Same as everybody else here. Ordered a sky3ds card, a week later my order status still says awaiting shipment so I contact them through their website and get a response from a guy named Jim saying they needed to check the product for compatibility or something and shipments were slightly delayed but my order was shipped out and would take 5-21 day to get there. 2 weeks later order status still awaiting shipment so I try to contact them again to get a tracking number but haven't been getting a response. After reading these reviews I filed a dispute charges claim with my bank. Hopefully I can get my money back.

I've ordered from here twice, and both times have received my product. I think a lot of people are posting a review and not giving it enough time for the package to arrive. My first package arrived to me in about 10 days or so. The second time I ordered, which was about 3 months later, the package took almost 20 days to get to me. Not because it was shipped late, but because that is how long the post office and customs took to sort the clearance of the package and get it out for delivery.

When speaking to the post office (I was worried about the delay and thought it may be lost) they said that it was in customs and that they had absolutely no control over how long customs would take to clear the parcel. I guess my point it, if even the POSTAL SERVICE has no say or control over how long it takes for the package to pass customs, how could a web site have control over how long customs takes.

Have no issue with cards, both work as advertised.

I had like a million questions before I ended up actually buying and each of my emails was responded to within a day at most, and a lot of the time is was just a few hours. A far cry from the non-responses most of these type of sites seem to be known for.

Once I got my card I was putting the wrong kernel on it, and I had to ask for help, and just as quickly as before I placed an order they responded and helped me out and let me know what I needed to do to make it work.

I ordered 3 R4 cards 3 months ago, after not receiving them I emailed them 3 times through the contact page and got no response. To see if I could get them to answer me I contacted them by the same method and said I was trying to get pay for an order on the website but was having trouble getting the payment to go through. They answered that email within 24 hours but as soon as I asked about my order I got no response. Absolute scam stay away from them. Surely there is some way to close them down?

Just received my Sega Saturn Modchip from this shop. I ordered on April 23 and received the package on Friday April 27th. They were very helpful when I was asking questions and even helped me through the installation of the saturn chip when I was confused about which cable to use with my Saturn. Overall it has been an excellent experience and I have shopped at other sites that sell mod products and most of them don't even bother to reply or if they do, their emails are short and not very helpful. I would recommend r43ds.org to anyone looking to mod their systems.

This company provide little to no contact unless you threaten them with the credit card company. I purchased a Stargate 3DS for my son, it didn't come and I had no emails from them for 3 weeks so I contacted them, 4 weeks after the original purchase they tell me they sent it already but there is no proof of that, no tracking etc... They then say in the same day they have sent it again. It took another month to arrive in the UK, yes that's right this company are in China and you will get charged import duty on this purchase which for me was £12.25. The service has been terrible, they get back to me 3 or 4 days after I email and they don't apologise or even admit that they didn't even send the original parcel. I would say contrary to other reviews that this company is a scam. They do not mention that they are based in China on their website and furthermore it feels like you are ordering either from Europe or even the UK. I would definitely never order again from them and I would also warn anyone else off them. Truly terrible customer service.

Ordered A GBA linker a month ago. Ask them to cancel right the day after. Still no answer, was debited the wrong price, didnt cancel, "contact us" page not working.
DEFINITELY A SCAM!
DO NOT ORDER ON THIS WEBSITE!

Ordered R 4s for the grandchildren at the beginning of December - noting that carriage would take 2 to 3 days. Sent a tracking number on the 8th December by the firm - have tried to track several times over the past week - tracking number 'not found' by the carrier. I have sent three e mails to the firm in the past four days - no reply. No telephone number to call.

Had enough, getting the items elsewhere to make sure of something for grandsons for Christmas. Have just cancelled the order and will expect my money back

Jan 23rd update - the r4's arrived at the beginning of January- 5 weeks after ordering --! They came from China - not Ireland as stated on their blurb - want to return them but guess what - only Chinese on/in packet - no understandable address and no response to e mails asking for details to return - a very expensive lesson - don't go there!

Good all around service and the product is really good. Works just as they advertise it. I've been experimenting now with watching some movies on the 3DS... rather, having the kids watch movies on their 3DS systems. Great for long drives and you can load up 3-4 movies on the 8GB microsd card that came with the card itself.

Customer service was courteous and responsive. I had some issues initially with setup and installation of the menu system but was guided step by step by a fellow named Jim and he got me up and running in no time.

Hi everyone,

I've been buying online for a long time now and it is the first time I get ripped off.

I bought an item on January 24th. I was charged in the following minutes... I wrote them few weeks later, no answer... Then in March, they changed the status of my order for «Shiiped». I figured that my item was back order and that I should receive it in the coming weeks... I wrote them again 3-4 weeks later... Still no answer...

I wrote tham again few days ago and once again, no answer...

This is the worst scam I've been in contact with. Stay far away from this website.

Regards!

Do not order from this site. After 2 weeks of "awaiting shipping", I sent them a message every other day (3 total) without a response on their "24 hour message reply" page. Looked at reviews on other sites and saw it was a scam. Called my card company to dispute the charges. They tried to call the parent company iCOMBUY while I was on hold. My card company said iCOMBUY's number was disconnected. The charges were reversed. I have since ordered from realhotstuff.com (yeah cheesy name), which ships out of NJ. Received my product in a few days. (Paid for FedEx, got tracking number) DO NOT BUY FROM R43DS.ORG!
