PSP Downgrader for sale on eBay?

Posted Dec 28, 2006 at 1:09PM EST by QJ Staff

Listed in: PSP Tags: downgrade, eBay, homebrew community

Tsk, tsk.

It seems that it's not just the devotees of the PSP homebrew community">homebrew community">homebrew community who are benefiting from the hard work of devs like Dark_AleX and his friends; it looks like some entrepreneurs are also cutting in on the action.

As proof, one of our readers, Lord Pleb, gave us the heads up about this rather awkward auction that he spotted over at eBay which promises to have your PSP downgraded in five minutes. The seller won't actually do the downgrading for you, but rather, he's compiled the applications and files that you need to downgrade your PSP yourself.

I realise this is what the world is but this is sad. I think its horrible that that person could make money off of someone elses hard work. I dont think Dark_Alex is a god. But i think he is a revolutionary to the PSP Homebrew Community. He has helped my PSP be my only friend :( but seriously. The PSP would be nothing without Homebrew. Thank you Dark_Alex and all the others like Ookm and Art... theres alot to mention but some of these people are the ones that come to mind. LOL. What i said sounds so EMO.

# ha — Guest 2006-12-28 15:19

At first it could have been a little bit funny but now it's getting old and time to STFU. Thank you.

# Hmm — Guest 2006-12-28 15:25

Let's not forget the many DVDs on sale filled with PSP ISOs.

I've even seen Wii/PS3 Tracker links for sale. A LINK to the tracker that they didn't make. Disgusting.

# So what......... — Chewieshmoo 2006-12-28 15:28

Ya know, I have a different response to this. If someone is stupid enogh to pay this guy for info/files available widely online for free with just a little common sense then hell, good for the seller. I learned a long time ago BUYER BEWARE, there is a sucker born every minute and if you allow yourself to be taken advantage of then you have no one to blame but yourself.............

# This is Sad — Chw42 2006-12-28 15:56

This mofo is stealin someone else's work! WTF? DAX and the other developers need to patent this stuff. This is plagarism for god sakes. Who in their right minds would buy it anyhow? There's hundreds of sites hosting the downgrader right now! O the dumb people in this world.

# - — Guest 2006-12-28 15:58

so far i've made about 1000 pounds selling downgraders and emulators. its the best. only been doing it for about 3 months.

Thanks qj.net

# . — Guest 2006-12-28 16:12

You're a moron.

# . — Guest 2006-12-28 16:15

Dark_alex should distribute his work with a license or something.

# @ Buyer — Guest 2006-12-28 16:55

I'm pretty sure that he was being sarcastic

# Dumb buyers!! good for you! — Guest 2006-12-28 17:01

I think I'm gonna start selling links to amazing search engines... yeah search for whatever you need!!

When the bidder wins... I'll tell them:"ok, don't tell anyone! the secret search engines are Google.com, Yahoo.com and Live.com... Thanks for purchasing"

Betcha some idiots gonna buy it...

# Old news... — Guest 2006-12-28 17:11

im buyen 1 rite naw

# hey — Guest 2006-12-28 18:55

I don't know what they are doing selling someone elses work, but why do that?? Why can't they respect other people works.. I have respect for other peoples work and i thank them alot for their hard work on making psp the greatest psp in the world.. The only thing people can do is pay the people who does this kind of stuff for free my guess they want to help other and that's sweet but they need some cash because i guess they don't work and they stay in their house working 24/7 codec da psp... My point is why pay this punk for selling someone elses work if we can pay poeple like dark alex and the rest of the guyz some money for their hard work.. we all love u dark alex and the rest of the guyz.. keep up the hard work and o ya have a happy new years..

# Stupid Buyers — Guest 2006-12-28 19:06

I bet some stupid person would buy a readme on downgrading

There really is no license on the software, so what he's doing is perfectly legal. Even if it was Open-Source, GNU license allows for the software to be resold.

"i thank them alot for their hard work on making psp the greatest psp in the world"

lmfao!

# ... — Uzumaki-kun 2006-12-28 20:07

mind your own business leave that person alone if you don't want it then shut up, quit whining and move on.

# You know.. — Guest 2006-12-28 21:23

To be honest, if you are dumb enough to buy that, then its your fault. You guys can ***** all you want about how unfair this is to DAX (and it really IS too!), but the fact is that in the market world, your goal is to sell no matter what. "Buyer beware" friends. Its the buyers fault if they couldn`t google "PSP downgrader", you know? After all.. this guy`s just providing a service. No different than some guy waxing cars with wax he didn`t make, you know?

# feel sorry for this people — Guest 2006-12-28 21:39

if any 1 gets their real adress they are in deep trouble.. ;D

like 187 or somtheing heheh.

# simply report them to ebay trust and safety — Guest 2006-12-28 22:46

I just reported all of those auctions to ebay trust and safety, you should do the same. It's very easy!

http://pages.ebay.com/help/policies/duplication-copy-protected-material.html

Shut down the people selling these.

# me — Guest 2006-12-28 23:27

well he is from *****ing sadwell town, west bromwich so it's hardly a suprise is it that the gypo's trying to make money on something that was free.

# so i bet — xche78x 2006-12-29 01:38

he just hope he can fool someone, and i think he probably did and not just someone, out of the billions of humans on the face of the earth, many people will fall for it. sad but true

# afefeaaef — Guest 2006-12-29 02:15

Theres a lot of these things in sweden thought. At the farmers site www.blocket.se

# dumb — Guest 2006-12-29 07:26

If you're dumb enough to buy somthing free off ebay ,well then i hope you're psp bricks.

# Just like.... — Guest 2006-12-29 12:26

This is just like those people selling links on how to get a free PS3, PSP and so on... links to outlet stores, links on how to make a 50" tv, links on how to make money... pretty dumb. but the dumber pays for these.

# what's the problem ?? — Guest 2006-12-30 11:19

i don't think this a problem, since some people are really noobs and don't even know to run HenD (for example). So that the ebay seller sells all the programms include detail manual which help the noobs alot

why must we report them to ebay trust and safety ?? because they are illegal ??? then who are we ?? 99% people here play their PSP with ILLEGAL ISO/CSO

so long

# omg — Guest 2007-01-04 14:19
