Lik-Sang is still the cheapest place to get it. Works out at £154 I believe.

yes - if you don't get hit with a tax bill from customs!!!

I actually bought 4 from the states (https://www.modchipsource.com), 2 weeks ago. The prices were $270 each including delivery (£149), and a 1.5 firmware. The delivery took 2 days (no kidding, ordered tuesday night and arrived thursday am via fedex).

Just checked and they've bumped the prices to $350 with delivery.

However you can downgrade the fireware (Internal software) on UK versions.

So that you can play backup/homebrew games. Which cost a lot less than high street prices.

See previously posted entries on this thread. (EDIT SEE BELOW)
