For those who haven't gotten their Sanity games yet, try emailing enquiries@sanity.com.au or going to the contact page on their website....my RE5 & SR2 hadn't shipped for a week, so I sent an email asking about the status - they shipped half an hour later. Coincidence? Maybe... I sent an email to them a week bad asking about its status, and they just told me that because some items were out of stock and I selected to have everything ship together, they will be waiting for the rest to come in first. However just today I got an email confirmation saying that they have shipped all my other games except for those that were not in stock. I don't know if that means that they will not be sending me those other games or if they will wait and see or what.

Sanity sale:
3x Burnout Paradise Did you actually get yours? I heard several people say that Sanity can't get this any more, and they won't be fulfilling the orders. If you did get yours... BASTARD! LOL. I ordered it too, and I was told that they don't have any :\

this site is based on dishonest trading and manipulation of various retail systems
Sorry, but no. This site is based on trying to make a popular hobby more affordable for many people, including myself. The fact is that SOME of the members here will 'abuse' the system for their own personal gain, but all systems have similar troubles they are forced to face. The fact these retailers have continued to offer these deals time after time again only goes to show that the retailers are not being disadvantaged, or they would have stopped them long ago.

They messaged me back after my long rant to them and said the following:
"we apologize for any inconvenience caused. all units are brand new and the package has been opened by our team/supplier to provide the correct australian compatible adapter and any non-australia compatible adapter is removed from the package. please note that different stock could be from different suppliers (local/overseas) depending on the stock availability. regardless of where the stock come from, all units are fully covered by our warranty. in the case if the unit has any problem within its warranty period, please feel free to contact our technical support department through a support ticket here."
It's weird how it wasn't even mentioned on the item listing that the unit was an overseas model. I know DS retail games are region free, but, to the best of my knowledge DSiWare (Is that the name of it?) is region locked.
I'm not overly impressed with them at the moment, as it should of clearly been stated that it was not an Australian model (which most people would expect it would be coming from an Australian online store.
And another thing... it seems weird how they were "replacing the official charger with an accessory pack" to compensate for the delay, I think they were trying to be sneaky so people wouldn't notice that it's a foreign product.
Thank god I didn't buy a PSP Go too.
I wouldn't accept that if I were you. DSiWare and DSi exclusive games are indeed locked to region. I would personally demand my money back.

That does sound a bit dodgy if you ask me. I personally haven't used them before but seeing as it was being sold as new (right?) and the official charger comes packaged with the DSi in the box, well, I'm not really sure what's going on there. Either way, something isn't right about it.

On DealExtreme when I am ready to pay I click the Express Checkout Paypal option (choice 1) and it then takes you to a log in to paypal page, where I enter my paypal email and pwd. This is the log on section they are referring to, so maybe the other way is an automatic deduction from your paypal account...not sure.
Well I just bought some stuff from focalprice.com and the only checkout option I saw was an instant checkout. I spent over $50 though, so I'll see how it goes either way :p

A little off topic, but does anyone know how in demand Uncharted 2 has been at JB? I want the steelbook version, so I don't want to know how soon I need to get to a store to preorder. Thanks
