Just a question - Blu-ray Forum

So I'm trying to get my 5 free movies, and unfortunately no one in the thread dedicated to that subject has helped...

so I need all my bros to come together and get this done...

I need to know what my UPC code is on my PS3-60 gig...

Someone said it should end in 80002... But I dont have a bar code with that on my box...

is it the one that ends 80000? The POS code?

If not can someone help a brother out.

You have to have the UPC barcode, NOT the POS barcode. You don't need the number, you need the physical item from your box

jamclaur · 09-14-2007, 02:54 PM

That's the thing... I don't know which of the 4 to cut out...

He said it would have 80002... But I don't have that.

The POS code says 80000... But that's the only thing I have that's close to what he described.

On the cardboard box that the PS3 came in there is no UPC code??

jamclaur · 09-14-2007, 07:52 PM

IDK...

There are 4 boxes... None of them say UPC.

katharsis · 09-14-2007, 07:57 PM

You got 4 different boxes to look at or 4 different barcodes found on 1?

katharsis · 09-14-2007, 08:01 PM

UPCs in general look like this:

If I'm not mistaken, the UPC should be on the top of the box like shown in this pic:

It's the smaller one...it will be by itself and include no other information on the barcode (unlike the larger one which has serial number and so on), based on the picture shown by glenn

Doesn't matter what model number or POS code it has. All Sony cares is that you bought it during the dates required to get the movies. As long as you send in the barcode and a receipt showing the purchase during the dates indicated, you will receive the movies.

That's the POS code I was talking about... But the guy above you said no that one.

If you're that worried, and you don't get an answer that puts your worry to rest, perhaps you should cut them all out and send then all in. It may be overkill, but it will work.

+1 there... can't lose.

jw · 09-15-2007, 01:59 AM

I would just mail them the whole box, that way you are sure you have met the requirements....lol

jamclaur · 09-15-2007, 05:28 PM

haha... I'm trying to salvage the box... I'm actually not at home at the moment. But I will post a picture of all the bar codes later...

If nothing else I will just cut them all out.lol.

Maxell · 09-16-2007, 04:24 AM

POS (Point of Sale) is the UPC code. It would be on the left side of the codes on a PS3 60gb.

JadedRaverLA · 09-16-2007, 04:32 AM

I don't know if they changed the UPC on the PS3, but the basic format for UPC codes is:

# ##### ##### #

Basically 12 numbers, 1 small, then 5 large, then 5 more large, then 1 more small. Nothing else such as a serial number, etc. will be connected to it. It should be the only one to match that format.
