trying to get ahead on xmas shopping...

[Corry]

...and I Have a question...I think for my boyfriend this year, I'm gonna get him one of those Playstation Portables (havne't totally decided yet), and they are in the $200 (or slightly less) range...can anyone tell me the best place to get comething like that? Is there anywhere (reputable) that is especially low priced for things such as this?

Oh...and same question for the V-tech V-smile...wanna get one for my neice.

Try Amazon.com or play.com, they are the best places on the net, and very reliable I believe.

And corry, arent they around $300?

 

[Corry]

No...$200. I wouldn't pay $300. So far the cheapest I've found it $189...but I've really only just started looking.

 

[Artemis]

Thats odd, thats about the same as it is in UK.

You can get a psp for about £150, so I would have thought double...who is doing it for that cheap?

 

[Corry]

Holy crap, they're $249 on Amazon!

 

[Artemis]

That sounds about right, they should be about that price...

 

[Corry]

And play.com is UK.

I thought US$200 seemed a little bit cheap as well corry. They're $400 here in Australia. :shock: I was gonna get one too, for my dad, until I saw the price. Eeeek! Might have to wait until next year for that pressie.

Gawsh... I havent even started thinking about christmas pressies yet. I've still got to get through a few birthdays and another wedding even before october's over. :-(
Good Luck!

hmm...dunno...

 

[Corry]

I've found it for $189, but I'm unfamiliar with the website, and new on ebay, I'm finding them for $199.

Found one on ebay for $130, but it still has a day on it, and I'm not sure I have the money just yet...I'll put it on my watch list anyway!

i wouldnt trust it if you are getting it for less than 250$ american dollars.

you will be missing vital components if you get it cheaper.

You can check the company out on the better business bureau website and find out what kinds of problems they have and compare that to a dealer you know would be good...

 

[Corry]

OK...so...I'm REEEALLY thinking about this...does anyone have a PSP. or know anyone that does? And what is a good, reliable review site for this sort of thing?
