Question about USED PS3's [ Use PS3 FAQ's Thread]

[Gorge]

I was thinking about buying a PS3 off craigslist but I was wondering something:

1. Do 40GB have high failure rates or anything like that (I am a 360 owner so I am paranoid)

2. Do I still get the warranty if I buy it from another person used?

1. nothing is as bad a Xbox 360, so no
2. only if they give you the reciot
