[DRACO]

Arrived: 30th around 12pm

finally got my wiikey and lg 8164b from foundmy.com. if your outside of the US, i wouldn't recommend buying from them unless you fork out the extra cash for faster shipping.

My wiikey, tri-wing and enough AVG-30 wire came in 7 days from eurasia.nu for $50 (U.S.), so about £27. Took me another 7 days to build up enough courage to crack open and solder it in (wired), though. Works like a treat with PAL backups - still waiting to test with eledees, sorry elebits.

Don't buy from Wiinjamod. In addition to the large amount of time they took to send it, Wiinjamod also just stuck the legs of the chip through the receipt and bent them flat to ship it to me, as opposed to other stores which had been sending the chip in a plastic case, without needing to bend the legs. If I was soldering directly to the chip, I wouldn't complain too much about the bend legs, but I already have a socket in my Wii.

Acegamerstore is complete crap...

Ordered wiikey on sunday, and after the details were sent, it came up with an erorr, and nothing more... Allthough the $$$ was taken out of the bank account, hopefully the goods get sent

Its now friday, and nothing has came

EDIT: It was a public holiday when we ordered, would that have anything to do with it?

I've had nothing but good experiences with acegamestore. Have you picked up the phone and spoke to them?
I've called them twice, once enquiring about product availability and once checking on an order and both times I was helped immediately and thoroughly.
Hope it is all well, the error is definitely worth checking on though. Perhaps the payment info went through but your order details didn't..?
Anyway, keep us informed on how they deal with it.
Good luck.

Well, great news. I was about to ring acegamers today, to see what was going on, but then the wiikey came in the mail

So I ordered it on the sunday (easter), and it came the next tuesday... So thats only about 6 working days, I guess thats not too bad.

Hey everyone,
So I did a little overhaul of the list today, including info on the WiiD and a lot more reviews and some new retails for all the other modchips. Keep the feedback coming, it's pricelessly helpful to all of us!

My Wiikey from Kaidomain arrived, it took a month to Brazil tough. Pack came nicely and it's the original one

Good service from those guys

 

[DcThePurger]

Anyone know the average time it takes for Eurasia to ship to the US? I heard they were pretty fast but it's been a week now and it hasn't arrived yet.

 

[Avenger]

I have ordered from modchipman.com numerous times and in large quantities, good guys over there, fast shipping. Never disappointed me yet!

Can anyone confirm if Acegamerstore sells genuine Wiikey or Clones? I ask because their name is not listed on www.wiikey.cn reseller's list.

Thanks

I placed an order with modchipstore.com for my wiikey last Wednesday using DHL Overnight AM shipping. It's Sunday now and I still have no chip, and they wont return any emails either. So not everyone gets good service with modchipstore.com. I'm now looking for a different place to buy my wiikey from.

 

[rigz2007]
