Yeah, I think you can.

If not, just link the gift card to a Paypal account.

 

Because they are cheap!($12.97) I have 3 AK2i's from them all of which are genuine and working. Same goes for the 3 I got from FocalPrice which were also $12.97. None of them took over 2 weeks from order to delivery.

They me cost less than £8.50 each (depending on the exchange rate), whereas nds-gear you are often recommending are charging £15.99. There's no way i'm paying £15.99 for something when I can get an identical item for £8.50, even if it does mean I have to wait a few more days for delivery.

All depends on how much of a skinflint you are.

 

So? You can get the AK2i from http://www.0shippingzone.com/ for $16.45, or $13.50 for the AK2. Less than five bucks difference to not have to deal with Dealextreme and their slow shipping, poor support, etc. And on top of it, Dealextreme is not and has never been a sponsor for GBAtemp while 0ShippingZone is.

You're buying a product that plays infinite games--for free--and expect us to believe that $3.50 makes a huge difference? I spend more than that on tips at breakfast.

 

DealExtreme rules.

 

Ill third that DX ROCKS never had a problem in over 3 yrs,never got a dud AK2i off them either yeah sometimes shipping can be a bit slow then other times its amazing how fast it was.......

 

paypal only
and paypal needs to be linked to a bank account

Ive tried the giftcard thing before with a amex card, didnt work

 

After the chinese newyear, my orders on DX has been faster than normal, ordered lots of cards for friends of mine on the February 18 and they arrived today. Orders made on 20, 21, 22 have also been sent. Not bad for the price.

 

Goto VolumeRate which is the wholesale sistersite to DealExtreme. Find the cart you want and note down the SKU code. Goto DealExtreme and on the lefthand side of the page there's a box:

Enter the SKU code of the cart into that and click Go. You will then get a product page popup where you can order the cart from.

Quite a few people have ordered carts using this workaround and have received them no problems. I had 2 AK2i's delivered on 13/02.

An alternative site to purchase from is 0ShippingZone or you can try PriceAngels

If you are ordering an Acekard 2i and you don't have a DS Lite or DSi pre 1.4 to update it, then buy from 0SZ instead of DX as they come with the update pre-applied, or atleast they do until Nintendo finds out. As you're a n00b, don't buy the AK2.1 as they are all having save issues; get the AK2i instead even if you only have a DS Lite.

 

I used the addquantity link in the forums, but your tip is better!

 

It just gives people a little more confidence that DX will send them as you get the full product page popup with all the photos, description and links to the product forum just like before it was removed from the site.
