The Playstation 3 (also known as the PS3) is Sony's latest game system following the success of the first two Playstations. The system was released on November 11, 2006. The PS3 competes with Microsoft's Xbox 360 and Nintendo's Wii. Although the system is theoretically the most powerful of the three, it is behind the Xbox 360 and the Wii in sales with a little more then five million sold. This is slightly less the half of the other systems sales. Typically this has been attributed to the price of the system. The Playstation 3 usually retails for almost double the price of a Wii at $499.
Regardless, I opted to get a Playstation 3 for myself instead of any of the other systems. Unlike the Xbox 360 and Wii the PS3 offers high definition Blu-ray movie playback out of the box. Simply put watching movies on Blu-ray is stunning. The picture and sound is incredible. The Xbox 360 supports HD-DVD, but you have to buy an extra add on player for this function to work! High definition on the Wii? Forget it, it's not available! I wanted to play games and have the next generation of video playback......
After hearing about the capabilities of the PS3 I started to shop around. Like most people, paying $499 for a game system was just too much. I tried many of the big retailers; Best Buy, Comp USA, Circuit City, and so on. Basically what I learned was that retailers such as these agree to set the price that Sony wants. You just won't find it priced lower then this at any of these stores.
So now I will let you in on how I got a PS3 for $327 dollars. One word: eBay. Let me say this, there are some incredible deals on that site. Now I know a lot of people don't like the hassle of dealing with eBay, but I found a few sites that help out with process. Basically there are many sites that list all the best deals on eBay, so it takes a lot of work out of shopping There, and try a Google search. Did I mention these sites also have games and accessories listed? Buy your PS3 today and save money, give eBay a try!
