Hacking GBAtemp's Official List of Flashcart Dealers

[Madrigal]

Has anybody personaly used http://www.realhotstuff.com/ ? I was considering getting the supercard minisd/superkey combo, they seemed to have the best price for that. I live in the USA.

My friend used http://www.jandaman.com/ to buy his card and got it quickly and got a good price. So i might go with that if there are no positive reviews on realhotstuff

I keep on hearing a lot of good things about RHS on the Supercard forums. I think they are worth a try.

but they r down now so.. =D cannot try them now.. wonder when the site will up and running again.... just want to say something to clarify.. I dont think they give bad service (because they answer email very2 quickly.. its like.. a sec after i press the send button..

) but when u already pay 100 bucks then u try to login to their page.. and u cannot logiin!!! =P that will make u hate them for a moment dont u? but the warning message about the site being down coming after that.. so.. yea...

what i hate is.. paypal..

gah.. takes so long.. ahaha cannot complain though.. for ppl who dont have credit card.. i just bare with it.. -__-!!

I placed my order with realhotstuff today (for a m3 mini + passcard 3

) and my status was on pending. But right now their site is down and I fear that my order wasn't processed. I'll have to wait and see what happens

Tyasawa: I know how you feel about paypal. I paid with my credit card which is much faster and easier. Only thing is, I don't know how if i can trust them with my creditcard info.

Now that you've mentioned it, I haven't emailed them yet! Last time I checked my status was on pending and they haven’t charged my credit cart so I’m not too worried. I'll wait till tomorrow and see what happens before I send them an email. It would really suck if I was forced to order from some other place. Their prices are very competitive and their shipping rates are cheap. I was going to go for winsunx but they no longer have the regular m3 mini for sale.

I think (remember this is just a guess)... when they're having trouble our data that was there lost from database.. the paypal process that ive done is processed because basically paypal site that done it.. and they do receive my payment in their paypal.. but they dont have my data with them that ive sent using their website (contain my order detail, address etc).. so they ask me to tell them what item that ive buy to match with the payment i paid.. so in conclusion.. paypal site works when i do the transaction.. and their site crashed after i do the transaction and they lose my data, BUT they can track my order using paypal (with order info that i gave to them using email).

I dont quite understand about credit card thingy.. are they kept u detail to get money from u? if so.. they MIGHT dont have ur data right now.. so go email them and check ^^

haha i confuse myself reading my own post

Anyone ever do business with gamersection.ca? They seem to have good prices and good information on all their products. I got the site from the official supercard site.

About a year and a half ago I ordered an EFA flash cart from chipdealer.com. They never sent the cart and I went through lots of email complaints with them and with the manufacturer of EFA and the store just refused to acknowledge that they owed me anything, even though they had cashed my paypal payment. Paypal wouldn't do anything and the creditcard company wouldnt either. Thankfully Fly at EFA sent me a free cart to make up for one of his official dealers scamming me, and took them off his official dealer list. The cart came to me through Kicktrading who provided great service,a nd I have dealt with Kicktrading several times since, always with great service. Stay away from chipdealer!

Wow. Just WOW. EzFlash actually took the effort to mail you a set even though they can always push away the responsibility? That is seriously awesome business ethics they practice there!

 

[Deaddy]

It was Extreme Flash Advance, and yeah Fly is a great guy. He tried negotiating with chipdealer and when they quit responding to him he set me up with kicktrading.

I can finally give a review now. I live in the Central United States.

I ordered one SuperCard-MiniSD, and one SuperKEY from RealHotStuff the evening of the 14th. I paid by PayPal. I received a tracking number for USPS (worthless tracking system, but I got a number either way) a few minutes after my order went through.

Of course their server crashed and my account was lost from their website, which prompted a volley of emails reassuring me that everything was still golden. Email response time was within minutes, not hours, very good.

Well, today, the 17th, I received my order. Shipping label showed it went out on the 15th.

Communication is excellent.
Very quick shipping.
Product arrived safely.

I am happy, which seems rare these days.

RealHotStuff = I would buy from again and I would recommend them.

Ahhhhhh my order from Real Hot Stuff was declined by my credit card. Turns out they were going to charge me $410 which was $300 over the original amount. Guess my fears for using credit card became a reality. Good thing the amount they charged pushed me past my credit limit. I sent them an email, I'll see what happens next.

 

[DragonStefan]

O.K I have ordered one at http://importshop.nl/! I'll hope i'll receive it soon.

greets

Ordered from KickTrading.ca:

M3-slim SD adaptor
Passcard3

Both came the day after it was shipped, a day or two late thanks to paypal but got it fine, I would order from them again

 

[wohoo]

Divineo.. i checked them 2 minutes ago.. first the prices and everything looked good (in dollars, 79.99) and i counted a M3 Mini SD to be almost exactly 600 swedish crowns...
and then, i saw the swedish flag (the link to the swedish verison of the site) and the prices were NOT the same at all.. after checking the "new" swedish price i saw that it was 849 (that's about $ 25-30 more!) swedish crowns!!

THAT'S a BIG diffrence... stupid site...

just as you know that their prices is VERY different depending on wich part of the shop you're in ;P

I ordered from www.codejunkies.com last monday and I have not heard anything. They charged my card within 5 minutes and the next day the order status said "Completed and despatched" but I haven't received any tracking numbers. I've emailed them twice now asking for a tracking number and called them 5 times but every time they say they have no available reps and kick me to voice mail. Very frustrating.

EDIT*** I finally got in contact with Codejunkies over the phone and they had already shipped it. Although they put me on hold forever, they gave me a UPS tracking number and it's estimated delivery is tomorrow. However, with the terrible service provided by them over the last week, I would NOT recommend ordering anything from them.

Please add Cheapmod (based in UK) to your list. They provide a first class service and their prices are among the cheapest.

My pre-order from Divineo came today!

I ordered one M3-miniSD and one PassCard3 from Divineo.com on 06/12/2006 knowing it was in perpetual pre-order status. The emails sent back and forth regarding the pre-order assured me that they get regular shipments in and fill the orders as fast as they can.

On the 19th I got a shipment notification from FedEx stating that the package would be picked up the 20th and be delivered by 10:30am CST on the 21st.

Well, at 10:10am today (the 21st), FedEx brought me my package!

I can't say that I enjoyed the wait, but the email communication was good and no promises were ever broken. The One day shipping was nice.

This is the third time I have ordered from Divineo.com and I have been happy each time. Twice within the last 30 days.

Finally got me a DS last week and I decided to go for a m3 sd with a passcard 3 and a 1gb kingston sd from gamersection. I ordered it last weekend, it was delivered at my place yesterday. No complaints at all!

Now, on with flashing the ds

 

[Houou]

Ordered from Robotpig last thursday. Selection is small, but they had exactly what I want (M3 SD Slim+Passcard 3) at a reasonable price - about 114$. Cheap shipping though! Only about 5$ for worldwide airmail. They (he?) shipped it two days later. I'll let you guys back on how fast shipping was and how it came out.

One thing I definatly liked about the site is paying with Paymate, a VERY good, secure way to pay... very proffessional despite the small fee for using it.

I bought my EZ-Flash IV for 40 euro and my EZ-Pass 2 for 20 euro. 9 euro for shipping to the Netherlands, 12 for the rest of Europe

. It's not really a shop, just a guy that imports from china and sells without making any profit. Dealt with him before, awesome service, quick on responding and nice packaging
