Hi everyone, I've been meaning to get my hands on either a Playstation 1 or Playstation 2 to access some older games, I was just wondering where the best places to look are.

You can go on eBay or online marketplaces that are popular where you are from, or try your luck by going to thrift stores.

I've gotten most of mine from either ebay or local retro gaming shops. They can be a little pricey, but I've had good luck so far.

Oh I took them from a userbar site. You can find them around the internet, tumblr, or even some generators.
Maybe I'll make a fresh topic on the forum about them later.

What is CEX ? Live in Europe and I never heard of it LMAO

second hand technology shops. games, game consoles, game accessories, e-scooters, media players, tvs, hair dryers (idkwththtfbo), dvds, blurays, ipods, etc

Definitely look into thrift shops, retro shops or online. If you are looking online, make sure you look for reputable sellers. Ones I can suggest and have seen some for sale are at a company called CEX. Not too sure what the price are for ps2 as I already have one and bought it full price when it was still relatively new at the time, I would hopefully assume it has dropped in price since then.

Good luck with the hunt and find one for a good low price while in good condition. I can assure you will not regret having a ps2, absolute blast from the past that will not disappoint. Just make sure you go for the PS2 and not the PS1 as PS2 is cross compatible with PS2 games and it's predecessors giving you more range in games you can play.
