What to do with used Playstation and accesories?
Well now that I'm got my PS2 I'm doing some consolidating. I've already sold off a good chunk of my unwanted PS1 games(on half.com) but I'm not sure what to do with the console itself(it's the classic design circa 1998), memory card(I consolidated all my ps1 saves onto 1 of my 2 memory cards) and extra dual shock controller. Any ideas? If I could get like $30-40 at a place like Funcoland I would do that just for ease. Anyone know what Funco gives for 1 PS, 1 memory card, and a dual shock? Thanks for any info or other suggestions!

Honestly, since it's the christmas season, I recommend sending it to someone you know that doesn't have a game system at all, or at least not a Playstation. I'm sending my old chipped PS1 (now that my PS2 is chipped) to my old fraternity. It's old enough no one will rip it off, but new enough they'll enjoy having it.

Suspended; also need updated email
i'd also favour selling/giving to someone who will appreciate it
i sold mine (with 2 dualshock controllers, memory card , chipped with 150 games ! (um yes all from asia but they all work!) ) very cheaply to this guy at work with three kids. I know the family is struggling a bit so i was happy to sell it to him on the very cheap. His kids are cool, not spoiled at all and they all love it ! they are running amuck with all the games so i'm happy it went to a good home

Thanks for the suggestions all. I don't have any younger siblings and the only younger relatives I have live in CA so giving it to them wouldn't be too feasable. I think I'm gonna end up trying to sell it on ebay or trading it in somewhere.

How much are you selling it for (including shipping)? If it is a good deal, I may take it off your hands.
Or, check my post at http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthr...hreadid=165296 and maybe we can work out a trade deal.
Thanks.

I would also take it off your hands if the price was right. My kids crunched their PS and I am not buying them a new one. Used though...
Decide how much you expect and we can deal.
Cheers
