I bought some of this a few weeks ago from car wash n wax.

Was going to get a PS3 from ebay. But i went to Virgin Megastores and for £380 i got a new PS3 with F1 game.
Also got the hdmi lead and sixas controller for £40
so i was pretty pleased with all that!
Must say with the HD LCD tv, F1 is just amazing. Doing all the testing, warm up laps...
Has anyone bought a PS3 from ebay, and is happy with the product and delivery etc?
If so please post the name of the ebay user so i can too purchase one.
£350 cant be sniffed at!
If i was to buy a PS3 in the states would this work in the UK?
Pal NTSC have anything to do with it?
What about the blu ray discs and the games?
Just a thought as it comes out at £300 with the dollar being so weak at the moment!
