Post: PS3 - 80GB - Doesn't Read Disks - Pre-3.55 Firmware
07-16-2011, 04:24 AM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); - It's fat.
- It's backward-compatible.
- It has 4 USB plug-ins.
- It has the little flip-up thing above the USB ports.
- I got it for Christmas in 2007.
- It stopped reading disks in the beginning of 2010. The firmware is before 3.55.

I bought a Blu-Ray drive for it but it didn't work. I can sell the Blu-Ray drive that I bought too. I think the PS3 burnt the Blu-Ray drive up but I'm not sure.

I'm looking to get enough to buy the new college football game and have enough to get Madden next month.

Im in us.. Los angeles to be exact... Well 120$ is pretty expensive considering the blue ray is jacked up.. Im willing to go 60$. With shipping included.

Can you do $75 and shipping if I include the Blu-Ray drive I bought? You might be able to get it to work. How much is shipping anyways?

The blue ray drive is too much hassle to install... and probably will get burned right away... I can probably go 63$.. with shipping.. Shipping is 10.50$ according to USPS.

Lets run it. I've never shipped anything so I need help. I go to a place and give it to them, and tell them you're gonna pay shipping? How does that work?

I'm in 30281. I'm not gonna do UPS or whatever, I'm gonna do some other place near my house. Do they all charge the same you think? Can I send it in the PS3 box or does it have to be something else?

I send half the payment now, and half when I receive the item. Tell me when ready.

I'm gonna ship it when I get home, which will be tomorrow or Monday. I can't do half now and half later, sorry.

I'm not gonna scam you. This thing is broke, I have no use for it. I'm trying to get something out of it. If I was gonna scam I would say it's a working one and ask for more. I can let you hold my vBux or something. I have a risk of being scammed too.

Can i use this to put new patches on ps3?

I don't know. I think you can only upgrade, not downgrade the patches and it's before 3.55. I thought my case for me not scamming you was pretty good. If I was planning to scam I would scam something big, not a broken PS3.
