Well safe if you pre-o'd with Play-Asia. I ordered with Lik's and I bet they are gonna jack the price. That price jacking really chaps my ass, what a crock of shit, how dare they pull that shit on people. I just knew I should have pre ordered with Play Asia, Lik's, and NCSX, that way I could have had a better chance with one of them if the others jacked the price. Be sure to post what you paid with Play-asia, that way if Lik's jacks the price I would like to rub it in their face that Play's is selling it at what they said they would.

Mine was pretty much the same price as yours (value pack+game) at NCSX. I sure hope they don't jack up the price, because sadly I can't really afford any more than $350.

Problem with Paly-Asia saying they will honor the advertised price is when will that happen? Lik-Sang says the same thing, that you'll keep your place in the pre-order line for when the price comes down, but when will that be? By then we'll be able to walk down to Target and get one for $199...Defeats the whole point of pre-ordering so long in advance.

Well, its sad that these companies value a quick buck over potential return customers.

Snoop, you preordered in May?

If I were those guys, I would say you are a loyal customer and ship it out for the advertised price.

Fuck shortages, they have the units, and they want the most money that they can milk out of someone.

Exactly...They obviously could care less about loyal, return customers, who have bought more than their share of shit from them. They'd rather get a quick buck from a new customer who probably has never bought from them before, and probably never will again.

Yeah, I pre-ordered May 12th I think it was, right after they opened the "special pre-orders" for the PSP after it was announced at E3. I knew demand would be high so I placed the order as soon as it was allowed, and I get nothing to show for it, but emails full of bullshit excuses... :oh_no:

I really do feel bad for you.

I'm actually sending thm an email right now re: you and a few other members.

They should honor the price if you preordered that far in advance.

EDIT: I can't send them an email, because I'm not a member.

Thanks anyways for trying Tonk. I'm still waiting on the email they are supposed to send anytime now wanting me to confirm that I do in fact want the PSP but at their "new" price, which of course I'll be declining emphaticaly. Hopefully others will do the same and then they'll be forced to lower the price, but I seriously doubt that will happen. There are alot of dumbasses out there who will get it no matter the cost, which totally ruins it for everyone else...

Sad shit. I've had a pre-order with NCSX since september and had a back-up at Lik-Sang.

As for gratitude we're 6,000 miles away from Lik-Sang and they could hardly give a fuck, right now it looks as though NCSX might be delaying all shipments until the price floats down to normal.
