Post: Keep or Sell?
11-13-2012, 08:48 PM #1
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I'm still debating whether i should keep or sell my 80GB Backwards Compatible PS3, under 3.55OFW.
I still have no solution to fix it & it's been sitting in dust for 4yrs or so. It makes me sad knowing this.
I want it to be worth it though CFW or the $$$.. idk
If by some miracle i get it fixed & this CFW Permaban is lifted, free lobbys for everyone for as long as it lasts again!! As i'd be that happy, lol.
What's your take on it?

Depends, I might you never now how long it might take to fix it. Might as well just sell it now, and get the cash from the right buyer.

That's what I am wondering.

If what he is looking to do is just play games offline, then keep it. If he wants to go online and doesn't feel like pirating games: sell it.

If the system is in working condition.. I see them going for 200-350 dollars on craigslist simply because they are rare.

Depending on what needs to be fixed on it, I would install custom firmware and sell it. You can make a lot of money if it is backwards compatible. If you do decide to save it, start a youtube channel and host some modded lobbies. Get somewhere doing that.

My take is that you should sell up. You had this console for a long time and like you say its gathering dust so sell it. If you can get it to host then please do but simple answer- Sell it if you cant host/ DONT sell if you can host agian.
