    they're in stock here if anyone wants one :)
    These are also in stock at Dixons - they are the new slimline models and it is actually a great price!

    As well as the slimline PS2 you also get a Universal wheel, DVD Remote and 2 control pads....great bundle for £150 in my opinion.

    Josh :D

    How very interesting.
    This morning I ordered a PS2 from Curry's for £104.99. Now they have changed their website and the only console they have comes in a bundle with an "essentials" pack at £149.99.
    It seems the retailers have decided to use the shortage to bundle up their rubbish they want to get rid of and get a bit more money at the same time.
    Similar story at PC World - the package with GTA and two other games at £129.99 is not in stock, but the Package with the "Essentials" is in stock at £149.99.
    What a disgraceful bunch of money-grabbers they are!
    You don't get medals for sitting in the trenches.
