According to the auction only 100. *whistles* I'd say $1,000 isn't too high an asking price.

Wow...I don't think a different colored system is worth that much, even if there are only 100 in the world. Unless, of course you're planning to sell it to Queen of the Felines.... :evil:

That is crazy high for just a different color LE system. Any other difference at all?

It might play all regions. PapaStu or Dangerboy may know for certain.

Holy Hell I wanna suck it!!!!!!!!!! Seriously thinking about going after this. Will ask the parents if this can be the Birthday/graduation present I didnt get yet.
Daria:
As far as I know its just a VERY limited system (100 units sounds right) that was to commorate the 10,000,000 units that shipped for the PS. I dont believe that it was region free but there really is so little out about this PS that I honestly dont know.

Hmmm....it's located quite nearby me =D. Wish there was more info on this thing.
Dangerboy

The system's rarity isn't so much in it's coloring, but its uniqueness. The packaging is custom for the system, the serial numbers / serial plate are exclusve to that series, and out of 10,000,000 systems, only 100 of these exist. Yeah it's pretty damn impressive. As is the fact that it still has the personalized letter and *inked* autograph of a Sony rep congratulating them.
The sytems are NOT region free (The serial plate clearly states NTSC U/C) and SOny's only systems that allowed region free were either the Blue Debug Units or the Yaroze. One was industry only, one required a specific memory card just to turn on. Good possibility they wouldn't make this universal.
Consider that out of the 100 that exist, all 4 DP PSX hardcores (Kristine, Kevin, Papastu, myself) have only seen a total of THREE, with this being the third, and most beautifully depicted/archived reference ever.
You know how many I'd kill to be able to sit down and play NBA 2Ball on that thing?
These are the times that try men's souls, wallets, and...more....

Damn, for what QOF said, I'm tempted. :D
I have to agree the condition is great, and $1000 seems nice....I'm tempted to grab this only because the value will go up in a few years. I KNOW it will.
For now, it goes into the watch list. :)

Yummy... investment time... nothing like a limited edition PSX to get the fans salivating ;)
If Kris and I can find a debug PSX in a general games shop sold second hand, then anything's possible. Will keep an eye on this one...

If I was a hard core PSX fan I would be all over that.
1000 dollars , wouldnt be an issue on something so rare IMO.

Oh I wasnt even talking about my dirty bit ;) .
Seriously though after talk with parents about this, I will be making a move on this. Problem is who else is going to be looking at this and how high it might fly. Im hoping that a 1Grand opening is enough to make sure that most arnt even going to think about bidding on it.
Time will tell. Aug 23 7 pm (Pst) tick tick tick tick tick tick

I'm horrible when it comes to converting military time, but does it end at 11pm central time on Monday? My plane lands around 7ish so I sure hope to do some sniping, I've got $10k left to go on my card... :evil:

According to my math, it ends at 7pm pacific, which would make it 9pm central on Aug. 23 (Monday). :)

I remember when the australian OPSM had a competition for one of those.. sans-console.
It probably wasnt the same one because they were only giving away 2 "incredibly rare, not available to the public" midnight blue dual shock controllers in a special collectors box (no console).
1k is a lotta sexual favours (too many for me), but in a few years time it will be worth even more sexual favours :P

She was gonna make the Jello. That stuff's complicated.

"Oh, by the way," she calmly added in our conversation, "if you bid on that $1,000 item, I'll kill you."
- Dangerboy's mom.
And with that, any thoughts I had about it are gone.
Doh. :(
Although, if someone buys it for me, I'd be inclined to do my best Queen impression. ;)
PapaStu
08-17-2004, 09:32 PM
Welp DB then u might be looking towards me, though I'd prefer Queen to give me a lil sugar.
Ive been given the Go for it. Lets see how bad this might get...

How high is everyone willing to go? No way in heck this goes for just a thousand, so you may have to be prepared to open up the walet REALLY far on this one.....

Well, I know I am out.
I just spent $900 on a new PC, because my old one died a clunky, clunky death.
Also, if anyone has any tried and true ways to get data off of a dead hard drive, or at least get to boot so i can bun data off of there, it would be greatly appreciated.
Because if I can't, there's going to be a LOT More than just an nba 2ball pic lost in this drive crash.... :eek 2:

Is Paparoach somebody from this board?

Expect a visit from Kris.. X_x

Ouch papa didn't even bid, and he was doing the play by play in vbender. Good job BuyAtari.

08-23-2004, 10:26 PM
I wasnt going to bid myself up if I had the choice. I had another bid primed and ready, but with the refresh I saw the 1 second, BuyAtari 1300.00 . It was game over. A very well played Snipe.
If possible we'd like to get some nice (close up) pics of the system, box and letterfor the PS site that Dangerboy runs.
Now maybe more will show up since this one sold for a nice price, so others holding on to it might let go as well.
SoulBlazer
08-23-2004, 10:31 PM
How much would have you have bid for that, Papa?
Hey Buyatari, I'll give you half the money if I can borrow Kris from you for a hour. ;)
Nice score!
