PS3 Box Dimensions

RobH · 4 Sep 2008 at 21:14

Can anyone tell me what the dimensions of the PS3 box are? I missed a recorded delivery today and I'm guessing it was my PS3. The reason I ask is because I'm wondering if it'll fit in a backpack as I'm collecting it via the bus.

Thanks

43.5 * 17.5 * 34 cm

Should be noted mine has a handle on top.

P.s. It happens to be on the cabinet behind my desk and I happened to have a tape measure to hand.

Don't know the dimmensions of the top of my head but it won't fit in a back pack, maybe a suitcase?

It should have a carry handle though, or mine did anyway.

it's heavy. just so you know.

Thanks for the info, I guess I'll have to figure something out, it's only a 10 minute bus ride but I don't exactly want to be carrying around a PS3 in the open.

It won't fit in a backpack!

It's a bit heavy to lug very far and you definitely want a bin bag or something to hide its value.

Youll need a big bag likes. When i bought mine the shop didnt have any decent bags left. SO i was left with 2 bin liners. And i had to get to the bus station through a busy shopping centre. Then when I got home I had to walk like 1 mile, all the while holding this heavy as **** console inside a crappy plastic bin liner.

Worth it though

maybe you could take it out stick it in your back pack then fold the box flat in another bag?

Tell me about it! I had to carry mine back from town in one hand with two full bags of clothes in the other. My arm hurt when I got back and I only live a ten minute walk from the town centre.

Unless you have one of those massive mountaineering rucksacks then it won't fit!

My mum collected it for me in the end, I finish work at 11:30 and the post office closes at 12:30 so I'd have been pushing it, not to mention getting the thing completely soaked trying to get it home. I've opened it and played around a little, I had to check it was on as it was so quiet, my freeview DVR makes more noise.
