Do you trust a used Playstation 3 from gamestop

Right now they have used 40GB for $230 and used 80GB (4 USB ports) for $280. I really want a PS3 with BC but I don't know if it is safe to get a used system from gamestop. Any thoughts or past experiences?

i wouldn't. Not a used PS3. used systems are weird.

I bought a 60 gig, and it died after like 3-4 months, so I say NO!

No, used games, yes.

My friend got a 80GB (4-Port) a couple of months ago and it works fine.

I'd trust a backstabbing long-time enemy more than a used ps3 from gamestop.

I have never bought systems from them..and never used..so dunno..but ppl here seem to have a good point

Seeing how Gamestops rigorous testing lab simply puts a disc in it to see if runs and if it does it qualifies as a passing grade, I'd say no way in hell.

i would not do it at all...what gamestop does is they will buy back broken systems and send them back to get fixed however we all know the great job companies do with fixing systems...esepcially with 360s. I would save up for a new one because u will get more out of a new system then a used one any time

No do not! i say this because my 60gig had a artifacts problem and they took it.. They turned it on and put in a game and when it launched they turned it off and gave me my money..

Would't trust the used one

My friend bought a used 40GB model from Gamestop about 4 months ago and it works fine and he's left it on all day at times. I bought a used Gamecube from them 3 years ago and it works fine also but I also don't play it alot either. That being said I'd just save up for a new one. The price isn't that much different between used 80gb and a new 120gb slim model.

I would also say no, its a roll of the dice and for a little extra for buying new you're getting a guarantee.

I don't trust a used anything from anyone.

the new 120gb slim ps3 is $299, why would you even consider a used 60gb for $280?

no its hard to find one with bc, just get a new slim and play ps3 games on it, and get a used ps2 for like 50 bucks, or play ur current ps2

I think it depends on how much warranty they are offering. I'm in the UK and recently bought a used Xbox 360 bundle from Game with a two year warranty thst is the same level of warranty as if it were new!

I bought a referb 40GB from GameStop and I have had 0 problems with it.

just so you know 40 gigdoesnt have bc

I Would buy A used System But Not From there.

If its scratched its obviously a Sign that theres a possbility that Something Could Happen to it In the Near Future.

If its Nice and Shiny, then Buy It.

But Even if it messes up, You Can still Return It. Or just get a 3 Year Warranty.

Hell no ill never buy a used system. Unless its considerably cheaper in comparison to a new one atleast 80 percent cheaper then retail price.

$20 bucks more, and you get a 120G PS3 slim....if you want BC, get a PS2 online for like 50 bucks ! better that way

Nope never...

Wouldn't trust one new.LiftedHeadshot

No ive bought new games from gamestop that didnt work lol

I don't trust anything used; Although it wasn't until this generation that I started buying used games simply because Blu-Ray discs are impossible to scratch. Plus it's cheaper and if I don't like the game I have 7 days to return it for a full refund. ;)

I'll buy a used Wii but never a PS3 or X360. :|

I never buy any electronics used unless the price is extremely cheap.

I wouldn't buy ANYTHING from GameStop. Ever.

i dont trust any used system

I only go to gamestop when i get gift cards. Otherwise i avoid them at all costs.
