What's the best store to buy a Playstation 2 from?

Postby Mister Frodo » Fri Jun 20, 2008 2:32 pm

The title kind of says it all. I've decided that this summer I'm going to buy a Playstation 2, and with the rate I'm currently working, I should have enough money to buy one by the end of June. So I was wondering, what store should I buy it from? I was considering GameStop, but I don't know if there's a store that would be better, or if it's really just a matter of personal preference.

Any Best Buy or Wal-Mart will have them.

Although if you want the shiny silver one, they have it at amazon.com

I got mine from Walmart, (it is the original version, wouldn't mind a slim version but am planning to get a PS3 instead).

Toysrus is also another good place to do video game shopping, happy hunting Mister Frodo.
Some of my favorite scriptures.

Psalm91
A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

Hebrews 4-4
1Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.
2For unto us was the gospel preached, as well as unto them: but the word preached did not profit them, not being mixed with faith in them that heard it.
3For we which have believed do enter into rest, as he said, As I have sworn in my wrath, if they shall enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world.
4For he spake in a certain place of the seventh day on this wise, And God did rest the seventh day from all his works.



James 4
Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you. Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Grieve, mourn and wail. Change your laughter to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will lift you up.



Revelation 22:14
Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

I'm pretty sure that if you have a paying job you won't need to care where you buy your PS, but I xould suggest EB or gamestop. Those are always useful.

Unless you get one used, most places will probably be the same amount. If you're lacking on funds or simply want to save money for games, I would suggest getting a used or refurbished one from Gamestop, but only if you aren't willing to spend the extra money. My brother got a refurbished GBA SP from gamestop and it didn't work. My mom just ended up getting him a new(not used) one(in Gamestop's defense though, they did send back the game I accidentally left in there when we sent the SP back), but I digress. If you can get it online, I would suggest that to avoid a hefty sales tax.
