I tried the suggestion of putting a "-" at the beginning of the barcode, and go figure, it worked.

My gosh, it actually worked and now I see the problem. The barcode field requires 23 characters for it to pass, but the PS3 Slim only has 22 characters (counting the two dashs). 

Thanks guys! I sent a note to the administration. They have been trying to figure out the problem for weeks, but with no luck.

You should have put (Example: -CE000000000) That worked for me.

Re: Ps3 barcode?

No luck for me  I tried putting the dash in front  of the serial and i tried typing it out in different ways, making sure there was 23 characters. I still keep getting the "Barcode is Invalid" error  I bought mine brand new from Kmart.  I live in NJ.  It's not an import, and I know it wasn't returned to the store because I work at that Kmart and the moment we received a new shipment of PS3's i immediately bought it  Any help or suggesstions would be great.  I've already signed up for a PSN ID through the PS3, does it register through that?

Yes and that's probably why you can't register it here.

Re: Ps3 barcode?

I have a 250GB Slim PS3.

 

The website is **bleep**ed in the head for some reason.

 

but anyways, put the dash AFTER the code ( CGXXXXXXXXX- ) no spaces.

 

That JUST worked for me.

 

Hope this helps anyone who was as confused as me!
