My hard to get region B player was stolen : (

[Mermen79]

I'm a student at UCLA and I had some of my stuff stored with a friend over the summer. This included my UK PS3 which was REALLY hard and expensive to get to the US. I spent a lot of time and money to get it to be able to watch region locked German releases (been trying to learn German).

My friend moved early out of the room and didn't tell me. The next person to move in just moved the stuff into another room without even bothering to close or lock the door. Naturally, within a couple days, it must have been stolen. By the time I finally got back to start the quarter (maybe a week later), no one had a clue about it. I'm so mad and sad. This is a Christian community house, too (another reason for me to dislike the christian faith and all its "morals").

I'm upset at my friend as well as the idiot who didn't give a shit about another person's stuff (it was only a couple small boxes along with the PS3 in its original box).

So, what's the best way to get another UK or European player? I'm going for budget this time. I won't be able to get it for probably a year (don't have money) but maybe I can just think about it. Hopefully it'll make me feel better.

I'm just so angry. I've been so excited to get Sleeping Beauty in German but it seems like Disney has that catalogue title region locked. Ahhh!!!!!

At the end of the day, it's still an electronic and can be replaced with money. I guess when I think about that, I feel just a little better.

The cheapest "region free" player on "bluraymods" is going for over $750USD. Crazy. Probably a silly question, but is there any way to make a US PS3 region free for blu ray?
