I purchased mine from ACE not long ago.. .a week after that i start facing issue with date time, they ps3 after rebooted can't remember the date time and have to reset again. sigh.

i don't know what causes this or is it issue with ACE but then.. i don't plan to bring it back for them to fix. i plan to bring back singapore for warranty.

Might be a faulty "bios" battery. Or its a really old set and they recycled it as a new one.

I just found out from an ex staff of ACE.. they are actually selling refurbished as NEW 1st hand ! Damn ! Feel cheated after so long been a regular there. Anyway I checked out GameMart and had one PS3 reserved now.. Going pick it up this few days. Hopefully it's a good choice.

Regarding the time reset, err is it got something to do with the network stuff ? I read somewhere about it reseting every time u login the net..

Btw is it sufficient to play PS3 game online with just 512kbps yet streamyx popular lag-FULL connection ? mad.gif

btw Initial D arrived already.. I just saw them having fun with the game.. got few copies.. so grab it while it's there.

i bougth mine from ACE.. and the date time reset happening only a week after.. I can't be sure if its a refurbished unit because i can successfully register the warraty for one year in the sony website.

However i do feel regret that i should have asked my friend to buy a new unit from the singapore when he was there..

i still don't trust the locals much.

for my case on the date time resets.. i plan to send it to singapore for warranty check, courier to my friend who stay in singapore.. then i will be able to tell if it is a refurbished or not..

Hi....i'm from Penang too.Newbie here. U selling used PS3?? Planning to get a used set due to budget issues smile.gif Anyone?

Dude, try Gamemart in 1stop. Got mine from there - I believe warranty is 1yr but they sell Japan version. One of the dude there (Ah Tatt) quite friendly, took the time to explain it to me although i was just browsing around initially.

For PS3 blu-ray games, Gamemart/Shops in Pragin prices are good, dont bother with shops in Gurney/QBay... those prices I can vomit blood with the price salesman quoted (>RM230). Watch out for sellers trying to sell you opened&repackaged/used game - I nearly got conned by one fella in one of the shops.

Otherwise buy the PS3 from one of the shops in Lowyat forum... nelson / bernard. Their prices quite reasonable if you don't mind the shipping cost (usually RM40-RM80 to Penang) and highly recommended by the folks in the forum if you follow their forum thread.

But PS3 rarely break down. based on my research combing through forums and reviews, the absolute worst (SUAY) case is the blu ray lens rosak. Go to XBOX forum, and you'll see a stretch of 3ROD users complaining -which was why i opt for PS3.

If you can wait a few days/weeks I might be letting go of my 40GB PS3 (1 month old). Waiting for my MGS4 LE PS3 to arrive.

Hey edwin!

I just bought a PS3 from ACE april and its in good shape if you are interested.

I have to be honest with you on this. My PS3 has no issues but only got a slight irritation which the PS3 date time might need to set again on occasional reboot. other than that everything works find.

I can sell you at negotiable cheaper price because i lazy to send it back to fix and maybe use the money to get the limited edition for myself later on. The box , receipts and manuals are all brand new 90% good quality and the only game i ever play on the machine so far is MGS4. I bought from ACE.

The best thing is, i have registered the warranty and it the warranty works until April 2009. biggrin.gif

model : CECHH06 Asia version from Singapore

PM me if you or anyone is interested.
