Hi, I'm looking to buy a new R4 (or really any flash cart) of some type, as my really old R4 doesn't work properly in my 3DS (contacts too short), and the one I just waited 2.5 months for is dead on arrival...
First off, I've noticed now that I've done research this time that most people prefer the R4i Gold from r4ids.cn. Is this the for sure best, or are there others just as good or even better?
Second, which site should I be looking at to buy one of these while not having to wait ages for shipping? I live on the east side of the US, and I can't be bothered waiting another 2.5 months for a card after the one I just bought doesn't even work.
Third, what's the ideal price range to be looking for when buying these days? The bad one I bought was only $12, but I don't really know what they go for these days, last time I bought a flash cart before this was in 2009 and it was around $20.
Thanks in advance.
