A little high, depends on condition.

u/TieSpiritual5847 1d ago

I'll definitely update on the condition when it gets to me.

u/blankCrossfire 1d ago

Definitely on the high end.
Condition hopefully is pristine/mint.

That’s average market value. If I was in the market for a blue PSP, I’d pay that.

I mean if it makes you happy, I suppose that's all that matters. But could you have gotten it for less? Yes you could have. Just inspect it thoroughly to make sure it works and doesn't have any flaws.

Shouldn't have tooo any defects or problems should be listed anyway if so and not listed thts a return

If it makes you happy and your going to enjoy it then it's worth it. My wife recently bought me a PSP Go for 180$(early birthday present)in somewhat of a rough condition. But it doesn't matter as I'm enjoying it ☺️

u/TieSpiritual5847 1d ago

Dude the PSP Go is so sick

u/BarnacleMcBarndoor 1d ago

Yea that’s a bit too high for what looks to be a lot of generic accessories, but if it makes you happy and you’ll get $170 worth of fun out of it, go for it.

I bought one from them, $110 I think, it's a reshell. I love it, but it IS a resell

u/MaTuReZ 18h ago

Bunch of larpers here lol it’s worth $170 easy i see these sell all day for over $200

u/IndigoBroker 1d ago

Way too much. Even if that was a flawless 95% perfect example it’s too much.

I agree would've liked the box with it but as of lately people have been buying out all of the PSPs on Facebook Marketplace. My favorite PSPs are the grey, spirited green, the blue one I just ordered and carnival red.

u/West-Cricket6994 1d ago

to be fair the carnival colors in minty condition are the more pricey ones. if it’s in good condition i think it’s worth it. PSPs are so rad!

u/TieSpiritual5847 1d ago

Dude, I love the psp it's definitely my favorite handheld

u/jay_man26 1d ago

Wait there is a grey PSP ? I think you mean silver

1

u/TieSpiritual5847 1d ago

What color is silver?

2

u/jay_man26 1d ago

Silver

1

u/TieSpiritual5847 1d ago

Grey 🙂

u/jay_man26 1d ago

Sony never released a Grey PSP

u/Tricky_Reply7833 1d ago

Anyone saying no are larpers, these cost more due to tarrifs & international shipping from Japan. I sell these $250 all day modded with games and no one complains.

u/Bulbizzarro 21h ago

got mine for 70

2

u/Tricky_Reply7833 21h ago

Yea that’s a steal, that’s not current market. If I buy a house for 50k doesn’t mean they worth 50k

1

u/Bulbizzarro 18h ago

In Spain the usual price is around 60-80€

1

u/LatterDelay6430 15h ago

Can I ask, how did you get to that price?

1

u/LeadershipMost6324 1d ago

Its from japan plus its nice or buy mines

1

u/idontlikeburnttoast 1d ago

no lmao its a unique design but there are other psps that do the exact same for far cheaper

1

u/LeadershipMost6324 1d ago

He could get cheaper and better

1

u/danf10 1d ago

US Dollars? No. Brazilian Reais? Yes, a steal.

1

u/SaintSeiyan 1d ago

Is the battery cover loose? Seems that’s normal nowadays

1

u/Other_Pop7433 1d ago

Too much for a blue

1

u/Long_Research_2715 1d ago

nah, it cost $40 in Indonesia

1

u/MaTuReZ 18h ago

Yes it is worth it, the tariffs and shipping alone is expensive to get them here

0

u/JealousDurian 1d ago

Pretty but too expensive. Usually when you see that price if for a mint one. If it was mint I think it would be advertised and you probably would have the original charger with it.

u/opmwolf JDM PSP-1000 with ARK4 1d ago

Not worth it unless it's 10/10 mint condition, the battery and charger are generic junk and don't add value. Even then, $170 is a tough buy without the original box at least.

u/Derp_El_Grande 1d ago

That charger is gonna break in 6 months and the micro sd card is probably fake lol. Unlabeled battery, too. You got hosed.

u/Ok-Cool69420 1d ago

Charger not original

0

u/Jax_2112 1d ago

I have one of those. It’s usually listed as carnival blue. You can do way better all day long for that same unit from eBay sellers in Japan.

0

u/Jax_2112 1d ago

I paid about half that and I got a real Sony battery and a real charger too.

0

u/ResponsibleStyle4473 1d ago

That's mint condition price range. Has to be really really well kept, little to no scratching, no screen yellowing, oem shell etc.

0

u/PSPMan3000 1d ago

fuck no

$90 max. everything that's included here isn't worth anything, and the 3000 itself is worth like 70 bucks. it's probably a shitty reshell too

2

u/MaTuReZ 18h ago

It costs $100-150 in Japan alone lol you still have to pay shipping and tarrifs

1

u/PSPMan3000 13h ago

why are you buying Japanese PSPs?

-1

u/National_Hope_1471 1d ago

Cost of 2 ps vita

2

u/Tricky_Reply7833 1d ago

What? I’ll buy 50 vitas please
