hi,

Anyone know where i can get the cheapest R4 card, I know DSTT cards are cheap, but I know a fe guys who have these and are getting nothing but problems with them, so I thought I will go for the R4DS cards.

Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

    I just bought one on Ebay from bluelamjem (score over 200000.) It was stolen in the post but they replaced it quickly. Cost under £9 incl p&p.

    Thanks everyonw for your help.

    I managed to order one of the R4 card from www.tekphobia.co.uk they accepted paypal and are based in the UK so was happy with that, and for only £21.99. Just hope I get this by Tuesday, I did not want the DSTT as per my opening post, I know a few people who have this and have nothing but trouble with the DSTT cards.

    I don't see why that is not possible at all.

    question ?


    i have just had a look on the website above and i noticed that he has a lot of different categories but when you look in those categories he has nothing for sale only 2 memory cards and the r4 type items, so that makes me a bit cautious about ordering from them,

    has anybody out there ordered from these or any reviews of this person website

    yes, i see what your saying but i gave them a call, on the number provided, seems legit paying by paypal im protected too. When i spoke to them they were saying that they were in the process of adding products to the online store as they have revamped their online store. They seemed friendly enough too - give them a call

    hi,

    just a quick update, I got my R4DS card today, when I got home from work it was here! :D

    They must have sent it out the same day, excellent service!

    Now I just need to work out how to put the games on it
