$203.50

everything works and looks good! :D

now what games should i get for it...


Seller needs the snot knocked out of them for sticking a label on the box and shipping it like that. Even casting aside any "OMG the boxxorz is ruined!" thoughts, it's amazing it made it with its contents intact.

As long as a PS3 has 4 USB ports and a chrome faceplate along the disc drive area it's BC.

All the MGS models were the software BC 80GB models. They're compatible with 70%-80% of all PS2 games.
My Consoles:
Genesis - Nomad - SegaCD - GameGear - Sega Saturn - Dreamcast - NES - SNES - N64 - Gamecube - Wii - Playstation - PSone & LCD - PS2 - PS3 - Xbox - 3DS

Even though it got there OK slam him with some negative feedback. Stuff like that isn't acceptable, sure it worked out this time but who knows what can happen next?

wooooah. That's hasty. At most I'd say "neutral" feedback. I don't really think it's worth negative.

Only if they have both 4-USB ports and the chrome strip across the disc drive and front faceplate.

If the system only has 2-USB Ports and the faceplate is a matte painted on silver then the system is not backwards compatible.

True, but at least slam him with some negative on the packaging and shipping section of the feedback.
