Anyone know where to find brand new in-box US PSP's for under $600?

Post by /psp »

A few years ago I got a silver PSP, I don't wanna get a japan-brand PSP as the Circle to X button swap is a big deal to me, I have bought used a few times and there was always an issue. When I receive a system I usually want it in mint condition and when I buy a used PSP there's always a problem with a button, a small scratch on the screen, slight corrosion on the battery slot, USB port is broken, etc. So I try to buy brand new even if it's expensive.
My current PSP has an issue where the R button is pressing down on its own, I am not techy enough to even attempt to open it, but would be willing to take it to a tech place in the US that would fix it for me. I bought this one brand new a few years back (2018) for about $400, so spending far more then that is practically out of the question.
I realize I'm kinda screwed here, I checked Google and eBay, the brand new ones in the US for a basic 3000 model cost like $1000 from what I've seen which is ridiculous, especially since only 5 years ago I bought it for less then half that. Any ideas? I am absolutely not confident to open this thing up and fix it and I don't have any friends or family that could do it either, my options are literally pay someone to fix it or buy a brand new PSP.
