Default Where can I buy a 60GB PS3?

I have been looking around with a friend for the 60GB version of the PS3, and have yet to find one in stock anywhere. Does anyone know where I can get my hand on one? Thanks.

Well my main concern is the backwards compatibility with PSOne and PS2 games, any good deals floating around the web for a 80 gig version?

This is why I'm glad I bought my 60 when they announced they'd be dropping it. Check your local stores. I saw one at Target a few weeks ago.

i think the only one they make now is the 40gb until they release a new SKU. your best bet is ebay or craigs list for a used one.

You could try Gamestop, Game Crazy, or whatever your local game store is for a used one.

QFT. I bought my 60GB PS3 from Gamestop for 469.00. They're now at 449.00. Good luck finding one that won't go bork on you though. I've gone through 4 in the past year.

Meh....just buy a 20gig one. Then buy a 80gb+ 2.5" lappy hard drive at newegg for much cheaper than trying to find a actual 80gb model.

I got myself an 80Gig one for $210 from AAFEES. If you've got a member of your family that's in the Military, they were listed for $310 on AAFEES like 6 months ago. They might still have one available but I'll have to get my dad to check as I'm now over the age limit so I don't have my own login anymore to check and see if the price was still the same. If you want, wait until BestBuy has another deal where you get a 40inch 1080p LCD TV, an 80GB PS3, some bluray movies, a game or two, and all for the price of the TV. Not a bad deal considering if you don't want the TV you can sell it for about the same as you would have paid for it and them everything else would be free for you.
