Hacking Deal Extreme?

[supermauerbros]

Ordered March 16th received April 2nd. I'm not exactly sure how they do it so much cheaper than other stores but I'm not complaining.

I ordered a second R4, this time with the 1GB Kingston memory card.

March 21st - Ordered R4 DS
March 23th - Received shipping notification
March 28th - Left Hong Kong
April 3rd - Packaged arrived

Like the first one, everyone works just fine. The Kingston is from Japan, as advertised. Another recommendation for them.

Ordered March 12th, and it came April 2nd, so really slow service to Tennessee, but everything works.

bought march 23, recieved april 7th.

this batch makes 4 R4's that i've bought from dealextreme. everysingle one perfect.

I ordered 4 of the R4+1GB Kingston card, and it's funny because 2 of the microSD card cases were upside down in the package out of the 4, so it makes me a little suspicious :/ Either way, all four work fine

My wife and I can finally play multiplayer games together

The one I received from my sister was upside down too!

I've stated this before but the certainty of getting a Japan Kingston 1GB was worth the two week wait over Gamesyeeeah.com.
Add that to the fact that the combination of the card and the R4, both in their original packaging, was $43.50 when I ordered made it entirely worth it in my eyes.

Same here. I'm guessing everybody got their Kingstons in the Chinese retail packaging?

 

[supermauerbros]

Yeah mine had Chinese and English on it.

 

[AOforever1]

Hmm... if I wait for 2-3 weeks I will save 15 dollars compared to RHS... dang. This is indeed a tough decision.

i ordered my r4 on april 4th and since april 6th till now which 3days it has been stuck on the 3rd step of processing and it says only 1 day to process. does any1 have the same problem?

 

[hirusho]

I think it's ok. My order was stuck for a week before shipped...

~ thanks op in 4 1 ~

lol anyway, I ordered from kaidomain, their sister site. more than likely the same people. took 3 weeks to get here but it made it completely unharmed in an envelope, box didn't even get crushed. I should've got a 1gb with it at the same time, now it's kinda pointless since they raised the price of the 1gb, sometimes I find them cheap in the US.

There's a rumor that Kingston doesn't use the Taiwan supplier any more so most that you buy these days are going to be Japan made.

When did you hear the news about Kingston dropping their Taiwanese manufacturers?

I was in the same boat you are-

It took me 6 days to wait. I think it must have been due to the Easter holiday since I've had the same delay and ship date for my DS that I ordered on a different site. Anyway, by this time next week, I should be enjoying the benefits of having an R4 and a DS

i thought the japan made are the right ones for the r4 and castlevania por?
or am i wrong?

 

[4saken]

You're correct. Him saying that Kingston is dropping their Japanese suppliers is a good thing. However it's most likely opposite.

 

[kersplatty]

i was gonna order one of these from this site for my sister, hope it goes to plan

 

[c0rderr0y]

I ordered 2 from them and it took almost 2 weeks everything was in working order. I also ordered the Japan made Kingston from digitalmediaoutlet.com but I had to request it right after I made the order.
