cd wow rip off

Options
Ordered nintendogs labs and friends from cdwow. Seemed a decent price till the game arrived.:huh: They sent me the american version not for sale outside canada ect. If I had wanted this I could have got it at half the price on ebay. Has anyone else struggled with cdwow? Have emailed them and they say return to cyprus!:mad: Surely that isn't right and can I claim postage back. Thanks.
you go all your life thinking that money and comfort will bring you happiness only to find all you need is something to be enthusiastic about.:j

    You know why CD wow are called that don't you - because 'Wow' is the word you say when they get ur order right. I avoid them like the plauge!
  • I use them all the time and I've only ever had one issue with them and they resolved it very well. You do sometimes have to read the item information quite closely at times though.

    As to whether you can claim the postage back, you might want to ask them or check the Ts and Cs.

    I have used them several times, with no problems at all.

    According to members on here, there CS is fantastic. If there is a problem, they are more than happy to help you!

    Contact them and see what they say.

    I love CDWow and buy oodles of stuff from them and apart from a couple of items lost in the post which they replaced quickly, I've had no problems.

    Usually they are quite clear when they are selling a non UK version of a game or disc.

  • I also love cd wow. I only buy cds and dvds but i agree you have to check the format!
  • it does usually clearly say what the regions are for any given product on CDWOW e.g. regions of DVD, CD etc
  • Ordered loads of stuff from CDWow over the years and had no problems at all. Is this the link you ordered from http://games.cd-wow.co.uk/online/games-nintendo-ds-nintendogs-lab-and-friends.php as it does state US version there?
  • it normally states what region it will play on

    Is it not an offense for them to supply media that has strict guidelines on what regions it can/cannot be sold in?
  • There was a similar post not long ago.
