Buying a Sony PS Vita via the Multiply Marketplace

Sometime last month, the folks from Multiply gave me access to the YugaTech account that was earlier registered by someone else and used as a gadget store. I thought it was also time for me to set up a store there for my used gadgets.

A few weeks ago, they’ve also asked me to hold a give-away to my readers where we will give away Php5,000 worth of shopping money on Multiply.

But before we do that, I had to check out and try the Marketplace myself. So, I scouted for a number of gadget stores on Multiply and looked for a gadget I still don’t have. The target — the Sony PS Vita. The price — Php12,500.

All this time, I was wondering how the Multiply Shopping Cart works when most of the sellers I see there are posting items in the form of a photo gallery.

After checking out the cheapest price for the PS Vita, I contacted the seller so I can order it via the shopping cart and use the discount voucher that Multiply gave to me. Widget City was selling it for Php12,500 (WiFi-only, US version).

The whole process was quite easy and fast — I was done in under 30 seconds and paid immediately via Paypal. Anyway, I’m hoping to get that PS Vita tomorrow and be able to write a review later.

Okay. We’ll also give away the same Php5,000 worth of eGC from Multiply to our readers. Here’s what you need to do in order to join.

1) Check out the Multiply Marketplace and look for any item (gadgets I guess) that’s worth around Php5,000. The item needs to be part of the shopping cart and not just a photo gallery entry.

2) Copy and paste the link of your desired item in the comments and tell us why you badly want it. That’s it!

Multiply will help choose the lucky winner who will win the Php5,000 shopping credits. Contest starts now and ends March 25 31. If you chose an item over Php5,000, you’ll need to fork out the difference and have to spend the voucher by March 31.

Start shopping here now!

    Kung manalo man ako nito, ibibigay ko po ‘to sa aking kasintahan sapagkat pangarap niya po magkaroon ng e-book reader o kaya kahit anong tablet PC upang makapagbasa ng libro kahit saan. Hilig niya po magbasa ng mga nobela.

    This is the best quality headphones for this price. Better than Beats by Dr. Dre Solo for just (more than) half the price. The design is simple yet striking.

    I am currently writing my thesis and I badly need a tablet so I can read my reference materials wherever I am without having to print them. I hope you can grant my wish. Thank you and more power Yuga and Multiply!! :)

    I want an iPod Touch and it’s my birthday by the end of the month :D

    Since I can’t decide whether to get a digicam, a smartphone, a gaming device or a PMP, I chose this one so I can have it all, in a price (less the 5k disc if I get to win) that I can afford.

    The 32GB would have been good but I know I won’t be able to afford the excess charge. :)

    I want a new iPod because I’ve missed listening to music on the go since I lost my iPod Touch a few weeks ago. I’m a music lover and life for me without a daily dose of music is a little bit dull and boring.

    Ako ay isang frustrated musikero, at sa hirap ng buhay ay umaasa lamang sa mga hiram na gamit. bilang isang gitarista ay importante ang ganitong digital effects upang medyo maayos naman kahit papaano ang tunog.

    at isang phone naman para sa aking kapatid na nanakawan. simple lang yung phone pero magagamit na rin.

    alam ko mukhang maiinvalidate ang entry ko dahil dalawang items. pero baka sakaling makalusot dahil nasa 5k parin naman ang price nito. hehe

    I chose a celfone because there are 3 reasons behind it.. 1.) my mom requested us me and my sister to buy 1 celfone for her kasi di na niya macontact ung papa ko everytime magpunta si papa sa church every sunday. kasi gusto nyang magdate sila ng papa ko after magpunta ng church heheheh :X ..2.) sirang sira na ung celfone ni mama kaya nagrequest sya hehe super old model pa ung 1100 black and white.. supposed to be bibilhan namin sya nung myphone na celfone na worth 1.5k since yan lang muna budget ko (inipon ng estudyante).. dahil may opportunity naman na ganito kung manalo eh di napalucky ko if hindi ok lang rin at least nakasali hehehe… 3.) i forgot to bought a book for my mother (a princess diana book) … kasi nasanay na sya bnibigyan ko sya ng book every bday and christmas eh this christmas di ako nakabili kasi kinapos sa pera kaya yun di nakabili.. ung celfone nalang sana igift ko hopefully manalo.. naiingit kasi siya sa celfone namin …

    Thanks for this opportunity! :)

    I really want this phone for my mother as late christmas gift.I was not able to get her a phone as promised last december since my own phone was stolen. She never had a phone nor a laptop so this gift would probably nice for her. She usually just ask her students or co-teachers to do the texting for her. She is a teacher and many times people will ask her not having a phone so when i saw this update from your blog, I took a chance and hopefully you can grant this wish for my mom.

    My mom has been using the same phone for the last 6 years. The screen is cracked, it’s battery runs out every few minutes, and it’s in a pretty bad shape overall. It’s almost her birthday, so this phone will be a great gift for her.

    Well, i’m a bit confused on the rules because it says that the item must be around PhP5,000. Is it exactly Php5,000? i found a dslr lens over multiply that is exactly Php5,000 but can’t think of a reason why i want it coz i dont even own a dslr camera. Anyways I chose this gadget coz i also dont own a digital camera, what i use to take photos is my handy Nokia 5800xm.
    Like my phone am a great fan of Carl Zeiss lenses coz it takes great photos plus its a 14mp camera would love to own one in the future to capture my little treasures(my 3 wonderful kids) and by the way “IT’S A SONY!”

    i want this gaming mouse so bad, i want to use it on MMO games like dragon nest and forsaken world with the extended mouse buttons, i can use skills without pressing the numbers on my keyboard and focus on dodging mobs and players on pvp.

    Noon pa po, gustong gusto ko na magkaroon ng android tablet dahil malaki ang pagkagusto ko sa Android OS. Dahil nga sa pagkagusto ko na yan, napilitan akong bumili ng china Apad, kaso nasayang lang ang pera ko na nagkakahalaga din na P4990.00 . Kaya ito ang napili kong mabili sa Multiply.com. Ang Ainol NOVO 7 Paladin.
