ya..VERY TRUE..this is the common tricks done by irresponsible dealers/sellers...the most common thing they do is change the original PS3 lens to the non ori ones,so they can sell the ori ones to other customers..
This is one of the major reason y a lot of PS3 users complaint about dead lens in jz couple of months,or even WEEKS!!!..so beware...
rm1280 is way way to low...we as dealers noe clearly tat this kind of profit(if sell at rm1280) will def not interest any game shop in selling PS3 consoles,unless the shop doesnt want to earn a profit...which i think is impossible.
Std market price should be around rm1350-rm1390...
above are my opinion thanks.

ai brother Ben...alibaba is one crap B2B website full of scammers esp those from China...they offer super super price for all the stuff that they claim Branded and Original..
but they doesnt noe tat all those Branded goods like Sony,Nokia,and etc are controlled by the respective companies...The world factory,China is jz in charge in manufacturing certain parts of the products,the real thing will still be assemble by SONY controlled factories which had pretty much standard price all around the world.
SO,MADE IN CHINA doesnt mean it's cheaper to buy from China...
the only trick distributor does is to play around with world money currency...

Is there even a non-ori lens?I thought lens depends on ur luck not bcos of ori or non-ori(tht's wht tot31 said).He has experience in fixing and changing lens,so i think he should know.

yes there is...i think tot31 refering to a "UNCHANGED std PS3" which had never been 'touched' be4...no doubt that some ori lens also will get defect but it's def a lot more lasting and better quality then the non ori(third party) lens..
But nowadays,some irresponsible seller charged the lens to a 'third party' manufactured PS3 lens..
yes there are a lot of third party lens avavilble,jz simply google u can find already...got different model somemore..example: KES410ACA,KES410A n etc...
p/s: i also provide console serving and repairing..althou is my technician doin it..but more o less i have a bit of knowledge to comment on this.

I think 'PS3 40GB SG Set (White) free 1 game' for RM1590 is not called 'free 1 game' loh.....it is included with package...and usually ps3 40GB set is RM1350 with 1 game is cost around RM190+-.....and HDMI cable is around RM45++......but you get it at RM110 which i think is over price...
obviously not free la that game kuang kuang kuang

I think officially they will start selling in Sept for the 80GB version. No price drop though (unfortunately) but who knows, after Xbox dropped their prices. PS3 might follow thru.
However, you might pay slightly higher now but the feel of getting online and play your fav game with your buddies and friends.... PRICELESS!!!!
