    Dead site for me. Sounds too good to be true though.

    Will this be compatible with the UK version though as the link is to a Canadian site?
    Being bored is so boring Im bored of it... :rotfl:
  • Not entirely sure where the £57 is from...as far as i can see the ds is $239.98 (canadian dollars) which is just over £100 (+ p&p)

    From experience with the other gameboy's there will be no problem getting it to run UK games. However, chances are you will need an adapter to plug it into a UK socket. You will also have to pay UK customs charges and VAT. What the charges will be I don't know.

    I've managed to get on the site and I have a few things to add. Their most expensive shipping method is the only one that has insurance against loss etc... However, that insurance is only $100 CAD...ie, not enough to cover the item.

    I got one from america ages ago - game sell the charger for £5 or you can use the old one from a sp - exactly the same and it is 100% region free;)

    Thanks Mrme. I suspected as much. My main problem is the shipping though. Standard shipping doesn't include any insurance. So if the item got lost or damaged in transit...tough. It would be a case of claiming through warranty etc... Don't really want to take the risk when it would be a pressie.

    You get 2 free dvd's as well, includung the incredibles, blade runner & queen on fire - live at the bowl

    To get this deal you will have to buy the fidelity icard so there isn't much in the price after all - wait until the uk release

    if stuff goes missing just claim back of cc.

    ive spent thousands at dvdsoon.com over the years.

    If stopped by customs the fees will be

    3.5%
    then 17.%
    Then royalmaisl £4 on top, so £73

    Thanks Coolio, but as I said I'm not happy with the standard shipping. Call it peace of mind if you like. Its not that I don't trust them. I'm just a worry wart.
