it might be ok still.. but test it completely before purchase. as there might not be any guarantee for it. good luck

i dont know but i think you shud try checking garage sales here first. the last time i went there, saw a few for less than 1k. i dont really trust mudah after what happened last time. but its up to you.

just check for faults like YLOD and hard disk drive when you purchase it. also get the serial number and check the warranty status online or something. network card etc. if all else pass, den it would be the physical condition of the console.

good luck owning your console soon.

Its okay to buy anything if you have the money for it. The question is are you willing to take the risk? Mudah IMHO is a bit dangerous. There's quite a few honest ones, but compared to LYN, I feel there are more predators there.

i would avoid mudah.

better to get used PS3 from lowyat garage sales (my 1st ps3 was purchased from a garage sale post).

but generally malaysians do not take good care of their consoles (boxes will be dented, console has scratches, cables are all worn or replaced with cheaper 3rd party etc.).

unless you buy from a collector.....

Dude, if you're that poor with the prices just get a SG set.
It cost like what ? Less than 1k ?

rich or poor is subjective.

my motto is simple, if you can't afford it, don't get it.
