PSP Go Price, Goes Back to $200

Last month, Sony brings the PSP-3000’s price to $129.99. Then last Thursday, PSP Go was also marked down to $149.99. However, the new price tag seems that it’s not meant to be.

Three days after the mark down, PSP Go’s price went back to $199.99. Sony did not give any reason for the sudden change, but it is possible that someone pushed the button too early. Good thing, the $150 price never made its way to third-party retailer websites.
