If that's where you want to put your money to save a few bucks, by all means...

Just to double check, Only the games that are USA or (E)nglish work for the NDS here, right?
So if I downloaded a game from Europe, it wouldn't work here?

PM me if interested. I ship from HK - it usually takes between 5-7 business days, but with Canada Customs sometimes it gets delayed a bit. | any deals with a 2GB??

They have an RS deal going on that lets you pick either the M3S/R4/SC-DS and a 1GB Japanese Kingston MicroSD for $70.

Isn't it only $4 cheaper? 70CAD (no tax) vs 60USD.
But anyways, just throwing that out there if anyone plans on buying a DS flash kit.

I can't compete with shady dealers
If you guys want to deal with sketchy stores, go for it. Sorry
Do they sell the English version or the Chinese one? If it's the Chinese one, I may be able to lower my price.

There has been tons of very satisfied customers from RS that have been there before.

I don't see how that can be possible (knowing the cost of these items over the past 3 months), but I'll take your word for it....

So you didn't pay $60.. then what's your point?
Some people end up paying $60, some pay $70, and some pay $80. Sometimes there is tax, and sometimes there isn't. If that isn't shady, I don't know what is... But that's just my opinion... I wouldn't shop there, some people would. It's your money, do with it what you like
But if you want to buy from an upstanding citizen, and loooooooooong-time RS member, and save a few bucks in the process, and don't mind waiting a week, then please PM me |
