Title: Region-Modded PS1 PSX package: taking offers, auction-style [USA 91107]
Post by: jasonbar on May 18, 2011, 02:30:12 am: Howdy-

Now that I got my PS2 modded, I want to sell off my modded PSX (PS1) system (MODDED TO PLAY BACKUPS & IMPORTS), + accessories. There are few of these items for sale or sold recently, so I'm having trouble finding a fair price reference. So, I'll start low & accept increasingly higher offers.

I'd prefer to sell this as a lot--if you really want a portion of this set, let me know, & we'll see if we can work something out.

Let's start the lot at $25 + shipping from USA 91107.

  Sony Console, SCPH-5501: modded with 550X mod chip in 1998--plays backups & Japanese games
  Sony Analog controller, SCPH-1200

Post by: jasonbar on May 18, 2011, 09:12:04 pm: Auction will end on Tues 5/24/2011, 6PM California time.

OK, max bid is currently $27.51 by HatefulGravy on AtariAge. Let's round off bids to the nearest dollar from now on, please.

Please note that I've posted to AtariAge, BYOAC, Digital Press, Nintendo Age, & Sega-16. I'll keep all threads updated as each bid comes in, doing my best to keep up with PMs & posts, especially during the final frenzy.

Also, please note that the photo album shows a Crazy Climber 2000 disc & screen shot. Crazy Climber 2000 is *not* included in this package--I showed it only for proof that this US system can play Japanese games.

Thanks,
-Jason

You could list it on GameGavel

I think the problem where the auction isn't self-contained and documented in a single thread is the potential for abuse, although Jason has been listing where the current high bid comes from.

Post by: jasonbar on May 19, 2011, 02:28:55 pm: Thanks for your inputs!

I did consider GameGavel, but I'm not convinced that it has enough eyeballs looking at it...

Tough call--hopefully, this will all work out...and I'll probably never pursue this path again for a sale... :)

Well, I don't plan on selling any modded consoles in the future anyway, so I'm probably set!

Thanks,
