Default Slim ps2

Where can I buy a slim PS2 this time of year, they all seem to be sold out.

Save my life, where can I get one?

Argos but only if you go into store and if you are lucky you can reserve one. Work colleague got a call from Dixons today saying his pre-order was ready for collection. Don't think you'll find any off the shelf waiting to be purchased.

Apparently theres a container ship full of slim PS2's stuck somewhere (suez canal I think) with the units bound for our shores. This is supposedly the cause of the problems the UK is experiencing in the lack of slim PS2's at present.

They are indeed stuck in the Suez Canal. However we have plenty in stock with a Sony projector as a bundle deal

Strange how the original PS2 had supply issues as well. Loads of publicity/ hype just before Christmas !!!!!

you old cynic!
Oh course you're probably correct, and lets face it, it's the same console anyhow, so why not you the same trick.
Heard on the radio they're now flying some in so shops will have stock again soon....
