If it's broken, sell it. Use the money to buy a new Vita. Someday, you can afford to buy another PSP 1000 in great condition. As PSP emulation continues to improve, the desire for real PSPs will fall. Legitimate buyers will move onto Vita when their favorite games are ported to the PSN shop, further reducing the need to keep their older consoles around.
Not all PSP gamers are connected via nostalgia, so their old PSPs will end up on the used market. Search ebay often, most one-off sellers don't sell on Amazon.
Here's one selling for 45 USD Buy-It-Now with free shipping.

...but please convince me to sell my PSP fat?
here's the story: i have had this PSP 1000 for years, got it from my brother who had brought it oversea and given it to me. Time goes on, and it is now in pretty bad condition, with drifting analog, jammed buttons and spring door, etc.... all the minor problems become a big pain in the ass. I try to fix them all myself, just to see that i can't, so i waste a good amount of dosh (that can be used to buy gifts for you guys :P) for repairing services and surprisingly, they didn't solve the problem.
So now, i'm considering selling it and saving up for a Vita, or a 3000 at least. A Fat in bad condition could only be sold for
$50 at best, if i'm lucky, but that's a start. Yet, the problem is that i'm just so damn attached to the thing (all that nostalgia man), that i feel really hesitant to make the deal, so i wonder if any of you could convince me out of this BS.
TL;DR : broken psp, want to sell the thing and get a better one but to attached to it, need someone to talk me out of it.
