I never got around to buying anything from ShopTemp.

I really wanted to, and the site would have satiated my post-holiday craving for gaming junk.
 
ShopTemp v2 eh?

looking forward to it. No more selling purple scarves i hope. (Lol ;3)

Couldnt the funds be removed from paypal and placed in a "real" account nightly? that's what i'd do if i started selling stuff.

Wow....sure glad I ordered my DSTwo on Nov. 18th...just got it this past Saturday. I almost waited.

Shame to see it go, but these days it's inevitable.

If after 8 weeks I still don't get it in the mail, will shoptemp refund me?

Hey, will someone who's responsible answer this question?

How can they? Their paypal is closed. If anything, IF you do get a refund, it will likely come from someone that doesn't work for PayPal. But if you ordered it a month ago, then there's no worries. The only real worries is the orders that were pretty much started this month.

Not to be a nag, but would you think my order would get to my sis's house by the 20th? o_O Its driving me crazy! How long does it usually take to ship to North America usually? Again, I ordered around the 20th. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Couldn't tell you. It was likely already shipped, but because of the holiday season, who knows.

Well, if that is IF I do not get my product after 8 weeks of course I'll be asking for a refund. I couldn't care less if they open another paypal account to do it...

"How can they" is simply an irresponsible and unprofessional way of customer satisfaction.

No it isn't, if PayPal is banning all their shit and everything, it's pretty hard. It might also be a while if you do get offered a refund because they don't exactly have money to give you the refund, they might give you a replacement or something, who knows.
 
Can one of you guys that knows please help me:

I made my order way back on November 15th. I used the regular shipping with tracking. When i check my tracking number it says this:

QUOTE said:
2010 arrival at transit office of exchange SHENZHEN 2010-11-19
2010 departure from outward office of exchange SHENZHEN 2010-11-19
2010 posting 2010-11-18

So, my package has been sitting there since November 19th?

I don't understand how come there is no update in almost 1 month about my package.

Do they continue to update the status of the package once it gets to the USA or how do i know if it has moved since 11-19?

Has anyone had an order take this long or stay in one place like this for so long?

That remains to be seen. If I ask for a replacement this waiting process might just begin again. I'm not gonna wait for weeks for it to arrive

It left Shenzhen on November 19th. Once it's gone, it's out of their control. It's up to post offices to update their tracking system.

Mine's "departure from outward office of exchange GUANGZHOU 2010-11-16"

In the same boat as you. It's not even updating anymore..

China's postal sucks..
 
One door closes, another one opens.........a fact of life to start getting used to, kiddies.
Nothing to be depressed about, just move on (unless you've got outstanding orders, etc. of course).

I couldn't care less if I had no outstanding orders or cleared orders with them..

Then why post at all?

Also, can someone, preferably an admin or someone who is in contact with ShopTemp, check the status of my order?

My latest status is "2010 arrival at transit office of exchange SHENZHEN 2010-11-19 "

That means it has not left Shenzhen. It only says it arrived at the office of exchange.

Did your actually say it left there?
 
My DSTwo came the day after ShopTemp stopped selling cards, so no refund issues for me, but no warranty either, oh well.

Just a note to all those bitching about Nintendo going after sites that sell flashcards:

A. Without Nintendo the scene you love so much probably wouldn't exist.

B. The law says Nintendo have a right to protect their intellectual property and copyrighted material, that's the same law that says I can't come into your house and take your DSi, your TV, drive away in your car etc. Would you like it if anyone could steal whatever they wanted and not face any consequence?

C. I play pirated roms, but I don't believe I have some kind of right to do so because games are too expensive or not available in my region or whatever. Nintendo can release what they want and charge what they want - that's democracy. I'm committing theft by playing pirated games, it's as simple as that.
