Wanted: PSP

My boyfriend has decided he wants a PSP for Christmas and reckons he has seen them for around £150, but I have searched and can't find any that cheap!
Wondering if anyone has recently bought one and best place to get a good deal. Not too bothered about games bundles as he wants Star Wars Lego which I will probably buy separately anyway.

Any suggestions? :)

    Forgot to ask i'm looking out at the moment for my daughter who wants a white one for her birthday.Would the value pack be alot better and i'm thinking of the memory thingy,would she need that to save games or does the PSP come with a small amount of memory that you can save onto built in?

    By the way Emma there's a Pink model out on 27th October if you're interested in that;)

    Currys are selling it for £149 along with a game, if I remember rightly its F1.
    Toys r us also have some very good deals on, but they are showing out of stock over the net, they r worth checking out though.

    Thank you jbatista and Dalkirst that's really helpful :)
    Don't think he'd be too chuffed if I got him the pink one haha.
    I hadn't even thought about accessories, I'm glad I started saving early this year!!

    No Probs Emma D If you buy from currys you can get 5% off using code NHS192, or if you spend over £200 use PERK20.
    Hope theses help.

    See THIS thread for some good offers from HMV (PSP+Accesory Pack + Choice of game for £150) and Virgin Megastores (Gigapack for £179.99)

    Not sure if the offers are still on though, so a bit of investigating required by phoning your local store.

    Concerning memory - The base pack comes with NO memory card which you need to save your game saves.

    The Value pack comes with a 32mb Card
    The Giga Pack comes with a 1Gb Card

    1gb Cards go for £25 Delivered Buy It Now on ebay, although obviously fake cards they seem to work perfectly.

    HTH

    Cheers
