Now I've appreciated this site immensely. I've typically been one receiving the benefits of the masses who've worked so hard to find deals. Now, I may have found a deal for one or more of you to enjoy, but I'll leave it for you to decide.
Right off the bat, know that this is about getting a PAL PS2 (read that again, NOT a US version PS2, but a PAL version) for 149 pounds (not dollars). Now a PAL PS2, like all PS2s has regional/territorial lockout...so a PAL PS2 will NOT play US version PS2 games. Fair warning... However, as I am to assume that we have anandtech members from all over the world, then perhaps any of our European breathren may appreciate this post???
What I'm providing here might well be BANNED in short order as it is a forum thread link to a thread of another forum that I enjoy reading/partaking of related to PS2 happenings. This particular forum thread relates to the reader that there is an offer for folks to get a PAL PS2 for half price [in pounds] if they wish to become members of a european computer games supplier. I'm NOT endorsing this. Frankly, I've NOT dug deeply into the membership agreement!...nor do I plan to do so. I own a US PS2 and am happy with it...I offer this notice for folks interested in a PAL PS2 and how they might get what appears on the surface to be a super deal on one.
I hope this helps someone out. I make no promises. Perhaps this will prove to be the lamest post I ever make to the anandtech members and I apologize in advance if so proven. And please!!! know that I'm not affiliated with this particular promotion...although I feel the wrath of those that will soon be quick to try and argue this point. Again, just passing on info for those members that might have interest, relatives, etc. So, Hot Deals Mods, crack out your padlock if you need to, just know that my intent is purely informational.
Thanks,

BTW...I still *LOVE* my $299 for $73 Lightening Hepa vacuum cleaner from TARGET!!!
