    try amazon
    just type in DS Lite and click on the option that suits you eg what colour your looking for and scroll down to see how much it costs and read what condition its in. when and if you buy and the condition your products in does not mtach the description then you can return it and you get your money back guarnteed. just brought one off amazon for my son, brought it for 89.99 absolutely brilliant it came with the DS Lite (white) with its orignal packaging and all wires (no scrathes!!!!!) plus a box full of essentials for when the kids are on the move especially a protactive case for the DS Lite have a look a think same are still available

    as DS is quite old now - I think it would play the games but I dont think you can buy new anymore but in second hand shops like Game/Gamestation/CEX carries a price in the region of £30, its alot fatter than its successor....the

    DS lite which is basically a slimmer version of the DS and is very popular with the kids; it has been around for 5 years or more has an RRP of £90/100 (after all this time) and has been superceded by the

    DSi which is the same as a DSlite but incorporates a camera so you can take pictures of your friends and include the images in games. It has an RRP of £130, this was succeded by the

    DSi XL, which is a DSi but bigger, with bigger screens and is the latest version and carries an RRP of £150

    there are obviously deals out there to reduce these prices, I got my DS lite for £65 from morrisons approx 18months ago (when the DSi was launched) I expected the DSlite price to reduce because of the new version but it hasn't really, just the occasional deal so I am really chuffed that I got mine for £65

    I had a really good look around a few weeks ago and www.game.co.uk seemed to have the best prices at £89.99 for the console on it's own.
