Have spent the past few days trying to pick up a cheap PS3 from somewhere. Keep finding ones for about £50 on gumtree but I don't know whether it's worth the risk of buying one that way, as knowing my luck it'll have the YLOD or something will be wrong with it.

Well you'd play it a little before you buy it, making sure it's in working order before you buy it. Then, once you got it home, if you get the YLOD that'd hardly be his/her fault. The risk is valid. Esp. with the frequency that PS3 went dark. |

Check the model number of the console you are buying. If it is one of the 80GB/40GB fat models with ports for four controllers. Avoid at all cost. Yeah you can play ps2 games on it but it will likely YLOD on you sooner or later.
