Question US PS2?

Does anyone know where the best, cheapest place is to get a US PS2 in Australia? I've looked at places like playasia.com but they don't sell any. I want one because mod chips are illegal and i thought it would be a good alternative seeing as actually 99% of my PS2 games are NTSC.

Correct. And nor is Swap Magic, which will let you play import games without modding (as modding does void your console warranty, even when legal in Australia).

Really...i thought they had been ruled illegal here again. Well that's good news but either way i don't know anyone who mods PS2's ...and i am not game enough to go buy a solder and do it my self. I might look at swap magic.
