Yeah, check the serial on the case ( marked e.g Serial: xxxxxxx ) just under where the model # is, and then check on the underside of the box your PS2 came in and next to the barcode is a little sticker, with two bar codes on. The serial should repeat underneath the second barcode. It may look like e.g. S01-xxxxxxx-N

If the numbers don't match up, your PS2 has been swapped.

That's true for UK consoles anyway, I don't know about US...

I've seen this happen before. Not all installers are honest. This is why you should do a little research before sending your console to anyone.

Thanx for the help guys the serial is the same so it is all cool maybe they just dont look after peoples things I know I wont be going there anymore I would rather my ps2 take a couple of days to get modded and kept scratch free then 3 hrs and scratched the hell out of :/. Looks like if you want something done you gotta do it yourself pity you cant trust people these days

sorry to post again but I just tried to play online with syphon filter and hardware online arena and it comes up with error (-402) which is
"(-402) sceDNAS2_SS_INVALID_MEDIA
No test disc, or problems reading test disc."

What does that actually mean and how can I fix it ??
