I've been yearning for a PS2 for some time now and I have been looking on Facebook Marketplace for a while to see if I could pick up a bargain. Very recently I spotted a £20 PlayStation 2 that was being cleared from a garage with no controller, no leads and a memory card. I felt lucky so I ventured into the murky world of FB Market Place and headed out in my car to snare myself a catch. For posterity I decided to capture my process of cleaning her up and getting her working. 

The long term plan is to play more PS2 games and hoover up some discs from the local car boot sale, the short term plan is to buy a controller.

Take a look at my video as I bring my PS2 home and get her settled in:
