PS2 Question

Hi All,

What is the least expensive way to get PS2? I know in NH they do not charge tax. I'm currently in VT so I can drive to NH to purchase a system there.

Are they any current discounts or anything else out there? I'm at least looking to get the system and needed accessories for the system. I can probably get the games online from various stores.

Thanks

Anj

There are rumors of a PS2 price drop (to $199) when X-Box and Gamecube come out. If you can wait until then, I'd recommend it.

Those rumors have been debunked.

I bought my PS2 off EBay with 2 games, memory card, and extra controller for 300 bucks. Not a bad deal.

no price drop in north america so either buy a used one or just keep an eye out for a coupon online or just drive to NH and buy it with no tax.

Using the buy.com coupons was a good deal.. but the stopped giving coupons.... The 20%off flooz using amex was a great way, and helped with my purchase, but we all know flooz is in DotCom Hell now....

I was at Sam's Club today and they had the bundle pack with the PS2, controller, and Gran Turismo 3 for right around $300. Pretty good deal if you like racing games, and 3 is really good. If not, then you'd be better off buying the PS2 seperate.
