Playstation 3 Backwards Compatible 160GB System

[Haven]

Hello!

New at the forums, but I've been an HG101 visitor for years and finally registered. Though this is my first time selling here, I want to let y'all know that I've been selling stuff in Ancient Land of Ys since 2005 back when I sold my copy of Oath in Felghana for the PC.

Anyway, today I'm selling a backwards compatible (Yes you can play PS2 games!) PS3 system with an upgraded 160Gb hard drive!

Price: $199.95!

Shipping depends on location (PM me your address for a price quote), but expect it to be pricey due to weight (we're looking at around $25-ish shipping price).

This package includes
- Playstation 3 backwards compatible system, with upgraded 160Gb Hard Drive, 4 USB ports, and slots for SD card (taken out on later models).
- Power Cable
- HDMI Cable
- Audio/Video Cable
- no controller

Condition:

This system works, and I've just been playing FFXIII with it this week.

The Playstation 3 has scratches on the top, but you can probably take it out with some wipes of a scratch remover.

PLEASE READ:

This is a demo unit that requires you to enter a code in the security settings to access some features. I'll give you the code on purchase, though this info is widely available with a simple google search. However, because this is a demo unit, you cannot access online features such as Playstation Store.

Oh and PayPal payments only.
Let me know if you have any questions - probably post in this thread. Of course PM me if you want to share your address for a shipping price quote.

Enjoy!

EDIT:

Updated info about online functionality - turns out that despite being able to register and log in to PSN, you can't access the store even if you enter the demo unlock code, and I got no online multiplayer games to test online gaming. Still pretty damn cheap for a backwards compatible console.

Also, removed the controller, and instead am sending you an HDMI cable.

EDIT 2:

Now with photos!

The scratch should be visible here:


Here's the picture showing the card slots and usb ports removed from later models:

FFFFFF. I -really- want to get this, but I doubt my parents would let me until I sell off my 360(which I plan to do really soon). That price and addons are so tempting, though. D:

Aren't BC PS3s going for 600+ on ebay?

Still a good deal for anyone looking for a PS3. could also use it for CFW if it doesn't have the newest firmware.

Last I checked, it was $350 to $400+ for the BC models.
I'm selling this cheap because of the scratch on top, and the lack of controllers (I edited and took them out the item description).
Also, Demo models are quite cheap since you can't access the online functionalities. It is, however, perfect to those who don't care about online and just wants an offline gaming console + blu-ray player.
