Have you tried Facebook? You may have some luck there, or (of course) TM, but the price is likely to be higher. People may also be happy to ship.

But, generally, if you're only interested in/able to exchange goods rather than pay cold hard cash your options will inevitably be much more limited. (Personally, I can't think of once having seen a 'swap' offer I'd be interested in engaging in.)

Please also think about using some basic punctuation (like capital letters and full stops) in your posts - it's so much more difficult to read like this.

i looked on facebook market place and the 10 groups im a member of and most where sold or people wanted really high prices like $200

i do want to pay cash but thought somebody might be interested in a trade or trade and some cash you never know ive done a lot of trades in the past

i have bought a refurbished xbox 360 slim from them and they sent wrong model and it was dirty also bad a chemical smell it started to make me feel a little dizzy had to put it out in my garage then i sent it back for a refund

also brought a refurbished wii off them and the shell had a crack on one side also the sensor bar was broken in half from shipping sent back and got a refund

so i don't want to buy off them again and i was hoping to spend less then $100

I actually have an old fat PS3 and live nearby.

However, I had a EZ Chill fan controller installed.

https://www.amazon.com/Chill-PS3-BEST-Cooling-Fan-Controller/dp/B00P0LI0ZG/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_product_top?ie=UTF8

This means that the Fan is LOUD. It can be tuned down but you will need to open the case to switch to a lower setting.

It's running a custom firmware of some sort with some ROM files.
