This is in reference to bigger packages, similar to that of an arcade stick. I was curious as to how long the average waiting time is for other costumers. I’m in the UK, but, all western costumer experiences with Play Asia are welcome as it might add some insight as to waiting time.
I need my FG fix and I don’t have a stick… slowly… going… insane…
EDIT; Also, does any one know where I might be able to buy a Qanba Q4 PCB ready wired?
From time when you order to time when that order arrives on your doorstep –
It was always around a month for my orders. That was also using EMS air/insured shipping.
I haven’t ordered from Play-Asia in over a year and have only placed orders with them 3-4 times.
If timeliness is your issue AND your product is in-stock/available from a local vendor, use the local vendor.
IF it’s something you can’t find in-country or is rare, then use Play-Asia but prepared for at least a month delay.
There’s no getting around it. It does take a while.
Oh, and always use tracking/insured shipping with larger orders ($65 or more US), too. You’re inviting thieves to steal your goods when you don’t go with insurance. You don’t know where your packages will travel through. Every continent and country has airports and delivery routes that are infamous for thievery. The odds of having your goods stolen go up tremendously when packages are uninsured.
