Cashconverters Question

SD1990

Hi all,

I have a ps3, that is broken. It plays for like an hour then freezes. Something to do with the laser. Could i get away with selling this to the likes of cash converters as a working ps3? Thanks.

Are you honestly asking us if we think you should commit this fraud?

Let's look at this the other way. Would think it's right to buy something and then have it break down an hour later? Would you not be on here complaining about how you were ripped off and that the seller is a dodgy criminal?

hmm point taken..

Cash Converters are more than likely going to try it out before they hand over any bread.

Stick it on Ebay or Adverts.ie as "faulty" if you want to sell it as is without repairing it. If not you will end up with neg points or someone chasing after you. :eek:

How much do they go for faulty do you know? Id say in working condition its worth 200.. so - cost of getting it fixed which i was quoted at 100 is it then worth 100??

Well as others said, if you sell it to cash converters as "new" and it breaks quickly enough, they'll have your name and address etc so you won't really get away with it.

You'd probably get max 50-100 for a faulty PS3 depending on the model etc as you'd most likely be selling it for parts or as a refurb model (ie someone would be taking a risk to take it off you)

Guess who won't be able to sell much on Adverts anymore, seriously OP???

Do a search on eBay for faulty/broken consoles - see what the going rate is
