PS3 80GB £125.. blimey.

Just thought id give anyone a heads up that might be tempted. You can currently get a Brand New 80GB PS3 from a certain auction site for £125 + £10 P&P.

I wasn't going to buy a PS3 after selling my old 60GB model but at this price its a great dedicated blur-ray player.. although just checked and there are only 60 left. (from 250 yesterday)

Are you selling it?

nintenjo · 18 Jun 2009 at 22:01

No i am going to keep it.. but i am tempted to buy another to sell one.. I have seen that one customer bought 50 Units! at that price i can see why.

Nismo · 18 Jun 2009 at 22:02

Just found it, bizzarre

Did he hijack a lorry or a container ship?

You think Paypal will cover you if it is a scam? I have never really used paypal protection but assuming this is under £500 is there any drawbacks getting money back if it is a scam?

Can't find it

Not that I want one, but still

gazzamcg · 18 Jun 2009 at 22:08

It's a power seller and it looks genuine :eek:

I bought a ps3 last week but sending it back as I don't think it's worht the money ..... however one for £135 is good

Strife212 · 18 Jun 2009 at 22:09

Makes me question why I paid over £500 for mine, ah well.

Christ. Temptation vs Worry...

Ordered 1. Paypal protection should be sufficient, I hope

wow. you can get store credit for around £176 for a boxed 80gb ps3. Is anyone going to buy one?

nintenjo · 18 Jun 2009 at 22:16

Yeah i believe a few have already been bought.. one by me.

Syph · 18 Jun 2009 at 22:21

I think I might buy one - got to ask the boss first of course!

/EDIT: PayPal seems to cover it... https://www.paypal.com/helpcenter/m...s=solutionPanels&solutionId=163499&isSrch=Yes

gazzamcg · 18 Jun 2009 at 22:21

There's 63 left currently.

At first I was convinced but as the minutes have past, i'm not sure.

Be very careful with paypal their protection only protects themselves,you could be sent an empty box by the seller but if he has a signature for delivery paypal will tell you that you have no comeback.

Grumps82 · 18 Jun 2009 at 22:23

Hmmmm, Its a bargain but too big a risk for me. Good luck though to anyone here that buys. Could be a cracking purchase..

Distance Selling Regulations would cover you if Paypal didn't. I have bought the item, but am not gonna make a payment for a day or two I think...

I was a bit concerned at first but i have spoken to my brother who has previously bought an Xbox 360 from this seller and it turned up fine as stated was all good.

jojothemonkey69 · 18 Jun 2009 at 22:25

If I buy one. How much profit can I see. Cash exchange is only 141. Unless you sell it on again advertised as brand new. What if it doesn't work etc. I think i'll pass. If it seems to good to be true then it probably is.

If it is legit then thats ace but there's not a big enough profit margin for me to purchase one
