Worth just mentioning that it's a Euro console and you'll need a 3 pin plug adaptor.

would have been perfect with the 20% off a few days ago :sunglasses:

You just never know what people might know unless you ask questions, the circle of life :stuck_out_tongue:

Either use a fused conversion plug, cut the plug off and fit a UK one, or buy a lead with a UK plug fitted already. Don't use the cheap supermarket plug adapters, they are meant for temporary use only.

why is the new model better?

I don't see how so many people struggle to understand. The PS4 has an internal power supply and the cable is a standard AC power cable with a C7 connector (also known as figure-8 ) on the end. ANY C7 power lead from any device will work with the PS4, it is an IEC standardised connector, this includes the one provided with the PS3. The PS4 is NEVER going to use more than 700W (plus the C7 connector is only rated to 2.5A) so the plug should have a 3A fuse.

DON'T use the cheap supermarket travel adapters, they are designed for INFREQUENT use only, not permanent. You can buy a C7 power lead with a UK plug for a couple of quid if you really don't have any others at home already. The ONLY type of plug converter which is suitable for long term use is the type like this: https://www.stagedepot.co.uk/essentials/power-adapters/schuko/schuko-uk-converter-plug-fused-bsi-approved but you can buy a lead with a UK plug for the same money so why bother?

Mine has been delivered today

​does look like he has stopped selling for the time being. Op can you please end the deal

FYI "This seller is currently away until 09 Nov, 2015, and isn't processing orders at this time."

Very quick delivery. Got a dispatched email today

Good deal I'm waiting tho see what Black Friday brings

any idea how long shipping will take?

Got ya - good one, very punny
I ordered one a while back but why do you need to buy a figure 8 power cord, I only bought a 2 pin to 3 pin power adaptor
I'm a bit confused

Just a miscommunication I think (crossed wires if you excuse the pun)!

When I said power adapter I meant the figure 8 power cord. I shouldn't need anything else on top of that surely?

You did the right thing. I also bought the same for 2.99

Yes you can use any figure 8 power cord but for a uk adaptor you will need a 2 pin to 3 pin as I said
Sorry if I've misunderstood

Hey mate, then how come everybody's saying you can use PS1/PS2/Ps3 Cables?

Or this HUKD

That's what i bought isn't it ?

Cheers, just bought this, along with a power adapter for the UK

£3.50 from Ebay:smiley:

Dazzy you got my pulse to jump a bit. Glad they confirm, planning to sell second controller to recoup some of the £££.

Don't worry guys. It does come with extra controller. It was a mistake on their part

no extra controller is a deal killer

hot if indeed is the new model and indeed comes with the extra controller :smiley:

Got a bit confusing email from the seller

[img][/img]

ps4 or xbox 1

confused now , is this the new model CUH-1216A? this is what the seller have for sale.

Price is good but storage space is low, so, it's okay for people who want a PS4 asap though not ideal. Still, 1TB HDD is very affordable nowadays.

Thats just bad luck..... people who buy this will see even better deals over the next 3 weeks with Black November deals coming through, the longer you wait the cheaper/better deal you get, its not rocket science, every console goes down in price with time, When PS5 comes out PS4 will be available for £100....Its just a case of how long you are prepared to wait
Im a skinflint, so holding on a little longer although must admit very nearly went for this one

The only problem is that I bought the old model with 1 controller a few weeks back but now the seller updated his product to this which I'm a bit annoyed about

Thanks!

Couldn't resist any more. Will post information when it arrives

For anyone who has doubts about the warranty
[img][/img]

Sony do cover without receipt. Brought one second hand it broke but gave them the serial number and they said its still in 12month warranty and repaired it. This was a uk mode though.

This is pretty much everything that I would want. No unwanted games bundled = no trips to CEX...etc...

Regarding the plug, am I able to use my PS3's power cord? All my cables are tucked away and tidied up, I would prefer to just take my ps3 base out and swap it straight with the ps4 using the exact same power cord, HDMI and ethernet cables.

Hot

Great price

Found this, think it can be useful for someone, as i bought a few figure 8 power cords, from cpc and they got 3A fuse.

A note on plug fuses

A common UK plug is generally fitted with a 3A or 13A fuse. For appliances up to 700w you need to use a 3A fuse and for appliances over 700w you need to use a 13A fuse. For example:

3A Fuse – Table lamp, standard lamp, television, video, computer, mixer, blender, fridge, freezer, power drill, jig saw, soldering iron

13A Fuse – Washing machine, dishwasher, microwave, kettle, toaster, iron

Manufacturers have now standardised plug fuse ratings to be either 3A or 13A. However, 5 Amp fuses are still used in some older equipment and are available to buy.

Worth mentioning that this is the old model

for those wondering, you can buy a replacement power for the ps4 for £1.99 of ebay!

Great deal, OP.

You can use any figure 8 power cord as long as the fuse is 5Amp it should work just fine. If you are after two controllers then this is the best deal so far. Black Friday deals will more than likely included some games and 1 pad so I took the dive and bought this one anyway, finally get to play Formula F1 2015 <3

It's worth noting (as stated in the deal description) that this is the new CUH-1200 hardware which has significantly less power usage and runs much cooler and quieter. It is also a slightly different colour to the original model and has physical buttons for power and eject unlike the awful touch sensitive ones that the first gen had. I've been eyeing this up on ebay for a few days and I believe it's better than any current deal in the UK for console and 2 controllers only.

Worth just mentioning that it's a Euro console and you'll need a 3 pin plug adaptor.

It is a Sony warranty which works in EUROPE and UK
There is no problem

EU warranty should be fine in UK I guess. UK is part of EU. It's not like it's a US model. I think these are from Hungary and that is the default language set according to one of the feedback

sony don't need receipts for other things like phones etc for warranty, so imagine it would be OK.

ask Sony on live chat that's what I did with my phone as I had no receipt.

Not that cheaper to risk getting one from EU, wait for festive sales instead.

12 months warranty by who? It's a non uk model on ebay,I seriously doubt Sony's warranty is valid anywhere in the world without receip like Apple's warranty..

Xheap as chips

You just never know what people might know unless you ask questions, the circle of life :stuck_out_tongue:

I was just quoting you saying its a Euro console. Was hoping anyone could come along and chip in an answer.

Not sure why you're asking me.

im sure you dont get warranty with ebay purchases

I am in same mind but better wait for better deals in the next 3 weeks.

Might go for it, have spare power cable at home, dont need second controller so can sell it for around £30 on fleebay. would take down price to £220. Hmmm.... Or should I wait for better deals with games, what you think, are those coming?

would have been perfect with the 20% off a few days ago :sunglasses:

Won't let me enter the link because it is too long

​I'm with you now Bashstreet. Makes sense.

When I posted that comment, there was no link to the ebay seller.

​They are a good seller, to be trusted.
