40GB Playstation 3.

Turns on fine, unfortunately cannot read discs anymore; I assume it's a dirty/broken laser.
Has never been opened for repair, purcased Late 07/Early 08. Exterior in great condition.

Laser replacement costs that fit the PS3 are going for $100-$150 on trademe.

Great deal if you know how to fix it yourself.

Comes with:

40GB PS3 Console

1 X Six axis Sony Controller with charging cord.

1x Av cable

1x Power Cable

I'm wanting $140 ONO

Pick-ups only from Waikato.

Leave a message here, as I don't look at my Private messages enough.

2 year old laser. should be covered under the CGA. Retailer should fix it for free.

Do whatever you want to do man.

Cambridge, although I'd like the money a little sooner sorry, just to give my parents some funds for getting
me a new one. :-)

Yeah, I realise that, not too bothered though. Would rather have a new one as there would be no hassle with
future break downs.

I will give you $130 for it and will pay immediately. I would need you to put it in some sort of box though so I can get a courier to collect.

Actually you can get a laser for about $80 NZ delivered from overseas, this is why I purchased it :-)

Haven't purchased one yet but a friend got one from a seller and hasn't had any issues at all.

I've got the PS3, haven't opened the box yet though and probably won't bother until after the new year. I will open up the PS3 and get the numbers off the laser and order from there.
