I just recently bought a 3DS XL from Amazon for the same reason. Bought it new for roughly $150. It was unopened and had v6.2 firmware. Maybe I just got lucky, I don't keep up with any console updates to consoles on the market.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but on an unopened, untouched 3DS XL, the firmware should be v6.2, which is downgrade-able. If you're looking for a used one, you can get it from Amazon, but make sure to ask the seller if they can check the firmware on it first.

Got mine from "NetstarEnterprises", but unfortunately he/they aren't selling any other 3DS right now other than a New 3DS XL. If it were me and I were ordering one from Amazon right now, I'd personally go for the one from "WHFEbiz". Its the cheapest one under the "New" category, his feedback seems legit, and he specifically states that it is "factory sealed".
