Bargain of the Century : 120Gb PS3 Slim for Just R2299 Flame On

Bargain of the Century : 120Gb PS3 Slim for Just R2299 Ps3SlimBargain   Lazygamer

If you’ve been slow to migrate from your old, dusty PS2 to the next generation, now might be the perfect opportunity. Select Pick ‘n Pay retailers nationally are practically giving away Sony’s HD console.

Well below the RRP, they’re selling 120GB PS3’s for an astonishing R2299.00 – a saving of R1500 on the regular price. This makes it undoubtedly the most attractively priced, full featured HD console available in the country at the moment. Word is stock is very limited, so get yourself to your nearest Pick ‘n Pay as soon as possible to avoid missing out on this.

There’s pretty much no reason not to get a PS3 now…unless you’re a silly deluded fanboy, of course. In case you didn’t know,  it only does everything.

    Who thinks it’s a good idea for me to go buy another PS3 just to sell it at a higher price?

        I’d go buy another one now, just to use as a secondary media centre.

                    My laptop’s motherboard died a few weeks ago. It’s gonna take just over R5000 to fix. Now I’m thinking of just buying an el-cheapo laptop and using the rest of the money for a PS3 as well.

                    Heavy Rain. I must have it.

                                  if this was an old 60GB BC one, i’d get it in a heart beat. Luckily i found a guy on Gumtree selling his PS3 60Gb for R2400

                                          was it on a leaflet or national newspaper?

                                              I reckon the 2 was supposed to be a 3. Maybe they printed the incorrect price and now have to honour it?

                                                        Epic bargain. Was considering getting a second console at that price.

                                                            PNP in Durban North is out of stock

                                                            really don’t know why they decided to land this price on a Thursday. It’s definately a destination driver to get feet in store so you would think they’d do it over the weekend when people have time to spend doing some shopping.

                                                            Guys will literally skip work buy the thing today and head back they won’t be hanging around

                                                            oh well at least PnP know this price point works to push volume so maybe we’ll see it again.

                                                            Btw have heard from a reliable source that game have been honouring their “will beat any price” but you have to present a copy of the broadsheet showing the PnP special

                                                                                                            I am selling a practically brand spanking new LCD, with warranty.

                                                                                                            Sony Bravia KLV-32T550 LCD TV. 2x HDMI Ports, Bravia Engine 3 Technology, in box with all manuals and so forth. It’s been turned on about 4 times dudes. The reason I am seeling it is because I won another TV at the same time so I no longer need this one.

                                                                                                            Interested? Drop me a mail: viatyr@gmail.com
