wow that sucks.

I smell a new section appearing in the forums:-

Shops to AVOID

with just the name of the shop and reason to avoid it.

this could also lead to a shop rating system

where the users of GBAtemp can rate various shos they've bought from.

That really sucks!!! Shame on them!!! There is a post that says what e-shops not to buy from... We should include this!

Don't worry about my prize. I competed in the spirit of the holiday, and you guys shouldn't have to pay out of your own pockets.

Thanks for the explanation, and I can guarantee that I'll never order from wikiNDS.
 
OUCH!!! That hurts. GBAtemp will suffer because the admins will have to shell out cash from their own wallets to replace what was stolen.

BOYCOTT wikiNDS. Let's get some giant fork and torches and burn them to hell

I'm saying that if GBAtemp has to shell out the cash, I don't need a prize. No one should expect GBAtemp to take the hit for wikiNDS's dishonest business practices.

It's cool, I think that post was directed at the thread, not you

Ditching out at the end is kinda nasty. If they were in trouble and couldn't financially make the deal through no fault of their own then that would be one thing, but the fact that they're still trading and just plain ignoring you guys is appalling. Regardless of the difference the adverts actually made to their sales, they've struck a deal with you and broken their end of the bargain. Not cool.
 
Never purchased from them nor do I plan to in the future now. I don't agree with using your own pocket money to provide prizes to the winners though. GBAtemp staffs have proven that they don't scam. It isn't the staffs' fault this happened. You can always compensate them with something else in the end. Maybe it'll take a while for them to receive a prize but they still get something in the end. Maybe some kind of privilege on the forums?
 
I was half thinking of buying a flashcart off them since deal extreme does no longer do them, NOT NOW, the pricks.
 
Wow, what a bunch of dickheads -_- I'm sorry to hear this, I never thought someone could do something like this... I mean, come on, acting like you're sponsoring and not doing anything in the end, just taking advantage of other people's good intentions is bad. If I knew where the admins or whatever they're called of WikiNDS lived, I'd go there immediately and punch them in the face. Seriously.

Hopefully this doesn't happen again, cause I hate seeing things like this happening...

I'd love to donate a bit for the prizes now, but I can't

Really, really sad...
 
This thread deserves to be on the front page so everyone will know not to buy from WikiNDS.

I am so sad to hear this. I don't understand why they would lie. I suggest everyone to go to there website and email them with a big fuck to them because off what they did to gbatemp. I already emailed them.

Thank you for the kind explanation. I was targetting the topic and not someone here. I apologize for a possible flame war if any.

This. This is important news, so you should put it on the front page where everyone can read it.

Also, you should update the list in the NDS - Flashcart Section. It has 2 threads, Recommended and Not Recommended sites to buy from. Add this site to the Not Reccomended...
