well,Killersup finally wants to get a ps3,he is having some trouble though. At first Killersup wanted the 80 GB one because it had backwards compatibility,but most of the games Killersup wants are for the ps3.So not that huge of a problem.

The real problem Killersup has is that he found a play station 3 fatty for 97$.....should he trust the people? That seems really cheap,but Killersup read the reviews and they were all really good!Then if Killersup shouldn't buy that one,should he buy a referbished for 100$ cheaper? Killersup doesn't wanna save up 300$ because he only makes about 20$ a week at his job.....what should he do?

I never buy anything that is second hand just incase something does go wrong and it doesn't have a warranty but most people I know buy stuff that is preowned and never seem to have problems so it's up to you I personally wouldn't but everyone has different opinions.

Who exactly? Weird people online or in a chain store? Also do they give a warranty?

I agree with you as you never know if what you buy will malfunction or anything. I usually buy new products but if it seems in good condition and there's a warranty I'll buy it. But like Gamer_Cale said, its really up to you.

Web-of-Trust gives that site a very poor reputation on these three important caterogies: Trustworthiness, vendor reliability, and privacy.

If you plan on buying things online I'd only do it from sites like Walmart, GameStop, and Amazon.

People rate the site. Based on their experiences I guess. Link to image.

When it comes to electric good I ALWAYS buy it brand new from a known and trusty retailer because its an electronic item, it's going to crap out on me at some point and I'd like the option of having it fixed that come with the warranty.

At the end of the day it's down to your personal preferences.

Happy gaming!!!

Amazon. Bloody everything there. Unless you're abroad. Then they have most things.
