Any cheaper guys n gals?

Im now able to get one, been looking on electricbirdland, but there site is ofline tonight so will try again in the morning.

Oh and have any of you herd about the different screens used in the PSP?
Apparently the Jap one has a Sharp screen which is supposed to be 1.5 times better than the USA one which is a Samsung? This just eBay crap or is it real?

I heard that was the case at first - Sony Japan changed to Samsung screens because they are cheaper and generally have less dead pixels.

I heard this too, but that JAP units are still being produced with the SHARP screens.

I don't wanna say it too loud though, cos lots of people get very upset.

I wouldn't say that £225 for a PSP Value Pack with Ridge Racer is that well priced, but it certainly is an alternative to the other suppliers, and the 12 month warranty sounds great, but I wouldn't put my faith in it.

FYI:
Online retailer ElectricBirdLand was today ordered to cease selling imported PSP consoles with immediate effect after Sony Computer Entertainment won an injunction in the high court.

Sony's application for the interim injunction claimed that EBL had infringed trade marks and was therefore selling PSPs illegally.

...Morelle then asked the judge if he is permitted to offer replacements to consumers returning faulty PSPs, claiming that ten per cent of units he sells are sent back.

Sony responded by asking the judge to rule that Morelle send any returned PSPs on to them, offering to supply his customers with replacement consoles after September 1. The judge ruled that this was not required, but said that the retailer could return to court, giving 24 hours notice to Sony, should any such issues arise.

from My Memory (I have ordered from them before no problem)

Not sure if this is the best deal around at the mo or not but it seemed good to me :cool:

So have you had any trouble with this company? They seem to be the safest bet to me now.... every other site is either not selling them or is some dodgy back street setup

ok so I've ordered one, lets see what happens!

Actually works out cheaper to get the £179.99 Value pack without game, then buy game on ebay for £15

Cant wait
