Sad to see everyone seemed to have naff results with this.
I was hugely tempted at that price, just want a cheap PS3, not expecting the entire world but just one that works but when I saw it was MusicMagpie I just couldn't bring myself to buy it. Never liked them.

I researched the error and its to do with a faulty wifi receiver which would explain why when I turned it on, it wouldn't find any wifi connections at all.
Only second time ive used these clowns, ordered a cd that was scratched to bits and now this. How on earth they can describe items as fully tested and in perfect working condition is beyond me. Never again!

Mines going back unless anyone knows how to get past this error during update?
8002F1F9 . Even in safe mode it only wants to do this update and cuts out at about 60% every time.
Great deal for a blu-ray player with a hard drive and the capability to play some awesome games / all the standard apps.

can anyone guide me on how to charge the controllers ? I have 160gb model with genuine controllers but dont know if I can charge them without connecting it to the PS3 ? Thanks in advance

They can be charged using a PC or another games console. They generally do not charge on mobile phone chargers (or other "dumb" chargers")
Probably can; I already was using my ps3 so just kept using it after the ps4 for media. Media remote is better for ps3; and ps3 is supposed to be a better blu-ray player http://www.hdtvtest.co.uk/news/ps4-201312173519.htm

Hot deal, a repair even on a phat ps3 is often £40+.

I have a working PS3 that I haven't used in years, still I clicked on this thread as its a pretty great price...
Even if you don't like games the PS3 is a great streaming device, one of the only systems that boasts bbc, itv, all4, channel 5, sky, Netflix, amazon, wwe (ufc maybe>?) etc etc etc
Much better than a fire stick or Roku at this price

You are quite right.
Though a fire stick or roku does take up a fraction of the space.

For one thing, you can't actually put video or music files on the PS4, you can only play them via usb from external storage or stream them over WiFi from a media server. So dumb.

Great deal and still a great console. Massive library of dirt cheap games that still play great and still been getting games very recently and great for the less common genres like JRPGs and Visual Novels.

yeah still got my 320gb slim and with games so cheap (thanks not being backwards compatible ps4!) you can have lots of fun pretty tres reasonably. just, genuine ps3 controllers now are nuts money.

add a remote and you've got a great media player; mine is still set up besides my ps4 for this purpose and the odd game.

Cannot the ps4 not match it as a media player nowadays?

Well worth it. Some truly superb games at bargain prices and it's still one of the best, if not THE best Blu-Ray player money can buy. Heat!

Is this a third or fourth generation 160GB PS3 model? Can't find it anywhere on their site...

i ordered one last week and it came in original box and was 2003a slim model (which are able to take cfw).
i thought i'd buy a spare one and that is a 3003a, i'm sending it back as its not reading discs well, plus it cant be "played with"

Good deal. Sold one of these on eBay a couple of months ago for over £100.

Impressive price if this includes a working official controller. They are still difficult to find anywhere at a decent price, I had to splash out nearly £40 at argos for one last year when mine gave up the ghost.

I'd like to know how they've "refurbished" this
I've had some terrible quality "used - like new" cds from Music Magpie that wouldn't even play!

Yeh I've had dvds the same, & their customer service is awful- been a month since I contacted them & still no resolution offered at all!
On Amazon they're great tho, bought stuff from them for years with perfect service, whether that's due to Amazon or they have different teams for their own site I don't know, but I cant recommend buying from them off their own site at all, its buyer beware.

A few suggestions there worth a try.
