    Thanks for the updates on Volumerate.

    I ordered on 23/11 and picked the standard shipping.
    Whilst I received the order confirmation I never received
    any confirmation it had shipped or the tracking number.
    I mailed them last night for an update and they replied
    early this morning stating it had shipped on 27/11 along
    with the tracking number.

    Yep - thats the one.

    Or - order this 1GB (STG£7.99 / €11.18) or this 2GB (STG£12.99 / €18.17) from mx2.co.uk - good price & free shipping.

    volumerate seem to have a lead time of 2 to 3 days from ordering now. Supercard are about $10 more expensive, hard to tell if they have stock though.

    Has anybody ordered from http://www.gameyeeeah.com/r4ds-c-36.html Was thinking of ordering from them and selecting the dhl option for delivery.

    I have ordered the R4 from them over 4 times with no problems. Best off using DHL for piece of mind too.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,222 ✭✭✭Scruff


    what are the chances of getting caught with customs with ordering from them with DHL? Looking to get 2 or 3 R4s, would i be better off just ordering the R4 of gameryeeah and getting the memory cards from mx2.co.uk rather than them all together as the value would then be $150+?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,384 ✭✭✭5500


    If using volumerate i reccomend the ems shipping,i recently used the standard free shipping and it took circa 3 weeks to get here compared to 5 days once posted via ems


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,222 ✭✭✭Scruff


    Use the following coupon code with yer purchaces of R4 DS, Supercard, EZ-Flash V and M3 DS Real from www.gameyeeeah.com and get 5% off!!!

    Code: GBATEMP

    Ordered from supercardsnds late last Friday and arrived today Friday afternoon using ems $22 extra.
    Handy if your going to leave it late for an xmas present :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,416 ✭✭✭randombar


    Arrived all right but to my bloody cork address, have to wait till monday to get my hands on it! BAH!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,139 ✭✭✭Orange69


    I ordered another R4 from Supercardnds.com which shipped after one day. Its in the post now.

    I noticed that they have increased the price of their MicroSD cards! They now charge $38 for a 2GB card (from $24 as far as i recall)! Instead go to dvd.co.uk and you can get a 2GB sandisk card for 13GBP ($26).

    I initially bought a 1GB card with my R4 but have decided to give that one to my sister and get a new one with a 2gb card. The extra gig makes all the difference imo!

    I have to say, the R4 is a must have for anyone getting a ds!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,076 ✭✭✭✭event


    got mine yesterday, works perfect :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,326 ✭✭✭Zapp Brannigan


    Ordered from supercardsdnds on the 18th of November. No sign of it yet :( I did use jst the standard shipping option though.

    Ordered with standard shipping on the 13th Nov. Received it today. I'd say you'll get it next week.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,169 ✭✭✭Grawns


    Since I got the R4 I am so totally addicted to my ds.

    Have just ordered another 2 R4s (from Volumerate) but am getting the memory cards from the uk this time. Used Moby Memory www Have used them before and no complaints.

    I was ordering a bunch of cards, 2GB M2 @ £16.99, 1GB SD @ £5.99, 2GB SD @ £9.99, card reader at £4.99 and the all important 2 x 2GB micro SD @ £10.99 ( €15.40 each).

    ( Have bought prezzies for people like New phone, digital photo frames and R4s) Shipping was £8 (€11) and the total including shipping was €95

    The way I see it is it keeps the value down on the hong kong goods ( in case of inspection) and saves me money.

    Here's hoping it all gets here before xmas!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,139 ✭✭✭Orange69


    supercardnds.com sent me a picture of my package this morning?? Very strange.. Anyone else get this?

    The tracking number says that it is with HK post. Some small ebayers do this but i have never seen an online store do it.


  • Posts: 2,874 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    what a pisstake. I ordered on the 13th of November and it shipped on the 24th.

    Lets play guess the tracking number!!

    finally got it this morning from volumerate. 20 odd days in total, which seems to be the norm :/


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,083 ✭✭✭carbsy


    Why are people buying from GameYeeah? They seem very expensive for the R4? I'm in the market for 2 x R4 2gb for Crimbo but at this stage I think I'll go with a UK company for speed of delivery being the festive season.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,330 ✭✭✭Gran Hermano


    I've ordered a couple from both Volumerate and Supercardnds over
    the last few weeks. Volumerate seems much slower on the delivery
    side. If anyone is looking for delivery before Christmas, I'd recommend
    http://www.supercardnds.com/ with EMS delivery, I placed an order
    on 29th November and it's showing now on An Post as received in Ireland
    today - meaning I should get it mid-week this week.

    (My Volumerate order placed 23rd November is still somewhere between China
    and Ireland!)

    I just compared what I got from GameYeeah, which was one R4cartridge and one 1gb card plus DHL shipping for $72 compared to $82 with supercardnds and EMS shipping.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,083 ✭✭✭carbsy


    Ah ok ... I'll grab it from the UK for about 35 sterling each + postage but at least I'll have them in a few days.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,416 ✭✭✭randombar


    Is there anyone buyign an extra one at the moment? GOt mine the other day and de girlfriend has taken a shine to the whole thing! Could buy two off someone!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,918 ✭✭✭Steffano2002


    Lads, I found out about the R4 in this very thread and I have to say it's amazing! What a wonderful piece of kit! I don't have a DS myself but we got one for Xmas for my nephew and I have to say I'm impressed!

    Might be getting myself a DS now! ;)

    Yeah but that $72 included DHL shipping. Surely that would still be cheaper than I guess £40


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,429 ✭✭✭✭star-pants


    Jebus after ordering on the 13th of October and them taking the money and me sending emails (thanks to you guys in here giving addresses) Consoleup finally responded to me lastnight, saying it was in the post and should be here in 3-5 working days.
    *sigh* better be!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,616 ✭✭✭milltown


    finally got it this morning from volumerate. 20 odd days in total, which seems to be the norm :/

    Was that 20 odd days from ordering to delivery, or 20ish days in transit?

    I ordered one on the 29th of November and it now says they are assembling my order. What are my chances of seeing it in time for Christmas I wonder?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,467 ✭✭✭Lucifer

    If you google for R4DS you will get to know lot of things. It does wonders for your Nintendo DS Lite.

    their whole site is down, looks like mail and everything else too.

    PING volumerate.com (211.157.127.41): 56 data bytes
    --- volumerate.com ping statistics ---
    5 packets transmitted, 0 packets received, 100% packet loss

    well, that's gone spectactarly bad for me. i looked it up at the weekend, everything was hunky dory, got the guys at work interested and after chatting to everyone i know put in an order for 8 of them for me and the lads with 1gb microsd's etc, 35e each inc shipping all in, 280e altogether.

    now it is starting to look like they've done a runner.

    if their site isn't back up and i've got a response from them by the time the 'lead time' they claimed is up i'll be contacting my credit card company.

    as of now i would highly discourage anyone from ordering from volumerate (if their website ever comes back up) at all. :mad:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,055 ✭✭✭wait4me


    I was having a problem with the volumerate site a few weeks ago too but then I hit the link on the dealextreme site and bingo I got in. Try that before despair :)
    Yup - tried it just there and got in. :):):):)

    Ordered mine on the 26th November via EMS,since the 30th November it still says dispatched fro Guangzhou sorting centre, looking at yours 4 day's later in was in Ireland,so hopefully mine will follow the same.Did you use the same tracking number all the way over?
