Disapointed with IMPORT service. Anyone know anywhere with quick delivery on GAMECUBE

I ordered from TAU and not only have they not notified me of a potential delivery date but they have ignoed ALL my email and dont answer the phone. They also have a 10-14 day delivery period which will run into Xmas.

I think I iwll have to cancel my order with them and try again...

Anyone know of a good AMERICAN site that is exporting gamecubes reliably? You know like a good GAMES site or nintendo specific one?

ot Ebay (can be dodgy) or DVDBOXOFFICE (none in stick).

www.lik-sang.com are very good. They are based in Hong Kong but provide a US/Jap compatible GC.


But, you WILL get hit by Customs so be aware!

How long is delivery times?

What did you pay on Custos?

Will they doctor invoice or even not put in. That way you can claim it second hand

Lik-Sang can get one to you within 3-4 working days via UPS (costs about £36)


Customs hits are £45 to £60 depending.


So that's £198 for the GC; £36 for shipping and £45 Tax = £279 for a modded GC.

Not bad.

The trick is to ship any games separate from the GC. You should be able to sneak those passed Customs.


Oh, and no they won't doctor the invoice.
