Play.com | Play.com, the online entertainment retailer has today announced that it will suspend the sale of US PlayStation Portables to UK customers, pending discussions with Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE).

Simon Perrée, from Play.com, said: "We have decided to suspend the sale of US PSP's on Play.com until we have had chance to discuss the UK import situation with SCEE and see what plans they have for the launch of the European version."

"The internet makes the games market a global industry, we have been aware for some time that many other e-tailers are supplying US PSP consoles and software to UK consumers. We fully support the UK software industry, and have taken this decision to demonstrate our position, and hope that other e-tailers follow suit" added Mr Perrée.
