Okay so I know eBay would be a good place but i dont trust it and never have, ill use it for cheap buys such as phone cases etc.

Im after a PSP as i wanna visit older games such as 3rd Birthday, FF Crisis Core etc

I find quite a few PSPs on Gumtree and FB Marketplace, with some people asking for £30 with a few games and some people asking £80.

I would highly, highly recommend getting a 3003 instead of a launch 1003 model for the vastly better screen. Unless you're modding in which case I don't know!

Be warned but I think that T3B is quite expensive on disk when I last checked.

There is also always CEX but expect to pay more towards the £80 but you do get a guarantee.

Thanks, Last model I owned which would have been release was 2000, prior to that i had the original launch model the fat one (also best built one from what i remember), modding im not too fussed for now, I was back in the day but i suspect modding scene on it would be dead now any way

The best PSP is a vita.
Sure you can pick one up locally from facebook marketplace

I had a Vita and disagree, it's best hardware but I have better memories of the original psp

I have had a look at CeX but most seem out of stock

There is a website called amibay which sells old retro stuff although mainly Amigas. They also sell old pads etc, might be worth a punt.

Will have a look, cheers
