my kids bought 2 cheap dreamcast dance pads for like $24.90 and shipping was $25.00 , arrived in about 5 days. Will probably order from again if I can't find it locally, shipping is expensive :)

I got a GP32 from them recently, and stuff in the past.

The old Lik-Sang under old management was terrible.

The new management is reliable.

I recommend it now, but like GPF said - use it for software not hardware. Shipping on hardware is devastating.

Ouch - my wallet is still feeling the burn.

I have put a pre-order in for Trizeal along with Sonic Adventure 2 and some Maracas so when that arrives I'll post about it.

I am writing about Play Asia though as I recently bought 3 games and a VGA Box. The service was speedy and I was able to track it online.

Some thing that needs to made very clear to those thinking about importing is the other charges I incurred. I expected to pay Customs VAT on delivery which came to just under £20 (for goods valued at about £105). That was fine with me but what I didn't expect was for Parcel Force to charge me a £13.50 "Clearance Fee" for paying the VAT on my behalf priot to delivery to my address. I used the EMS speedpost option on Play Asia's site thinking that with Parcel Force handling the package in the UK that I'd be able to track it OK and sort out any probs if it didn't turn up etc. Everything was fine until asked to pay £33.14 in order to get my goods. So please be wary of this policy of Parcel Force. I feel that £13.50 is a little steep for paying a £20 VAT charge for me. It's the most expensive £20 loan I've ever had and I'd hate for others to unexpectedly get stung too.

Perhaps I should have picked a courier option instead for shipping as Lik-Sang has a DHL option and on their site it appears they charge a lot less for handling your customs VAT for you, charging a £1.25 or 2% admin fee (for individuals not business users).

I guess I'll find out when my Trizeal etc comes in from Lik-Sang.
