New from SuccessHK (http://www.superufo.com/product_html/Playstation_3_Sony_Playstation_3_60GB_HK_Version.h tml?aff_id=24) are Hong Kong PS3 Consoles which are fully compatible with the voltage in the UK, they are retailing at USD 571.00 (£285 then add shipping).

Luckily SuccessHK ship worldwide. Also today they have price dropped the Japan 60GB (http://www.superufo.com/product_html/Playstation_3_Sony_Playstation_3_60GB_Japanese_Ver sion.html?aff_id=24) version down to $552 (£275) and the Japan 20GB (http://www.superufo.com/product_html/Playstation_3_Sony_Playstation_3_20GB_Japanese_Ver sion.html?aff_id=24) version down to $453 (£226).

Luckily the PS3 is fully region free with games, Shipping from Hong Kong costs USD88.78 (£44)

So you could have a 20GB PS3 for £270 and a 60GB PS3 for as little as £319. Saving £100 on the official UK price

Cheers for the information mate, just need some verification here. So let's say I was to do this deal, would I be able to play UK games and movies? I would have no troubles with anything except the warranty stuff obviously?

The PS3 games are region-free so a game bought in the UK will work in a HK PS3. The only concern I have is being stung for import tax. If import tax is £40 on a PSP, how much would it be on a PS3?

Don't forget, games are region free but the movies are NOT! and will only play on the correct region's machine. So if you buy from this place then I think you will only be able to play region 1 movies. So beware!
