    $79 is a nice price if you can avoid paying import duties.

    When they do a DM500HD Cable version maybe I'll risk ordering one

            From my experience shipping is hit and miss with them and can take quite a long time, I waited 2 months on a few r4 ds cards, had a nightmare time with them over a missing package too and would never use again, but there are many many people who would give you a different opinion to mine, sorry but you may as well know ugly side of them too.

              I always get stuff off them in 5-10 days.
              They seem to have sped up their delivery service in the last few months.

                    If you use DHL you are generally more likely to get hit with a customs charge.

                    I would guess the guy with R4 cards waited so long was because of a stock shortage maybe. Always found DX pretty quick

                      Afraid not smoggie, the guy with the R4 cards was told time and again they were posted, no mention os stock shortage ever. I'm giving my experience others have fared better. Good luck if you decide to purchase from them, I hope you fare better than I did.

                          But have you ever imported a single package over ?36 ($59) which is the import duty limit for items marked as GIFT?

                          I've bought 10's of items from them in the past but because it is free delivery I've always bought them individually which has always kept the price for each package below even the non-GIFT limit of ?18 ($30).

                            Any update on this billy?

                            I am really tempted by the box but would prefer to know if it is any good before I purchase

                            Thanks for being the guinea pig hehe
