or you can try to use a hairdryer to remove that very very hard sticker. It might be possible. I used this trick to exchange a computer "peripheral" at wal-mart. It might work. Practice removing the sticker on your BROKEN ps2 first. That way u wont ruin the one u just bought in case u need to take it back.
Dont go to big electronics stores, they automatically know to check this stuff. Go wor wal-mart or target. Get a girl thats in a hurry or something, or on a saturday..heehee! I'm BAD!
