My PS3 had/has an issue where it turns of shortly after booting up, and I've accepted that it's probably broken beyond what I can help.
I am trying to figure out my best and cheapest path to get into PS3 modding.*
I see 2 options but want advice on which one would be a better idea:
*- Pay the $79.99 fee Sony asks for and have them fix my PS3, then buy a flasher and put the CFW on my playstation.
*- Buy a $160 playstation on amazon labeled as "3.55" but take the chance that it won't actually be. ( a lot of reviews people say it doesn't come with 3.55)
My system model # is CECH-2501A if anybody is wondering.
