Does anyone have the original PlayStation 2 for sale???
Unfortunately there isn't a zero star rating. Otherwise I'd have given this rating a zero!
Thinking that I'd finally tracked down an original PS2, I went ahead and purchased this. To my horror (and relief, now that I think about it) my money was returned along with a notification stating that the wrong product had been shipped. So...thanks for nothing is what I'm basically saying.

If anyone has an original big body PS2 for sale, please let me know!!!

Thanks!
