    Alright, just wanted to ask whether you get slammed with import charges on games when your order reaches the country and if so how much are they?

    Order one at a time. This way you keep the value of your order below €50.

    It's been discussed countless times before if you did a search

    Apologies for dragging this up, but was going to order some stuff off play-asia that amounts to just over 60 yo yos.
    Would it be safer to make two seperate orders, and in that case would it simply mean order one, and then the next directly after, or wait a couple of days for transaction two?

    They're seperate packages then so you shouldn't need to wait a couple of days.

    I haven't been stung for customs with Play-Asia packages at all, one package last December was 2 games aswell and they didn't stop it.

    Got R6 vegas and double agent from play asia yesterday, marked at full value ($90) and no charges. Now that the xmas rush is over I'd say the revenue have switched resources to other concerns, new tax year and all...
