Best place to buy a cheap PS2?

I've been looking through eBay and Amazon for cheap PS2 consoles and their prices range right up into the hundreds. :S Are there any other websites I can get one cheap?

Obviously you didn't look for very long; I almost never see PS2 console on their own sell for over $50. You can even get a new PS2 for under a hundred bucks still if you look hard enough.

I got a PS2 Slim for $44, albeit with no video cables and controller on eBay. Then I got a wireless PS2 controller from China that works great for $10 and component cables for $5 through eBay as well. Bottom line, eBay works and is the best way to piece together a system on the cheap or get a bundle for a bargain price.

You must be searching for a new old stock unit I assume as I picked up a Slim with controller and connections on eBay a few weeks back for $35

If you want it new then buy RIGHT NOW. You'll have to pay more than $100 but since the news of production stopping, all new PS2's have gone up in price by about 30%. Because it's such a popular console, i don't see them coming back down again as the number of new systems available lessens.

Buying used is a bit of a minefield as there's no way of telling if you're getting a lightly-used system or something with a laser on its last legs. But good luck!
