Has anyone imported a handheld/console from Nippon Yasan before & used FedEx? Do Nippon Yasan still mark the value down when using Fed Ex or declare the real value?
 
Vita is still 99€ at Mediamarkt.de
I reached out to them if there is any possibility whether or not they can send it outside of Germany. I'll keep you guys updated
 
Can anyone help me find a good HD computer monitor? I'd rather not spend much more than £100, but I'm hoping there's a good deal out there among all the boxing day sales.

Would this be a good one?

I have bought a few monitors from this company in the past - http://www.nrgit.biz/index.php

They sell refurbished Dell monitors and are Offical Dell partners, you can usually get some nice ips screens for cheap.

This is a nice ips monitor if you can stretch to £149 -

Buy it on the US marketplace and its $30 according to XE Currency Converter

30.00 USD = 19.2839 GBP

Also make sure you buy it in a non tax sale state more info here:

But don't foget, if you're not using Paypal or equivalent transnational money transfer service, i.e. using your bank card instead or Amazon payments, then your bank will levy on a fee of usually £1-1.50 depending on the financial institution and the transaction rate will be slightly worse than the current market rate.

Even paypal has an awful conversion rate though.
 
Yep, I was just mentioning how some websites like Amazon don't let you use Paypal to avoid the fee.

Aye true, I mentioned it more because sometimes taking the fee can actually end up being cheaper than paypals conversion rate.

It's very bank dependant though.

I bought a New 3DS with a few games last month. The total value on the slip was the true price but they'd listed each item as being for $5 each. Weird way to do it but I got no extra bill for it so who am I to judge.
 
What's the word on the New 3DS from Australia/Asia to import to Sweden/EU?
Region lock?
Cheap price`?
Good place to buy?
Compatible with Cubic Ninja hack?

This is the perfect tread for you:

1.
The AUS/NZ model is the same region as UK/Europe and is confirmed as compatible with all UK/EU games and NNIDs. Once you turn the console on for the first time, simply set your country and off you go. Amazing! There’s no site with a handy list of deals, so I’ll just list them here:

2. It is region locked (NL and AUS will work with UK/EUR since they're both PAL)

Skyrim Legendary edition (All DLC included) is on GMG at a lower price (in £ at least at £6.79) than it was on Steam earlier this week.. £5.44 with code WINTER-SALE20-GROGRE. Only lower place was at £5 on uPlay and £6.39 at getGames (I'm guessing no Steam code on uPlay).
.

Also it is a competitive price against the dollar by about 20-30%, so no use purchasing it in dollars.

Cheers. Thanks for the reply. :) I've used NY lots of times for software but wasn't sure about handhelds.

I've just had a look at Nin Nin (never used them before) & they work out even cheaper (£20) using Amazon France with zero extra customs/vat. Hhmm.

now I'll just anguish about what to do next.
I guess I'll have to tie it to UK Nintendo instead of Sweden Bergsala Nintendo for it to work?

Any cheap PS3 deals around yet?

What about Vita/PS TVs? Don't mind importing. Just want it cheap.

There's nothing worse than when you can't find a decent deal on something you're after. It took a month of waiting before I found a decent 3DS XL deal for the GF.

It's all about the PSBONES this year.

My PS3 is still working, but it's one of the original fat models and sounds like a jet engine the moment you turn it on. It's already died once of overheating and I'm still not entirely sure how I got it going again.

Really want a slimmer model that'll run cooler and consume less electricity. Ideally the Slim and not the Super Slim, but I'd have to buy used to get one of them :/
