Thinking of selling old Ps2 to buy new one, help please

Hi I have a Ps2 that I bought on release day so its a version 1, its a scph 30001 model U1 with 10 screws at the base, so what I wanted to do is get a new Ps2 so I can install a modchip to it and play backups since I have a Dvd+r and my Ps2 doesnt read those. Where should I sell mine and how much ( the front part of the cd tray its a bit loose because of the gameshark swap trick ) ? And where should I buy one, if I can get one modded then much better that can play Dvd+r backups as well. Thanks for any reply.

Well on Ebay you really cant set the price. Itll go on what people wish to bid on it. Usually ps2's sell for just under what they cost brand new.

Id suggest cleaning it up and not mentioning anything about what version it is.

Starting bid

What I meant at what starting price should I put it and if I should put a Buy it now option and if so what price? And if I should mention that I bought it on release or just write that its old and I don't use it anymore but it still works great? Thanks.

You can start off at any price. $1 tends to get people to look at your auction more often. As for Buy It Now pricing, I would do a search for PS2 consoles and watch the next one being sold. Wait till it ends then make your Buy It Now price a dollar or two under that.

Where can I get the new one?

And where can I get a new Ps2 and what modchip do you recommend if I want to play imports and backups? Or where can I get a modded Ps2? which of the two is cheaper to get a new one without a modchip or modded? Thanks.

Come on man, I cant continue to hold your hand.



As for the rest of your questions, just do a quick search.

Ichiri,

I think it's a safe bet, if you are intending on buying the latest version PS2 with a mod chip fitted it will cost more than one without a mod chip.

As for the other questions, as Tyler said, just use the search button at the top of the forum, type in a couple of choice words, for example "new PS2" and see what results you get. The answers will be somewhere in this forum.

Personally I would find somewhere local to buy a new PS2, then search out someone to fit a mod chip for you.

You won't get anything as it doesn't accept anything under 4 characters long, so useful phrases such as:

PS2
Mod
DVD
CD

etc... don't work. It's a god annoying 'feature'...

What place does ship to Puerto Rico?

I checked norcalmods.com but this is wha it says on the shipping "Sorry we will only ship to the continental United States so this means only people in the continental United States should consider this service." The problem is that I live in Puerto Rico , do you know any place that ships to here if I send to mod the Ps2? Thanks.
