PS3 Slim Laptop Giveaway

Astan92 · Post by **Astan92** » Sat Dec 19, 2009 9:20 pm

If you all are aware Ben's PS3 Slim laptop was given to a store called The Score to be used in a giveaway. http://thescoreonline.com/ps3laptop.shtml The drawing was about 2 hours ago and I was the winner. I have little interest in keeping it and plan to sell it on ebay. What are your thoughts on this?

I'd let Ben help me sell it if I won it. (If I chose to sell it that is.)

We have had some people lately who have been running ebay scams. Adversing they are selling 360 laptops, just like ben makes. And going as far to use his images.

How would I contact him?

Send him a pm might be the best was to get his attention. His email box can be flooded at times.

That is really the only way you will be able to sell it. Even on eBay with Ben's help might be difficult, because of fake bidders (aka jerkwads). Maybe ask Ben if he knows of anyone who would like to buy it.

Yeah I am worried about the jerkwads. I PMed Ben so I'll see what he has to say

The best way to get a hold of Ben is by emailing him. He's not on the forums all that much, so a PM can go unanswered for weeks.

I would say if you want to sell the PS3 do what makes sense, take your own pictures. Have it run a game while you do so. Just to show people that it's not a copied picture. I don't know if ebay allows you to use video but that would be great too.

As for me I wouldn't see something made by Ben. And if it's a PS3, well that means I can start looking at some of the nice PS3 games, cause I just don't have that system. But that is of course me, if you have a PS3 the laptop Ben made would be a little redundant for your use.

I try emailing him too. I am taking my own pictures and have some videos to put on youtube. I don't have any games to play on it however but I turned it on and messed around with it a little.

Take pictures with a piece of paper with your username in the shot. Also, you can embed Youtube videos in the auction description.
