It all depends on the seller, before buying anything used you should always request pictures of the defects if there are any. Some people keeps their portables clean, others wipe their asses with them.

I would not buy a any video game system or accessories used without seeing good photos first to look for scratches etc.
And at the moment I am glad to be able to buy such things new, I prefer them not to buy used at all. This and PC components that quality depends very much how good they were treated by their previous owner(s) like HDDs and RAM. But if I were more tight on money I'd consider it, if the system would look ok and came with all the stuff that was in the box, preferably with the box itself. But that's me.

What? Shipping to Iraq from the US is even more expensive then to Germany? Wow, would not have guessed it could get more expansive. Always irks me that shipping from Honk Kong/China and Japan is a lot more cheap then from the US.
