Im thinking about getting the Ps3 at BB with the 30 dollar gift card...

Is this the best deal right now?

If you need one now and not a little later sure. Otherwise look for something better. Personally I always get mine from Amazon Warehouse but if you don't want to do that there's also the option of Gamestops bundle that comes with the Sly Collection, Gran Turismo 5 XL, and a 30 day PS+ pass.

There's definitely been better deals out there though.

Edit: looking at the Warehouse there's some decent deals at the moment but nothing amazing. A few "very good" condition 320GB PS3s for $214.xx - $217.xx. That's ok but they have had the Uncharted 3 bundles for around that price at times (you have to get pretty lucky or constantly watch for them if you want that).

Also, if you can wait until Black Friday there will of course be some killer deals.

If you want a new one, this week's GameStop deal is solid enough. But you'll find better deals used or on Amazon Warehouse.

They're not necessarily used. Sometimes Amazon will put their new stock in there if the outer box shows damage, even minor. I know tons of people who have gotten pretty much brand new systems from AWD. Plus they're not SOL, as they can still get a squaretrade warranty if they wanted to

Actually it's $40 for 2 years using a 30% off code which are usually pretty easy to find. That's really not bad at all.

Ill probably just stick with the BB deal, I got some reward ceritficates to burn and a BB credit card that will give me triple points(Another 15 dollars in RC) and I can finance it for six months free interest...

That itll make it like 40 bucks a month......

Id rather get a whole brand new system because my original 60gb launch just quit on me and I will probably go get it repaired locally by someone at some point but I figured I might as well get a replacement to the heavy gaming.....

These new slims are reliable arent they?
