MY 80GB 2USB PS3
I got this PS3 for free because of the disc drive is missing therefore i take the top and put a ps1 or ps3 game over the spinner and the laser then put tape up top of the cd to keep it from popping off and scratching my cds and then it works but it worth getting for free but i would be happy to replace the disc drive for it and it be back working again
but it sucks without PS2 BC i like the 80gb 4usb better..

Broke within 2 weeks
I bought it on June 27th, and it is now July 13.... It will not start and I cannot eject the disc from the PS3 either. Luckily it still falls under warrenty so I will be getting a new one, but i lost all my saved game data. I would NOT reccomend getting a used PS3 from here again.

Worth Every Penny
Refurbished means brand new, only there is a minor thing not the same. My refurbished PlayStation 3 just doesn't have "PlayStation 3" written on the top. This is the exact same as a brand new console and was worth every penny. I love GameStop.

Refurbished=Terribleness
So I'm extra excited to try my PS3 when it finally arrives. I play for maybe 45 minutes and turn it off and return a couple hours later to find the red light blinking mysteriously. I then found out that I have YLOD. When I bought this system I read the reviews of how refurbished game systems tend to basically suck and they are 100% right only I didn't listen. So the next buyer of this product, you were warned.

"Refurbished" only means re-packaged.
BUY THE WARRANTY if you'd rather save a couple bucks buying this loud fog horn of a system than just buying a new one. These units are not refurbished. Unless you consider popping in a game for 5 minutes and calling it good. I tried going the cheaper route and bought a used unit, big mistake. It's not a matter of if, but when the YLOD will haunt you. I got it after 6 months, and believe me you will to. Since I didn't buy the warranty, the $249 I spent approx after taxes was wasted for 6 months of enjoyment. The only saving grace was selling the YOLD unit on ebay. If this still doesn't change your mind, educate yourself about the reballing of gpu's, because thats what will need to be done once the unit bites the dust.

Never Buy A Refurb
3 weeks after ordering my refurb'd PS3 from Gamestop it finally arrived! ...Only they sent me the wrong model. So, I sent it back and another 4 weeks go by before I finally get it back, luckily they send the correct one the second time. I have had the PS3 for a grand total of 2 months now. Played it maybe 6 times in those 2 months. It is in a well ventilated area, with nothing obstructing it at all, and yet it has already given me the YLOD. Clearly Gamestop is not competent at "refurbishing" systems if the most they can do is make it playable for 2 months before it dies again.

One of my favorite consoles! A good buy!
So I got this for christmas 5 years ago. After about 4 years a charger to my headset yanked out one of the usbs. Its not a huge problem but it can be annoying. Then about 2 weeks ago I decided I wanted to play some BF3 and I went to insert it to find that it wont take in the disc. After a little searching on youtube/google I had one of 2 choices. First pay $100 to get it repaired or option 2 try to open up the console and try to fix it on my own. I didnt feel like paying $100 so I went with option two, it worked for 5 minutes then same problem. So I decided I wanted to try an xbox 360 and get that. So bottom line I would suggest ps3 to anyone it will last a long time with no problems.

It is a good system.
This system is one of the best consoles out there. the internet access is the best on play station. I recommend it to everyone.
