Yeah, ebay and Amazon have some great prices, its just all about having a good eye. I'm sure not every GBA SP online is fine tuned to corrupt your save data, that's most likely a problem unique to yourself.
I really need a new GBA SP. Mine's getting old, and I really want the back-lit one, I have the front-lit screen. Also known as, the AGS-001 and not the newer AGS-101 models. I still have a whole list of GBA games I never got, but really am interested in. Too bad Gamestop basically stopped holding onto them, same with Gamecube games. I've had to resort to ebay and Amazon.

? Maybe you just ran into someone selling you a faulty product. I've bought lots of stuff from Amazon and ebay and they've worked fine for me.
no its i buy factory seaaled pokemon emerald and leafgreen and mario & luigi superstar saga and they always delete my file i think the battery is dead
@mieu-fire, if you mean the games, yes Pokemon games tend to do that. That's not because of ebay or Amazon though, that can happen if you buy them from Gamestop or even to an old copy of your own. Luckily I have all the GBA Pokemon games, so I'm not looking for them.
It's not a unique problem. You just have to be really careful, and I suggest eBay over Amazon, since then you can find ones that use detailed pictures of the actual products, as well as their return policies.
I'd have to choose the DS Lite over the GBA SP, as the DS Lite will play all the GBA games (in single-player only) plus the awesome library of DS games, and I think GBA games never looked better than on the DS Lite. But the GBA SP was awesome for the time. My SP's built-in light is nowhere near as bright today as it used to be, but my old DS Lite has held up perfectly and it's what I use to play GBA games.

I really liked the Game Boy Color. It made it much easier to see the Donkey Kong Land games and gave us the colorized version of Zelda: Link's Awakening. If I had a GBA, I'd probably vote for that though. Crazy library with that backwards compatibility.

Nobody likes the Game.COM? Hell! It doesnt even like itself.
I'm going to say the GBC, it really dominated when Nintendo went Color, in my opinion it had better games than even the GBA itself! It was the peak of my childhood.

gotta say Gameboy Colour . Took two batteries compared to GB's 4, gave colour to old games and new games (Though there werent many) were nice looking, and the infra red port was dynamite for a wee Mystery Gift.
It also came in snazzy colours, and didn't feel like they were just cashing in. There's an art to doing that.
