Ordering a stick but where?

Ry

I'm looking to get a Round 2 TE but can't seem to find anyone who ships to Ireland. I did find one on ebay but they're looking for 75 quid just for shipping on top of the 160 dollars for the stick so they can shove that up their asses tbh.

Anyone know a good place online to order?

Any help appreciated.
Thanks

edit: Dunno what "round 2" TE means though? Is that new artwork or something?

It's the one Ken B has. All black.

Standard TE - White sides.


Round 2 TE - Black sides and different artwork.

Oh, right, I thought that was custom art. No idea then, you can get a round 1 TE delivered off Amazon for 110 quid or so though at the moment.

Ry

Yeh I'm guessing the "round 2" just isn't available yet then. amazon says early january which is annoying. Was hoping someone might know where they can be acquired before that.

Dunno man tbh, maybe ask on SRK? Maybe just get the normal TE anyway and custom it down the road

But I understand of you've your heart set on a particular one. Its nice to have the one you want when your spending so much cash.

I think he got it at a Vega cosplay event for beautiful people.
That or one of his mates brought t back from Canada when they were over there.

Ry

Yeh I don't have a mate in Canada at the moment Maybe www.amateincanada.com would sort me out but they're pricey I heard. Plus then i'd have a Canadian mate which I'm not sure I'm ready to deal with so I'm hoping for other possibilities.

This is tempting though.

I really did want the round 2 though just cuz I loves it.

You will be hit with import duty when ordering something that heavy from play-asia. They are however an excellent site and it will be delivered within a week.

102 euro plus the import shouldn't be too bad though. I'm even considering the standard round 1 TE from Amazon at this stage cuz I'm impatient Just wish somewhere did the round 2 seems like a silly thing to not be able to get when it seems so available elsewhere.

Serious? I thought Amazon wouldn't deliver bulky things like that and p&p is free? I thought it would be at least £140. Thank you so very much for this piece of information

@Ry: On the note of importing a stick, I noticed that its an X360 stick which is either JAP/NTSC Region coded so I doubt if its possible to use it on your X360 here. This is where the PS3 really wipes the floor with the X360

I'm gonna use it on PC though but that's a good point none the less. I'll probably order from Amazon in that case. Maybe i'll just Pre-order the round 2 and be thankful when it arrives next month.

Yeh but Amazon won't ship them to Ireland. This is the problem Amazon.co.uk will but don't have them.

They do deliver them now. Well I got an SE off them anyway and friend is getting a TE.

The second edition TE's are not shipping to Ireland from Amazon.com where they are available as the sticks aren't officially released here till end of january.

This says they're not available till the end of January but that you can pre-order so I might end up doing that if there's no where that's able to sell them and ship them to Ireland now. I was just hoping people might have known where did have them.

Yeah, was talking about the first ones. Sorry for the confusion!

Argh! Sorry, I didn't notice the seller bit. Text wasn't obvious.

Leprekaun

In all fairness though Ry, ofcourse its a matter of preference but is it really worth forking out an extra £40 when the parts are exactly the same? Something that I've personally noticed is that once someone starts getting into the game, you forget about aesthetics and left thinking "I could've bought a game with that money"

A sign of evil, any stick bought on that day will be bad luck for the owner.

Aside from the artwork, is there any hardware difference between the 2 TE's?

I ordered my original TE from gameseek and it arrived pretty fast once it came into stock. They have the TE Round 2 up atm.

Ry

There is an item in your basket that can't be shipped outside the UK Mainland. Wtf? They won't ship it either. That's great.

Ry don't be getting a 360 stick when you're on PS3, SSf4 wont be on pc for a while after the console versions, thats if they even release it on PC (the fookin BETTER :mad:)

Leprekaun

I've been thinking about getting the TE as a gift for someone but their birthday is this Sunday so would anyone know if I ordered from Amazon, would it at least arrive say on Monday or Tuesday or would it take a while? I tried to see if I can ask these things through Amazon but I have to order the stick first because they require the Order ID number (Real smart system :rolleyes:)

Cunny-Funt

I ordered my SE from there over a weekend. It was sent out on the monday, arrived on the wednesday.
