    Cheapest (And reliable) USA Retailer

    Hello.
    I am about to buy Nintendogs and advance wars DS but looking for the cheapest online retailer that; Accepts paypal, delivers to the UK and is cheap.

    Videogames plus is alright but $40 for Advance wars when it's supposed to be $30 is OTT for me.

    any help would be appreciated thanks.

    VGP is Canadian $ m8, they aren't worth as much as US$ www.xe.com for exact prices but VGP also have a conversion thingy on the site, $40 CAD is about ?18.50

    anywhere selling it for $30 USD is currently chargin about ?16.50 tho so on the currect exchange rates it would be a bit cheaper to use a US distributer tho VGP do the cheapest shipping I know for a US/CAD based comapany of so that could well balance it up.

        I just ordered a bunch of games from Tronix, never used them before so I hope they survive The Customs Test? - fingers crossed.

          Tronix are the best US games supplier full stop.

          Games are always shipped right on, or before release date.

          $13 (or $15 for two games) Fedex shipping rate means you have them on the Thursday when the game is released on the Tuesday, no customs guaranteed.

          HIGHLY recommended!

            yep i'd totally recommend tronix as i've ordered loads of times and they always come good, games arrive in about 5 days or so and the package is marked down too

            on pre-order games if you miss the first batch they get then they put you into the second batch they get, other shops you have to wait for it to come into stock totally

              No customs guaranteed? On their website, under the 'shopping Cart' section, it says using Air mail has less chances of an import tax than Fed Ex. Is this true?

                So they REALLY are that Good? if there really is NO Customs Charges then i def think i'll be shifting from VG+ to Tronix...i have been unhappy with VG+ for the last 6 months.

                  Yep, I used to use VG+, but moved over to Tronix and I am absolutely delighted.

                  Also, if you ever have a problem, they respond to emails quickly and professionally.

                  A breath of fresh air!!

                    They themselves dont guarantee no customs as anything can happen obviously, but they mark the packages down, and dont have any value etc declared on the inside invoice!

                      Oh right. I had practically placed my order with them through fed ex, when I read that on the site, and decided to go with VG+ for a tried and tested retailer with regards to customs.

                      I guess I'll place my next order with them.

                          but then there's no guarantee on the package if it gets lost in the post.

                            No, you dont.

                            I've probably had about 100 games come through using the FEDEX option, and not one have been taxed.
