Hi all

Well, the HSC is nearly here and nearly over which means PS3!!! I am looking into where to buy it and wondering if you guys have had good/bad experiences with any particular stores

I live in Sydney, and my closest shopping centre is Hornsby, so i have looked at EB, JB-HiFi, Myer, David Jones...

Thats about it, from what i can work out, JB is probably the cheapest and EB is quite expensive (for games anyway)

Open to opinions

Hey, Timmay. And welcome to MyPS3.
I got my PS3 on eBay. Brand new, 60bg, PAL, all for $710 including postage.
But you have to be careful when buying on eBay (but everyone knows that).

JB are better than EB most of the time... but EB sells more stuff, so it evens out.

Ebay all the way, the prices are around half the price in stores & ive never had one item not arrive & ive been using ebay for over 5 years. I try to buy off aussie sellers if possible but also never had any issues with sellers overseas. If your not gonna use ebay then I would go JB Hi-Fi.
