WARNING avoid Sky3DSUK.com (note the "UK")Hello! Last week I got my Sky3DS blue button from NDS-card they were really fast shipped me in like 2-3 days (Of course with DHL express shipping not with the free shipping) and its really good, but they were little overpriced so probably the Plus will be a little overpriced too. I would like to get the new card also and many of the resellers will have stock on 15. December. So can someone refer legit EU Resellers? Saw some german resellers with good prices but not sure which is legit or not. Thanks.
Forgot to mention please don't link UK sites either since the price is ridiculously high compared to USD, EUR.
I ordered a Sky3DS+ card from these people on 15th December 2015. My "UK local Supplier", "Fast Post NOT from China".
The order price was £72 + £2 delivery.
I received an email confirming the order date as "16th December" - clearly this was sent from a time zone far East of the UK, there was meant to be a follow up email confirming tracking details - none received. I tried to ask a question about my order via the "contact us" page - which doesn't actually allow typed input. They did supply the "owner's" name and email though -"[email protected]", still not sounding too "local". All emails were ignored anyway.
The card arrived on 14th January - and it works well, I was relieved and delighted, so much so that I decided to buy another card for my daughter. The price had increased by £3 now to £75 + £2 delivery but I accepted this. The order, however, was rejected immediately (twice), turns out that this was my bank just monitoring a potentially suspicious purchase, so no real problem - until the bank said that the amount that they'd blocked was £90:22, NOT the £77 that I was attempting to pay. This £90:22 is charged right upfront - not later to cover some unforseen event (eg customs).
I checked my bank statement for the previous purchase for £72 + £2 but couldn't see it at first - but then there it was "Kabin clothes" £84:81 !
I have emailed "junychen" but as usual there is no reply. So what should one make of this? I can only find one word "fraud", if I order something for a price I don't expect to be charged a totally different price, to then hide the transaction behind Kabin clothes just confirms the type of company this is.
As a footnote I still wanted another card but looking at the shortlist of UK Resellers didn't inspire much confidence as several of them were clearly from the same group of companies as Sky3dsUK - website VERY similar, same prices, same offers, same dodgy English etc.
I looked at Digimartz and found a different style of site, the "About us" clearly states that they're based in Hong Kong so that's fine as they're upfront about it. The price was £60 with free UK delivery. I ordered 2 and received a detailed invoice which reassuringly came to the correct total!
Further emaill a few hours later confirming items are shipped and with a tracking number.
I have included this footnote just as reassurance that not all Chinese companies are the same, there's good and bad everywhere - but we don't have to accept the bad.
