Remind me to never order anything from Play-Asia...

This was $550 this morning...

I don't know if it's the price that worries me, or the fact that there are people that are desperate enough for one to actually pay that price.

They keep increasing the price as the day goes on...

I mean, if people are willing to pay it then great for them, but why would they keep doing this?

Even more in countries like France where you get a 20.6% VAT, and the VAT is an obligation because UPS (the sole shipping methode iirc for psp in lik and play) does declare everything to customs.

that means... $758,574 (not shipped of course, would be more than 800 with shipping) it s a bargain... no ? no ? ... errr... no....

It's like they've never seen a handheld gaming system before.

I mean... yeah, it looks nice and all, but $600+ for a PSP and a copy of Ridge Racer?

I'm not going to judge a person for what he/she decides to spend his/her money on, but fuck man... wait a month or two and save yourself a nice chunk of change - or is playing a "new" system for you that important?

(Answer: It appears that it is.)

I'd like to see the expression of the guy that buys one of those at that price and gets a faulty system

I posted that price increase crap form Play-Asia here earlier after I checked out their bogus PSP news area. They are so full of shit saying the market is causing the price increase and not them. They are obviously money grubbing sons of bitches. I see Play-Asia and Lik-Sang losing alot of their credibility as importers due to all this PSP hoopla.

What happened to the price going down little by little? I've never seen a system increase in price like this several days after release, especially one that has such a fucked up high price in the first place. To only increase that price further is fucking ludicrous...

Okay, this is just over the deep end now.

The first few prices increases were already bullshit, but are there even words left this kind of stunt?

It's $629.00 now when I checked.

Lucky I cancelled my order from them...

I was hoping that they would reduce the price as the days goes on, and it turns out like this...
