Call me whatever, but it's ridiculous that these are going for over $2000. I work part time at a retail store, and I saw these guys in our line that probably don't even know how to spell playstation 3. A good half of the people in our line are probably going to sell their PS3s, I didn't ask, but after acouple years in retail I am a pretty good judge of character.

Just copy and paste, ebay doesn't allow links in guides. The above link is a wholesaler that will sell you the japanese version of the PS3, it will play American Games (PS3 games only, not older games) and American BluRay discs.

The prices are for the 20 GB - $949.00

60 GB - $1249.00

You just have to sign up for their dropship service, which you can cancel after getting your PS3.

I am not sure how many they have. I will not guarantee anything.
