"Japanese DS"

Why is no-one buying the Japanese DS? Liksang ran out of US ones a while ago, but the Jap ones are still there with 'within 24 hour' stock. They can be easily switched to English, so what's the matter?

I'm thinking about getting one now, but I may wait till the new year...

Nope, but why wait to find out? :-)

But I still haven't decided what to do, my finger still hovers on gbax.com's buttons, especially now I've sold my PS2. It's only saved by thinking about possibly being able to get another game or two for the same price after Christmas...

Ah so you know the price?

hmm. And pay more money after waiting till March? Nah. Besides, it's nice to have something before loads of other people...

Looking at him that'd be the first time in a while I'd expect.

:D Couldn't resist sorry :P

Get the UK version.

Well after cancelling I've decided to wait until after Christmas. It's not like I have all the time in the world to play it, and there's plenty of stuff to keep me occupied for now.

hm. Do I have £175.

It's really annoying. I want to have a DS in my hands, I don't want to wait until after Xmas, but if I do I'll get one much cheaper.

Just need to hold on a bit longer...

Well if Customs discover there's a $150 console and a game in the package, it'll be the full UK VAT plus customs charge, possibly taking it well over the GBAX.com price.

However, if they slap a charge on for a declared '$20 childrens toy' it won't be that much.

How much is it usually?

You could get lucky though, it's up to you!
