What is the best way to make money off of an old playstation?

[andrew333]

i bought a bunch of playstation games and as part of the package an original playstation was included

it looks like eb will give me ten dollars of store credit

any ideas how i can do better without having to mail it anywhere (e.g., eBay)?

umm..sell it to a public school for money (after school programs?) try 2 rip em off! they can afford it with all that funding they get ...

err..i wud say flea market..if there are any by u, try 2 get a table and sell!

Take your Playstation, go on the street, beat up some guy, and take his money.

no no you setup some 3 card monte on top of the playstation. The game will be rigged of course so you cant lose. Your odds of making a profit are 100%!

Put up on auction on Ebay with the highest bidder receiving a video of you destroying it in whatever fashion they would like.

Use it as a paper-weight / door stop / batting practice ... or give it away to a family member or goto the hospital and give it to a sick kid who doesn't have one

Try craigslist if you want to try to sell it without shipping.

 

[andrew333]

do you really think a hospital would be interested in one? a used one?

i would definitely do that donation, you always see these organizations who only want new games etc.

go back in time and sell it when the playstation came out, or better yet, go even further back in time, and sell it saying that it is the wave of the future

The problem with the latter is that Sony would end up ruling the world, sega would be in business, microsoft would be ded and nintendo would be in ded last. Sega would join forces with nitendo to make game boy gear and overtake any chance of the psp. so sega and nintendo overlords anyone?

Get a dress for it, slap some lipstick on it and put it out on the street corner.

Just say that you saw the face of Jesus on it.
