Check your local Craigslist. I got lucky and found one under 3.60 at an insanely cheap price cause the guy needed the cash. Really nice condition too.
You could try eBay, camping the new listings for cheap ones or mass watching and sniping eBay auctions with 0-1 bids. Obtaining one for sub-$100 should be easy, and I've recently seen one with a grip and 64GB card go for $150 with 1 bid.
Make sure to ask the seller about the firmware version and check the photos/description for the Vita's condition and what's bundled with it; some of them just happen to slip underneath people's attention, but others get ignored for good reason.

Oh wow. Good thing I bought mine a few months ago when it was $175 with a 32GB memory card. Bahahaha.
I am still shocked at how quickly it all happened (Sony quitting the manufacturing of the Vita).
None to be seen anywhere locally new within reasonable distance, let alone reasonable price.
In my mind, the memory cards totally killed the deal for many. Essentially 1990s tactics used in this age of cheap storage. I guess Sony wanted their money back for the supremely better hardware they were offering, but the result in today's market was total failure. Unless of course you count general-purpose phones and tablets with hideously overpriced non-removable fixed memory. Then you can gouge all you want, apparently.
