Currently, Im a PAL gamer, I've managed to get some NTSC games from friends or family who have visited places that have NTSC game, but Im getting slightly annoyed. there are just so many good games coming out and I have to wait ages for games to be released, so I want to start importing. Im looking to buy games regularly from the site.

Ive seen many import sites and it looks like the most releiable, However, Ebay has some great prices, but I'm not sure how reliable it is buying consoles (something I will try and do if first couple of imports go well) and games from the USA to be shipped to the UK.

So from things you've heard of your past experiences, which one should I go for?

As far as I know, they dont ship consoles to the UK. They only ship to Canada and USA. I should actually e-mail them just to make sure.

sorry i did not know that you wanted to buy consoles. sorry about that.

eBay is a pretty safe bet, as long as you keep an eye on the feedback of sellers.

 

[psycho_snake]

I always make sure that the seller has 100% feedback, nothing less.

I've heard that powersellers are sometimes not reliable as normal members, is that true?

I think you get free shipping from www.dvdsoon.com and www.dvdboxoffice.com. But they don't lower the value or send as a gift...

 

[psycho_snake]

I've been told never to go with DVDboxoffice. People have told me their delivery time is horrible and thats if they are actually delivering

That would be correct, you never know when your DVDBO order will ship, and customer services from my experience isn't exactly keen on helping you either.

While VG+ generally don't ship consoles abroad you can persuade them easily if you ask nicely.

NCSX is excellent too, as long as they send you the right stuff They've mixed up my orders a couple of times.

Some power sellers are huge businesses with limited staff. I bought a bunch of JP DVDs from one and they didn't even have them in stock, it took weeks before they even shipped. And the DVDs, of course, turned out to be HK bootlegs.

Most smaller sellers (50-500 feedback) are dedicated and helpful people who have the time to answer your e-mail.
