What do you mean no? 3dsgamerworld has them for $70 and eachmall has them for $59.22 so that isn't a $15 dollar difference unless you get the coupon.

There is no coupon! That's their original price! Even shoptemp shows eachmall as the cheapest! http://shoptemp.net/products/Gateway-3DS-p-675.html

I agree, Eachmall is the cheapest. It is $10 cheaper than most sites that sell GW @ $70. Plus eachmall has a $5 coupon on many of their product pages for new customers only: http://www.eachmall.me/flashbanner/banner_20120409031253_en_cn.jpg

Does it make sense now? Sorry for the misunderstanding.

Cheaper goods is always gooder than expensive goodses. specialy when get good price

Competitive prices are good but things that are too cheap may not be worth buying like all the dead R4 clones.

Ah, yeah. I had a 20% discount coupon, and it didn't apply to my Gateway, so I don't think the $5 off coupon would work.

You are probably right but I just sent them an email asking about it so we'll see...

Yeah,when I buy these flashcards,I wiil compare the price in many sites, and choose the middle price,neither the cheapest nor the expensive.

I tried the $5 signup coupon a couple of days ago, didn't manage to get it working, calmed down, and decided to wait it out on 9.0 compatibility news instead.

Price isn't a good indicator of quality.

You may take note that marketing psychology works both ways.
Some companies price things "low" to get the people that always go for the cheapest product.
Other companies purposefully price the same things "high" to get people to make the assumption that "its more expensive so it must be better".

There are numerous experiments and tests that show and prove this. Slap a higher pricetag on something and a lot of people will "assume" it has to be better/higher quality.
I've seen two notable ones:
One had a furniture store that had two identical chairs (those luxurious fancy chairs), one with a $200 and one with a $300 pricetag standing next to eachother.
They asked people, and everyone said the $300 one was "more comfortable".
Overnight they switched the pricetags and the next day the $300 one was again more comfortable.

Similarly I've seen one with photocamera's. One using a small digital camera and the other had a small digital camera hidden inside a casing to make it look like one of those expensive camera's you always see in photoshoots. Everyone assumed the higher quality photo came from the 'bigger' camera. Because clearly that one has to be more expensive and better right?

Suffice it to say - its always best to do your homework and simply cross reference product and store reviews.
Hell, throw in some of the shopnames like yeahgeek or eachmall into the gbatemp search engine and you could probably find plenty of examples of people that used them.

Hi, I have questions about Eachmall

The items says "Free shipping"... However, in shipping method selection, there is no "free shiping": Standard Shipping US$14.73 / HK DHL US$17.99.
How can I benefit from "free shipping"?

Also, about payment methods... There is no paypal, I already expected that... but... No Visa? No credit card?
I don't know to use that Wester union or that Webmoney methods... In their payment guide they talk about VISA but I don't see VISA in payment methods...

Thanks in advance!

Edit: if it matters, my country is Spain.

I also ordered from yeahgeek on November 14th, they sent the item on November 16th, and I received it today which is 15 days later.

Any customs duty or such? Or all free and clear?

They usually declare their packages as low value to avoid custom charges

Nirmonculus · Dec 1, 2014

Yep, no customs fee at all.Philippine Post is the most corrupt and humanly slow as possible in the world, I was absolutely relieved when I was notified that it finally exited customs. Stories of items being imported to the country are close to stuff of nightmares. The day that my item arrived customs here, someone got arrested in their office for extortion.
You guys got it really quick considering you live in another continent.

Where can I buy the cheapest gateway with Paypal? So far the cheapest I've found is at R4gateway.com for 72,5$ shipping included.
Is there any cheaper?

Well nevermind, bought from them anyway. Has anyone ever bought from them or heard of them and can confirm they're legit?
