mad because i joined stereo2go a couple pf months ago and he banned me yet again but all this is besides the point.

Ahh, yeah. No PayPal does slow/complicate things.

I'd look at buying one online from a site like playasia.com or something Tim.
You get exceptional service and prices from the big Hong Kong based game stores, I've been using them since 1996 for all my videogame consoles.

You may be able to get around the paypal thing by another payment method, it's worth a look anyway.


Good luck!



Rock On.
