sure. try local cash converters and similar shops. you can even check the firmware in store.

either that or ask local junkies. they will sell them real cheap

also its quite easy to stick an ad in the supermarkets as a "wanted" item (put model specification on note)

simple things sometimes work best

bollocks to trading with junkies pal if i seen a junkie round my way with a slim id take the phuker clean off him. cash converters sounds a little more promising though. supermarkets a no go at that price (tried and failed) I'll be heading straight to cash converters the morrow after work though and see what they can do.

Funnly enough I went to cash converts to get the move starter kit, they had it there at 14 quid for the move and camera. Bought it then went to CEX in Bradford, it was 8 quid more expensive, less than 100 meters between the 2 shops.
