Has Lucky Hammer provided the cheapest PS3 ever?

While we’re waiting for the Wii and iPod touch auctions to finish on Lucky Hammer and Bidjam we can look at a previous bid where the two reverse auction sites had the same product on offer.

Recently, both sites auctioned a PS3. Bidjam is currently advertising on their front page that they sold a PS3 for £1.95. This is a great deal for someone as if you want to buy a PS3 at the moment you have to spend around £300 (there are some good PS3 deals here)!

The final price of the Lucky Hammer auction was a bit harder to find. However, when we did find it, we were shocked - the lowest unique bid was 24p!

24p for a PS3 – this time last year people were paying over £400 – the Lucky Hammer winner has effectively had a 99.4% discount on this price!

So here’s a challenge: if anyone knows a cheaper way that someone has got a PS3, post a comment on this blog!
