Just thought I would write this to save anyone else from the UK losing cash. I arranged for a guy in China to send me an EZ Flash cart (it was the only way I could do it via PayPal). It arrived in the UK (Heathrow Distribution Centre) on 28th January. As it is now almost a month it has been sitting there I decided to make a few calls.
The helpful guy on the phone from UK Customs told me it has most likely been seized "Nintendo have asked us to seize all non-Nintendo cartridges". He told me that Nintendo will be contacted to see what they want to do. Obviously they will want the item destroyed. So, that's me out of cash as I didn't buy via a company.
My biggest worry however is that my Paypal account will be cancelled because of this. The chance of finding anyone in the UK stocking these carts is 0% so it looks like my wish to have all my games on one cart is dashed.
Oh well, back to one cart at a time now
