We do not hold this one on the shelf. We raise the order with our wholesaler, it comes to us, we check it and we pack it, within 7 business days. Then 2 to 5 business days with USPS.
Business days, so weekends do not count. Public holidays can push the later date out. Shipping to Canada adds roughly 5 to 15 business days and customs can extend that, so we do not promise a date there.

Email usThe full rundown
The CECH-2501B is specific enough that a near-miss lens will not work properly in it. This one is engineered for that model, so the fit and the ribbon routing are right.
What this fixes
- Discs rejected after spinning up
- Lag and hanging on load screens
- Freezing partway through a game or a film
- A drive that reads some discs and not others
Before you order
Check the model number on the sticker underneath the console. It must read CECH-2501B. If it is any other CECH-2xxxx, buy the general CECH-2xxx lens instead - we list both.
Fits
- PlayStation 3 Slim, CECH-2501B
Does not fit
Any other CECH-2xxxx revision, and all fat PS3 models.

Common questions
Why is this model listed on its own? Because the 2501B differs enough that fitting the generic lens causes problems. Matching the model number saves a return.
Is soldering needed? No, but the ribbon is delicate and the laser is static-sensitive.
