 Am I allowed to also ask ps3 related questions ? I also have one that I would like to sell but I am not sure how much it worths.

 It is jailbroken or whatever thats called.
 It is early ones the fat case
 It is not been updated since 2011-12 I am not sure the update version right now.
 I won't pay shipping , I live in Istanbul,Turkey.

 How much should I sell this for? Is it even worth buying , Can I clear like 50$ for this ? Cheesy
Any questions or concerns may be posted to this thread IF it is about my system but to people who wish to post things like...

Just got my PS4 today, what's the best game out at the moment?

Need to go make their own post. Since your reply seems o be a joke I am fine with it for now, but people who don't have any thing to ask abou my system should please go and post in their own thread.

Movin' on up.
What? No. GameStop and most other retailers that offer console trade-ins usually only take 20% of the value of a USED system. Meaning, whatever you can buy a used one for, they'll pay you 20% of that amount.

I would save it and use it to trade in, if you want a ps4 or whatever the new xbox is called.
I know in the past alot of stores have had reasonably good deals to trade in your old system for a discount on a new one.. usually the discount is better than if you sold it privately, which is quite surprising...

Im pretty sure you can use an e3 flasher on certain fat models to downgrade the firmware. You can do more research on the ps3hax forums.

I have an original early model of the PS3 that is fully backwards compatible with PS1 & PS2 games. Even though yes the PS4 did just come out. I do know for a fact that my PS3 still has great value. So I am curious what it might be worth to some of you if I were to sell it for BTC.

Contents / items included in this query...

1) 1 x Original MGS4 box, game no included.
2) 1 x HDMI Gold Cable
3) 1 x BlueRay Remote missing a battery cover, still works.
4) 1 x Power Cable
5) 1 x 80gb System.
6) 1 x Two Controller charger that also has two USB slots to allow for the simaltaneous charging of up to four controllers.
7) 2 x Dualshock 3 controllers, one functiong while the other just needs a battery.
-7a) Consider it to be one working controller for righ now until the other one that just needs a batery is found.

Also not too sure on how a deal like this would work if I did sell it for BTC since trust has to go both ways and start with someone.

What firmware version is it running?

I might be interested
W/e the current one is, I always keep it updaed but I never pay attention to revisions.

O well nevermind, the reason I'm asking, and probably why other's have and will ask, is that firmware 3.55 and below allowed you to install linux on the ps3.

When people say " Old " ps3's are worth more, that's what they're referring to.

A ps3 fat that has been updated is probably worth 80$ or less
Well, it's possible I might still be on that... I'll power it up and check.

Will edit this reply so keep an eye on it.

Edit: Looks like it's on 4.5, if I could I'd downgrade.

I'll do some research into downgrading tomorrow and get back to you.

No games, just old hardware. That ain't worth much at all dude. Sorry.
Maybe not to you but the system has value.

That's not too bad then. I'd still set this up as an auction rather than simply asking for offers, though. Start at something low and work up. You'll get what people think it's worth in the end. Worse comes to worse, you can always try it on eBay, though I can see why BTC may be more tempting.
Normally I would try and sell it on eBay but I was hoping to maybe get some BTC to try and invest in more equipment after I get to a certain amoun.

Also, what do you man by "as an auction" in terms of this forum ?

Unless I missed somehin here which is possible, I didn't see an auction section. Even if there is one, how would it work in terms of not selling it if the price in the end isn't to my taste ?

You haven't mentioned what year it is from?
Whatever year the MGS4 bundle was released, I'm the original owner bought from BestBuy.
