If you have a tight budget and really want to buy cheap PSP, “PSP Go” system, you should try to consider purchasing a secondhand from online shops. Sometimes people just get bored with their “PSP 3000″ or receive a new “PSP Go” as a gift which they already have, so they sell them at a cheap price through online shops like eBay and Amazon. eBay auction is a good place to buy inexpensive PSP, they start at low starting bid and if only few people bids and you’re the last one to place the bid after the auction expires then you get it very cheap. Make sure to check the type of package before bidding, check the product description, less additional options included, the cheaper it gets. Of course basic package is always the cheapest. Also, check for the shipping cost, Amazon offers free shipping for some items but most of the time the tag price you see on online shops doesn’t include shipping cost.
You can also find some cheap PSP for sale at YouTube, some people upload a video of their PSP together with information how to contact them. Another source of less expensive PSP is your local pawnshop or game shop. Pawn shops are notorious for selling cheap merchandise. They usually pay them for half the price and sell them for a slight mark up, and if you get really lucky you might get it really cheap like my friend who actually got one in a perfect working condition. Just make sure that the unit works, try it for yourself and check for visible damage before purchasing.
When searching for a secondhand PSP from online shops just check the product details. “Used” items sometimes “mean good as new or sealed”, maybe the owner have it as a gift and don’t want to use it so they sell it cheaper than the retail price. Finding PSP or “PSP Go” console on sale will depend on whether you prefer to shop in person, by catalog, or are comfortable shopping online. If you’re willing to take the time and effort to search on the Internet and sort through numerous retailers, you can almost always find every model on sale somewhere. Remember to compare shipping costs when you compare prices. Often a PSP or “PSP Go” console on sale will not be the best deal once you take shipping and or taxes into account on the final price.
