    I've been having a few problems with DealExtreme lately so I've been trying a few places.

    You can look at http://www.supercarddsr4.com/. I think they're based in HK. So far, all 5 orders I've placed have come through. All cards working 100%. I now have 5 very happy Mario Kart racing buddies. Lol. :)

    Free shipping worldwide too, which I think is pretty standard now anyway.

    wahhh!, they super expensive compare to dealxtreme, for example
    dstt at supercarddsr4 is GBP 15.53
    dstt at dealextreme is US$ 6.29, about GBP 4.50

    I saw another place to buy, over at gbatemp.net forum is focalprice.com. (Prices are similar to dealextreme.) I only made one order so far, still waiting for it, so no comments on it yet.

    Yah, they're more expensive than D.E... like I said though, been having probs with them in terms of shipping/product quality so I decided to try another site.

    If you're shopping for price, obviously it's pretty easy... just find the cheapest site possible and order. I order a lot more in volume so shipping time/product quality was a concern for me (not fun when 4 of ur friends tell u their cards are DOA).

    who knows.. they prob all come from same factory. lol. So far though, http://www.supercarddsr4.com/ hasn't let me down that's all. I'll check focalprice.com too... doesn't hurt! Lemme know when u get ur shipment. :)
