AliExpress only has a handful of them for sale, and just in limited quantities. It's been sold out on RetroMimi's website for a very long time. There was a spark of hope when I found a handful of them on Shopee in gigantic quantities, but the spark was snuffed when I discovered they only ship within Asia. That was on the Philippines section of Shopee. There's only one company selling the PocketGo on the Signapore section (which apparently ships to the US), but it's got several hundreds of them.

I have two PocketGo V1s right now, the other one being a backup, and I'd like to be able to buy the handheld again if something happens to mine. You'd think because the handheld is open source that they'd be a ton of them available in large quantities across multiple sites...

EDIT:
Never Mind. I discarded both my PocketGos and replaced them with two copies of the Powkiddy V90. It runs on the same CFW as the PocketGo, but:
1. It's shaped like a GBA SP, so it flips and closes like a laptop, which I always liked about the SP.
2. Its battery can be easily replaced, and doesn't require you to take the whole system apart like the PocketGo does.
3. It has L2 and R2 buttons (The PocketGo doesn't), thus I can play PS1 games much more conveniently.
You can easily buy it on the official Powkiddy website, and tons of sellers on AliExpress carry them at a decent price.
