    Where NOT To Buy PS3s In Akihabara

    Shadier than eBay! Slightly unsettling! A folding table was set up in front of Akihabara station earlier this week. Handbills were distributed, stating that 300 low-end PS3s were available for purchase at a close-to-retail-price of 49,980 yen. Interested consumers filled out a reserve ticket with their name and address. The machines are then being sold out of an address in Shibuya that Japanese site Akiba Blog isn't quite sure is legit. My rule: Never buy anything off a folding table. Brian Ashcraft
