    I would avoid ebay if possible. I doubt you'd get a much better deal, and having to ship everything might not be worth the hassle to you. I'd try craigslist before ebay.

    I would agree with this... I'd probably go $120 or $125.

    My gut reaction was 70 for console, 10 for memory, 40 for controllers and 60 for the games. Total of 180.00

    I personally don't think it's too much to start at as it's easier to go down and feel good about it than to take a lower amount and wish you have gotten an extra 20 - 40 bucks out of it.

    he could get all of that at gamestop for around 120-130. so thats the deal your gonna have to beat.

    if you're really interested to know what gamestop would give for all of that I can ring it up tomorrow morning and let you know.

    1 controller comes with a ps2, and another controller is not worth $40. maybe $10.

    $70 console, $20 extra controller and memory, $40 for the games. That is how I looked at it.

    Anything over $130 is way too much in all honesty. Better deals are to be had at gamestop, and at least at gamestop he'd have the option of some sort of warranty.

    I will put the over/under at $69. I'll take the under, as I think maybe $60 for everything.

    I dunno, I still have a backlog of ps2 games, so I need BC or a PS2 (I have both). But I have way more games than you, and the games you did have have better versions on ps3.

    well ill be selling my lightly used slim, 2 memory cards, 2 controllers, ncaa 2009, gta san andreas, need for speed underground, rockband 1 and 2 (game only) lord of the rings 3 return of the king....

    ok at gamestop, heres the used prices.

    $70 for the ps2 (plus 1 controller)
    $35 for rock band 2
    $20 for rock band 1
    $15 for need for speed underground
    $15 for a controller
    $15 for NCaa09
    $15 for GTA SA

    so if he wanted to get all of that from gamestop, it would cost him well over $150, so i think $150 should be your asking price.

    B2G1 free is a pretty regular event though. I'm just saying whoever goes to gamestop and pays $185 for all that is not the brightest.

    that's true.

    Also, Apparently Ncaa 2009 is 26.99 right now. But that will be going down very soon im sure.

    Mem cards are 12.99 each.

    he probably wants to just flip the console for a higher price. maybe its just me but i'd figure a guy working as a gaming associate already has a ps2..
    that said, i have no idea about ps2 pricing, i've never owned one.
