EDIT: This item is sold. Thanks to all one of you that replied!

Since I do a lot more traveling now than I used to, I bought one of the new PS2 "slim" models and don't have a need for my full-size PS2 anymore. This is the original SCPH-30001 model that I camped my local Best Buy for during the frigid pre-dawn hours of March 11, 2001. I've never had a problem with disc read errors that commonly plague used PS2s; I've used this machine for both DVD's and games on a regular basis up until last month and have never encountered a read error (except for some artifacting on a couple of dirty DVDs, a clean rag fixed the problem). It has ~500 play hours on it (as tallied up from my memory card usage) and is in excellent physical condition with only light scratches on the base(s). The system has been used nearly exclusively in the vertical configuration and has never been used with a rental game/DVD. One of the rubber feet is missing from the horizontal base (not sure where it got off to). I cleaned the console out pretty thoroughly with compressed air and alcohol and it looks great. I cleaned the controller thoroughly with alcohol, a paper towel, and some toothpicks to get all the gunk out/sterilize the controller and the only way I can tell it from the one that came with my new PS2 is the light buffing on the bottom where I rest the controller on my desk/bed/dresser. Also included is the network/HDD adapter, since I was thinking about running Linux on it for awhile but never could work up enough nerve to mod chip it. That being said, I'm given to understand this model is compatible with a good deal of mod chips out there though I encourage you to do your own homework on that account. The network adapter is only three months old.

You get:
1x PlayStation2 game console (SCPH-30001)
1x DualShock2 controller (SCPH-10010)
1x PlayStation2 network adapter (SCPH-10281)
1x PlayStation2 composite A/V cable
1x power cable
Manuals and original sales receipt for PS2
Manuals and startup CD for network adapter

Everything is boxed up in the original blue PS2 box with styrofoam inserts. The original expansion bay cover is installed on the console for shipping; you will need to install the network adapter when you get it.

Asking price is $120 (including shipping) for all of the above.
Will ship to Canada and lower 48 states using a trackable non-UPS Ground courier (No, I don't do the brown box of doom). Payment by money order or PayPal wire transfer only (no credit card transfers!). This is my first time selling anything online, so I don't have any references aside from my eBay feedback (eBay UserID is drasnor) and I bought some RAM off of citrixmeta here on SM a month or so back. I'm at college right now, so I can only ship on weekends.

PM if interested or have questions.
