I've got an old PS2 and want to sell it, nothing special, no box/instructions/games any ideas on the best place to do this? We have a game and a gamestation but have no idea if they buy them or how much I'm likely to get or if cash convertors is worth a try, anybody done this before and can advise? thanks, michelle

I would suggest advertising in your local paper or on Ebay. You will not get much for it from Game or Cash converters.0

Gamestation only charge £54.99 for a used PS2 and that includes 2 games so I would guess they only pay about £20 for the console.0

Ebay's probably your best bet, if you're careful. I guess it depends how much you want for it, and how fast/risk free you want it.
Cash Converters = risk free, no hassle, but you won't get much for it.
Ebay = potential risk, potential hassle, but you'll get more for it.They say it's genetic, they say he can't help it, they say you can catch it - but sometimes you're born with it0 -
Hi Chocdonuty,
Seriously. Asda flog new PS2 for less than £50 every few months,
is it really worth selling? Give it to the kids next door or put it on the
For Sale board at your local supermarket for a tenner if you must.
The new version PS2 comes out shortly which will make yours
worth about a fiver, then.

Re. the OP, I'd suggest ebay or maybe a car boot sale.

Hi Bingo Bango,
It's Sony.
And yes they still make PS2 - this is version 2 of the model. My brother bought
his daughter a new one this last Xmas.
Version 3 of the PS2 comes out shortly.
And they still sell PS3, too.

Interesting news you have Frank, were did you get the info from that Sony are producing a new version of PS2? What are its capabilities ? I find this hard to believe quite frankly.!You live..You learn.:)0

Why is it hard to believe? The PS2 is still outselling the PS3 in many markets, not sure about the UK, so if they can make a new version that is cheaper they're onto a winner.
Sales Figures from the US for example.
Details of new PS2It's my problem, it's my problem
If I feel the need to hide
And it's my problem if I have no friends
And feel I want to die0
