Current best place to buy DS imports?

[ascender]

Just wondering if there are any recommended retailers to get DS games from at the moment? Found some of the Japanese titles on eBay but they seem to have hidden costs like ?10 postal insurance on top of shipping and the cost of the game.

Thanks,


Mike.

yeah the ebayers from hk will add 10 onto the shipping, although this is a age old ebay technique - Fleece no' jutsu!

seriously, take a look at the banners around this site: Play asia, lik sang, VG+, tronix all will provide you with that which you seek

Well I used to just use vg+ and suchlike but the cheapest I've found and used for Nintendogs is http://www.movietyme.com/catalog/

From ?17.99 delivered ain't bad at all, ok they seem to sometime get their stock a little late but if you can hang on it only takes a few days to arrive after shipping. My Nintendogs was shipped Tues and arrived Thurs.

Give 'em a whirl...

You were lucky, then - Movietyme didn't get anywhere near as many copies of Nintendogs as they wanted, and some people have had much longer waits; you can't even order that game at the site any more while they finish sorting it out.

Fair enough but like I said they do seem to have problems with stock somtimes but if you can wait it's the cheapest around and I'm in no rush. I pre-ordered mine on the 16th Aug.

Movietyme are a bunch of jokers - ok if what you want is in stock, a nightmare if it isn't, or if you need any after-sales care. After three of four cock-ups in a 2 month period, I gave up on them - even saving a few quid isn't worth the hassle if something goes wrong.

VG+ and Tronix come recommended from me.

If you don't paying standard retail price (?24.99), I got AWDS from cdwow with quick delivery.
