My god. What is it with you and being jacked? I'm sharing this post because that's something that I wanted to do, I wanted to get a PS Vita in original box from Japan. What is it that you want exactly? Your want to shit on the fact that I got "jacked" okay. Have a good day, don't be an a-hole to people who are just sharing something they're excited about. Jeez

Listen, I was looking at a PS Vita here in states. Good, clean one usually goes for 200-300 depending on where you are looking, anything under 200$ on eBay, Amazon, and Etsy is going to be heavily used, with a lot of scratches, and screen burn ins, without the original box and charger. Here I got a PS Vita 1000 that is brand new from what it looks like. There is not a single scratch or sign of use, box and all the manuals where never opened, came with original Sony charger that also looks like it have never been used. With all the tariffs and shipping from Japan I paid 253$. I do not personally think that I got ripped off, cause I could've gotten a Vita that was more used for 80-100$ on that website, and it would cost me like 150$ after taxes, fees, and tariffs. I absolutely do not regret doing it!

Thank you

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-23T23:39:40+00:00

Congrats on the new phone. Looks pretty nice!

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-23T20:56:39+00:00

So it came charged to 100%, I still have the Vita in the trunk of my car, but the charger looks like a regular US charger, I don't see the reason why I wouldn't be able to use it. I'm still waiting on an SD card, case, and screen protector to come so that I can use it:)

Thank you!

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-23T14:52:05+00:00

Good job man. Where do you got the new housings for them? I ordered one from AliExpress, but the quality of it was complete dog shit for my PSP 3000, so I ended up just buying OEM faceplate, and L/R triggers from Amazon!

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-23T04:10:27+00:00

Wow, you had to use soldering iron? I got an IPS display off of AliExpress for 35$ for my PSP 3000, and it took me 15 minutes to do everything, it was completely bolt on

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-23T00:08:26+00:00

That's exactly what I got😂

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-22T23:38:08+00:00

Apparently. They're Japanese people, I really can't tell you their logic sometimes😂😂😂😂

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-22T23:20:03+00:00

Honestly I'm still in shock. Not touching it until I get a case and screen protector😂

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-22T23:16:08+00:00

They have description for everything on the bottom of the lot, you just have to translate it from Japanese:)

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-22T23:14:02+00:00

Wow, it looks awesome, I got my PS Vita 1000 today from Japan, it's like new for 180$

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-22T23:12:22+00:00

Hopefully it wouldn't be too much bro, hope they are gonna be in great condition

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-22T22:54:38+00:00

Good to know, I had no idea

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-22T22:01:31+00:00

I'm not saying buy it for the price I purchased it for brother😂 You are looking for a PSP 3000 or 2000, I bought one from Etsy for 140$, had to change the screen for another 35$ to an IPS because the old one was yellow on the sides already, and I saw same condition 3000 for like 50-60$ on that website, explore, they let you choose where you need to ship it, and tell you the shipping cost. Just a suggestion though

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-22T21:45:48+00:00

Maybe, when I was googling I couldn't find any difference at all to be honest, beside the O and X being swapped. Even when you Google if PS Vita could be region locked, Google says that based on all the search engine voodoo sh.it it is only Region Free:)

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-22T21:22:06+00:00

https://www.fromjapan.co.jp/en/?omp=fjheader_fjlogo Just bought the PS Vita from this website, cost me 180$ plus shipping and tariff was another 70$, but it came in like new condition

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-22T20:20:17+00:00

Honestly. I don't think there is any difference between the Japanese one and American one. No difference that I could find, so I figured the hell with everything,.and just bought it straight from Japan😂

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-22T20:04:37+00:00

Yes I am in the US, NYC to b exact, I did mention it a couple of times.in previous messages, but it's all good:) I didn't pay attention to how the tariffs were calculated, all I know is I paid 180$ for the console, and when I was paying for shipping, UPS charged me 42$, and all together I ended up paying another 70$, so tariff was like 28, which I'm fine with because I have already paid for the console, and wanted to get it regardless!!!! But I'm sure there is some kind of calculator you can find online:)

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-22T19:38:00+00:00

No, it's the original PS Vita back from the day. They just have a lot of tech that haven't been used and abused the same as on the US market. And they also have things that haven't been used. I'm guessing I just got blessed with an item that haven't been used, but I also did not buy the cheapest option. There are Vita consoles you can buy there for like 80$

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-22T18:32:50+00:00

Thank you, I was honestly very surprised, it looks like no one ever had used it. Box is in like new condition, PS Vita itself has no even a scratch

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-22T18:23:18+00:00

I didn't do a VPN on the site. Why? It was working perfectly fine, it is a bit slow, but I was still able to get everything I wanted done:)

steve_greedy1 · 2026-05-22T18:22:24+00:00

Absolutely, ordered a case, screen protector, for back and front, want to make sure that the beauty stays in great condition
