Looking for new non-slim PS3's...Any ideas?

[Cisco in HD]

I have a cousin that got some money for Xmas and now he wants to buy a ps3, but he doesn't want the slim ones that are currently out now. At the places he's been to they only have refurbished ones.

Are there any places online where he can get a new 80GB "fat" ps3?

If he has to get a refurbished one, has anyone heard any bad things or gotten a bad ps3 this way? Or are they good as new?

Thanks.

I think they still sell them new on Amazon.

I picked up a 80 gig refurb Backwards compatible one from game stop a couple years back. I've had no problems with it at all. Last year my buddy got a 60 gig from there too with the same result no problems.

If you're talking about amazon, that's not from them. It's from a 3rd party seller.
