Wholesale

Wholesale Supply from Japan

We are Norakura Co., Ltd., a refurbisher based in Tokyo, Japan. We source Sony PSP-3000 and Nintendo Game Boy Advance SP consoles in Japan, repair and test them in-house and with our partner technicians, and supply them to retro game shops and resellers overseas.

We currently supply around 200 units a month to an overseas retailer. Our monthly capacity is limited, so we work with a small number of partners at a time.

What we supply

PSP-3000 (refurbished)

Japanese units (region-free). Tested and repaired as needed. Console only (battery and charger not included). Available in two grades:

  • Grade A — No screen yellowing. The LCD may have been replaced. Colors: Black, Red, Blue, White, Silver, Pink.
  • Grade B — The screen has light to moderate yellowing that does not affect gameplay. Units with heavy yellowing are not sold as Grade B. Works exactly the same as Grade A. Colors: the six colors above, and lots may also include other PSP-3000 colors.

Colors are mixed at random within a lot.

Grade B — The most yellowing we accept as Grade B

Both photos show the same white image on screen, taken under the same lighting.

Game Boy Advance SP AGS-001 (refurbished)

Japanese units (region-free), fitted with a new aftermarket shell. Console only. Colors: Pearl Blue, Midnight Blue, Black, Pink, Silver (mixed at random within a lot).

Parts replaced during refurbishment (for example the LCD or the shell) may be aftermarket. We never label units as a different model than they are.

How we test

Every unit is tested at least twice: once when it arrives and again after repair. Units that fail a check go back for repair before they can be shipped. We record the serial number of every unit we ship.

Each PSP-3000 is checked for:

  • Power and charging
  • All buttons and the analog stick
  • Screen
  • UMD reading, including abnormal noise during reading

Each GBA SP is checked for:

  • Power and charging
  • All buttons
  • Screen
  • Sound
  • Cartridge reading

Two pricing options

You can choose one of two options for every order:

  • With 7-Day DOA Cover — Defects reported within 7 days of delivery are credited against your next order after we receive and confirm the unit. See the terms below.
  • Final Sale – Best Price — If you don't need the DOA cover, we can offer a lower price. No returns or credits after delivery. Every unit is still tested twice before shipping. Contact us for a quote.

Ordering and pricing

  • Minimum order: 10 units per product.
  • Quotes: Prices depend on the product, grade, quantity, pricing option and destination. Please contact us for a quote.
  • Price changes: Our costs for sourcing consoles and parts, and for shipping, change through the year, so our prices can change too. For long-term partners we can agree on a fixed price for a set period, after which it is reviewed.
  • Lead time: About one month from order confirmation. When stock is available, we may ship sooner.
  • Payment: Payment in full before shipping. We will request payment once your order is ready.

7-Day DOA Cover — terms

  • Report within 7 days: Please inspect every unit and report any problem within 7 days of delivery.
  • Video proof: For each unit, send one continuous video, without cuts, that shows the serial number and then the problem on the same unit. We check every claim against our shipping records.
  • Returns: Once we approve a claim, please keep the unit until you have several, then send them back together. We will send a prepaid return label for the approved serial numbers. We credit each unit after we receive it and confirm the fault.
  • Cosmetic issues: For PSP-3000 Grade A and GBA SP, noticeable scratches reported within 7 days with photos are credited at $10 per unit, without returning the unit. Grade B pricing already reflects cosmetic condition, so cosmetic credits do not apply to Grade B.
  • Not covered: claims made more than 7 days after delivery, units returned by your customers, unsold stock, units damaged after delivery, opened or modified, units whose serial number does not match our records, and units sent back without our approval.
  • Credit or refund: Approved claims are credited against your next order. If there is no next order, we refund within 14 days.

For both pricing options, damage that happens in transit is handled through a claim with the carrier.

Shipping and payment

  • United States: We ship by FedEx with duties and taxes included (DDP), so there are no extra fees on delivery. We send you an invoice through our store.
  • Other countries: We ship by FedEx. Prices exclude import duties and VAT/GST, which you pay on import (DAP). We send an invoice, and you pay by bank transfer via Payoneer.
  • We are currently unable to ship to Germany.
