I thought I'd cancelled my Mario Kart order, but obviously not, as i receive the dispatch email yesterday. Does anyone know how long it will take to get here? It got sent out on Monday...

Thanks

If it got sent out on Monday, then I would say you'd either get it on Thursday or Friday.

I did think about importing, but I thought I could last a week without it as Tony Hawks is around this Friday.

I'm just jealous Moria that you'll soon be playing it very soon. :wink:

I received Warioware: Twisted from VGP in 3 days! They are very fast to dispatch stuff.

Anyway have fun Moria, if you get bored waiting you could always remove the space in my username on the WiFi Karts trial tournament group page!

Is it just me or VGP not replying to customer emails lately?

I haven't recieved a reply for quite a few days and they are normally very quick!

Have they shut for a holiday or something?

I haven't got mine yet... Tomorrow hopefully. I'm not really that bothered though, I wasn't expecting to get it until next Thursday from GamePlay, any sooner is just a bonus. I can't even play online until next week I think...

I haven't got mine yet... Tomorrow hopefully.Seeing as you say it was sent on Monday I'll be bloody surprised if it doesn't turn up tomorrow. I’ve only ever had one game take longer than 5 days to arrive from VGP, which was Meteos back in July.

:woops: Actually that’s not true, Nintendogs took longer but only because it was in transit during a bank holiday weekend. :heh:

i already tried putting my firewall on low and it still didnt work. one thing i did notice was that when i tried searching for an access point in my home it said NDS does not support the security settings even though i have it on WEP.

i then had my router selected to no security at all and done the test connection and it worked.

i thought i was there but when trying to start a wifi game it still failed.

I had no problem getting it online. Lucky me.

After playing this game online, the single player mode becomes pretty boring, actually.

Well my bro has a DS (and will have his own copy of the game) as well, so i'll be playing multiplayer with him, until this damn WI-FI thing works for me!

Quick question. If I buy three DS games from VGP at the same time...will they class the whole package as £10, and avoid Customs, or will I get hit by customs. I.E. Should I order them seperatly, or together in one package? Cheers for any help :D

They would ship them out seperately i reckon, then you won't get customs! I preordered more then two games released on the same day, before from them, and they always come seperately.

Does VGP protect the packages well for GBA games? Most of the times I imported GBA games from the US the boxes were totally smashed, and since I want to order the Castlevania 2-pack I was wondering if they are a good choice (I never used them before).

Thanks to everyone who recommened this company. I ordered a few games off them last week and they arrived today. I cant believe how fast they are and how resonable the prices are. Also their customers service is excellent as I enquired about my products and they replied the same day.

Has anyone paid by paypal with VGP? I decided to this time as I was using money from selling a game, but it's not showing up in my orders yet. Does it take longer to process an order when paying by paypal? I'm hoping to get it by Friday but I only ordered last night.

I had a quick look through their FAQ, and this came up;

Question : Why am I getting a payment confirmation from Paypal but my order doesn't appear in my history?

Answer : If you get an email confirming sent payment we did receive the payment and the order will be processed. The order does not appear in your history and you will not get any auto email confirmation when you order ships because you did not complete the order process. To ensure that you complete the order correctly make sure to click the "click here to continue" link on paypal after your payment is sent otherwise we will not fully receive your order for our records and it will not appear in your account history.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Question : I am still having problems with Paypal what can I do?

Answer : We now accept VISA, Mastercard and American Express. Please use this option if you are having trouble with Paypal. Also it is a really good option for people who do not have Paypal accounts as these sometimes take up to 2 weeks to create.

Have any questions email us at : customerservice@videogamesplus.ca



Is that any help? Did you maybe close the PAYPAL window rather than continuing? It may be worth emailing them to let them know.

Yes, via their Ebay account.
No problems at all, went through just like any other paypal payment.

It turns out I'd confused the system by using different paypal and VGP email addresses (as well as not properly completing the order). They emailed me once it was sorted and gave me 3 updates in one day, so can't complain.
