you guys think there is a way for them to get those back? what I dont get is why hasnt paypal told them to stop selling carts? also for those who ordered a mod chip did you guys get your money back or is the shop still sending them?
That order would have already gone through at that point. Paypal requesting the site remove modchips doesn't alter the fact that the funds were transferred and the order initiated in the system and all that good stuff. It would merely limit future purchases.squirrelman10 said:you guys think there is a way for them to get those back? what I dont get is why hasnt paypal told them to stop selling carts? also for those who ordered a mod chip did you guys get your money back or is the shop still sending them?
Nope, unfortunately paypal won't support any shop that sells modchips period. Regardless of if you're using them for the sale or otherwise.squirrelman10 said:well couldnt they still put them up but inorder to buy them just have the option to not use pay pal, or can you not do that?
Yeah it doesn't make much sense. Maybe they see the value of flashcarts as more than just devices for piracy, but don't feel the same about modchips?Matthew said:What I don't get is that PayPal is still allowing Flash Carts.
Hmmm... could be true, there's more homebrew for the DS than for the Wii.Ace Gunman said:Maybe they see the value of flashcarts as more than just devices for piracy, but don't feel the same about modchips?

I wouldn't lend them the benefit of the doubt in assuming they actually possess enough knowledge to make a distinction like that. It's probably more because they don't know what flashcarts are yet.Ace Gunman said:Yeah it doesn't make much sense.

They don't want to be seen to support Piracy or corporations will get on their backs about it. Modchips are all piracy (playing backups etc.) but I'm surprised that they didn't include Flashcarts in their demands.mattpucc said:I don't see why Paypal is gettin' all anal about modchips, flashcarts etc.

Yeah, large corporations like PayPal are never able to make distinctions like this... more than likely, when they actually pull their heads out of their asses long enough to learn (assuming they're capable) what flashcarts are, they'll stop supporting shops with those, as well.
This seems all the more reason to just add a regular, credit card checkout option. Once ShopTemp has that, you can just get rid of PayPal and bring the Modchips back.
