Looking for a great deal on a ps3, I'll pay up but listen, you better beat a pawn shop price cuz if I want to pay a new price I'd go buy it. Cracks me up when sellers list their stuff at almost the msrp price.

dude pawn shops are notorious for jacking up their prices im like wtf is wrong with them, it is used. I got pissed off told the guy id rather buy a new one and i did.

honorcode3 · 12-13-2009, 11:25 PM

I'm pretty sure you can haggle with the pawn shop guys... Next time you're there you should try it. Your best bet for a PS3 might be waiting till after X-mas and seeing if they put them on sale for a couple of days. Good luck.

yut_to_that · 12-13-2009, 11:44 PM

60 gb... i'd say that's a little high, but it's one of the originals that have backwards compatibility.

Buy a new one! There's a ton of deals with bundled games out there.

Richk14 · 12-14-2009, 08:52 AM

Theres a deal going on with Sony. You can buy a big flatscreen and a ps3 and save like 1100 bucks... it comes with games. I'm pretty sure this doesnt help you, but i figured id throw it out there!!

Mr. Ed · 12-14-2009, 09:16 AM

radioshack ...original style 80 gb is 249. go get one

^yup!!

I think it ended on the 12th though. A friend of mine was selling the new ps3 he got for $280. Not relevant or helpful, just felt like posting.

this is the best option. Mainly because (hopefully) by then people will have cracked it and you won't have to pay for games anymore!

I will, when I stop having fun with my modded 360!

Or whenever Konami announces IIDX 17 for PS3 in a few months, then you'll see me spending surplus amounts of money on a JP PS3... and a new beatmania controller.. so I can play my one game and play my old jap PS1 games in faux-HD. orz...

zentrandi · 12-14-2009, 11:22 PM

amazing... thats why i just have a hacked DS and PSP...

Hacked PSP, Wii, Modded PS2, and 360. I think I'll pass on the PS3 for now.

zentrandi · 12-15-2009, 11:15 AM

sounds good to me. i have too many systems and not enough time to play on them... my wii collects dust... and my ps3 is just a glorified dvd upscaler to me... but, i do enjoy the games i have.

atomicfire · 12-15-2009, 11:53 AM

The 60GB ps3 has a much higher aftermarket resale value because it has the PS2 emotion engine in it for near 100% backwards compatibility. The older fat style PS3's are also only the versions able to install Linux on it. If backwards compatibility is not a selling point for you, then you shouldn't be looking at the 60gb models, which have a very high resale value, particularly if they're in working condition.

TexRyker · 12-15-2009, 01:59 PM

NE1 want to trade their PS3 for a 360? I have 2x360 and 0xPS3
