Grettings, fellow gbatemp-ers,

I'm looking to get myself a compatible flashcard for ntrboothax. Since the website mentioned in the thread title is the official sponsor of gbatemp, and many ppl seem to be very content with their orders from this site, I figured I'd give it a go.
Now to my actual question:
Their shipping section appears very cryptic to me. I'm looking to get my card shipped to Germany, and http://www.nds-card.com/shippingReturns.asp lists Germany under registered airmail (to inform that tracking is not possible for shipments to Germany), but when proceeding to check out, it lists the following under "Choose a shipping method":
- HongKong Air Mail (No Tracking#)
- Hong Kong Registered Air Mail
- Express Mail(DHL/UPS/EMS)(Western Europe/Asia)
- Express Mail(DHL/UPS/EMS)(Eastern Europe/ North America/Oceania)

The last two options kind of confuse me a bit. Does this mean they're available to Western Europe/Asia respectively Eastern Europe/North America/Oceania only (as in, not available to the rest of the world) or does this mean that they're the only two options available for these regions (and HongKong [Registered] Air Mail is not)?
In other words, can I pick Hong Kong Registered Air Mail for Germany as well? I'm assuming I can, just wanted to make sure.

Also, can anyone report on how long shipping to Germany took for them + which shipping method they chose?

Thanks in advance!

No trouble at all. I believe they shipped it 2 days after my order. Took around 10 days more or less from order to delivery.
Note that I went with the registered airmail option as stated above. Contrary to what they claim on their own page, I was also able to track it during the whole process (which they say is not supported for Germany, unless I got that wrong).

First of all thank you very much for the fast response. Thats good i also ordered with the traking option and my card arrived at the customs at friday. That you had no trouble relives me a lot because these cards are not exactly very welcome in germany ;P.
BTW i was also able to track the whole process just fine i wonder why they say its not supported. Anyways thakns alot.

Lol. I am from Czech Republic and I am still waiting for it. I ordered it like month ago. I am also able to track it but from 30.8. The tracking info did not change.

I know this thread is old, but for future reference, I bought one from www.gamemaniaz.com. This shop looks like it is from Germany.

The only payment method is Sofortüberweisung, no difference from manual bank transfer.

I will update when I get the card about delivery time and quality.

With the fine difference that Sofortüberweisung can perfectly fetch your complete bank account history during the process, as you're providing your login credentials.

Also, if you had read their terms and conditions, you would have realized very quickly that this stop is neither from Germany nor does it ship from Germany. The German is weird and they're talking about shipping as gifts and normally no problems at customs, so they're shipping internationally - also, they have no legal information provided and by the fact that they only accept a payment method you can not cancel or call back in any way, I'd honestly be surprised if you received anything at all.
