Modchips.. Bricked PSPs.. let me help :)

[Bluecat]

im all good i have ma friends psp en its all cracked and looks lik dudu so il keep it around then wen i buy the mod chip il install it in the messed up one first then if it works il put it on mine

It was actually a question for Mike
Just wondering, if you're offerning this fitting service would you offer some kind of guarantee?

I have my trusty v1.5 from way back then, but if this chip proves to be reliable I will buy a spanking new white PSP and get it modded - fantastic. Johnny 1.5 will find himself promptly on ebay......

I am in the UK and am definately interested in this but I need to know that it will actually work first.

I would love this, actually. Give us another post when you start this service and I'll contact you then. ^^

Ok to answer a couple of questions.

I'll be starting the chipping service when

a) I've modded my own psp + 2 other from family members. I shall do my own first so that if I screw it up, I've only got myself to blame!
b) There is a good supply of modchips. I'm hoping MMC can do me a bulk deal

If I total your psp when I mod it I will replace/fix it at no cost to you. Obviously if you send me a bricked psp and i cant fix it then I cant give you a brand new psp!

For overseas people, the shipping isnt the issue, its the customs charges that I will have to pay. Typicall a PSP brought into the UK will cost me about £15 in taxes - so unless you want to carry that burden, it isnt cost effective Sorry

Thanks for all your support!

If you want to get "on the list" drop me a pm or gmail me to mikedx

Custom charges can somewhat be avoided. You claim the item as $10-15. But this can also backfire if something happens.

Those who live in the US, wait till the chip is officially out. There will be numerous US installers/resellers. I have a surprise up my sleeve. Be sure to check my website once the release of the chip has arrived.

does anyone think that sites will start selling psp's with the mod chip already installed in it

I would imagine that people will start selling PSPs with the mod chip installed on ebay.

Selling a modchip on eBay or having it installed onto the PSP is against eBay policies. Having the modchip installed with another firmware is another no-no.

hey, could anyone give a quick rundown of what the mod chip will actually do for simpler people like me? ie allow you to play the likes of outrun on v1.5? allow you to run diffrent firmwares of your choice? info would be much appreciated thanx.

Defo intrested mate. im really scared to place a solder anywhere near my psp. This is a great thing you're doin mate. Ive got a version 2.6 ceramic psp. Would you be able to do a bundle like with a UP Chip and Fitting and Return. If so whats the price in the UK

[MikeDX]

Assuming everything goes well, its going to be about £75 in total for chip + fitting + return post. I will know more when I get my first psp chips in and see how long it takes to do them. Hopefully I'll be able to do quite a few. I'm trying to keep the cost down to a minimum as I know if I wanted it done, I'd want it to be cheap!
