3ds XL bundle NA

[jakeypride]

Im wondering if anybody knows any sites that will ship over seas from Australia or the UK. DO NOT TELL ME YOU CANT, because I know you can. I found it on amazon UK but its over priced. Does anybody know of any other sites to check out?

You can wait til it's on ebay? I know game doesn't ship it over seas, not entirely sure about Nintendo. But if you order it directly from a company be prepared to pay a lot in foreign fees

Your best bet would be amazon or eBay. I know that all Australian sites that sell it won't ship overseas s

Oh, and not sure how Australia works but amazon uk isn't "over priced", that's how much it costs from most stores in the UK, most electronics here don't sell for the same price as they do in America . I paid $320 {without shipping/import fees} for my xl bundle in the uk, it costs more than in america, but that's the exchange rate so you probably won't find it cheaper than that regardless of how much an xl sells for in America. If anything you will pay even more than that simply because you'll have the import fees.

As kiti_in_wonderland says Amazon UK is not over priced, its what we have to pay.

I have shipped from Amazon US to myself here in the UK, yes its possible but its expensive as you have to pay the exchange rate your credit card (or paypal or whatever you use) decides on, which is never in your favour.
Plus expensive goods attract VAT and presumably the US has some sort of import duty as well?

I thought the US was going to get a New 3ds bundle with face plates? Personally I would go with this option if its available.
With a UK 3dsXL you could only play UK games so would have to import any you wanted (or download them from UK Nintendo) - again facing the exchange rate charges.

Edit: if I was set on buying a foreign console I would tend to look towards the Japanese version (albeit hard to figure the game out, but its possible) - as this would give me the option to play other games that have never made it over to the west.

Thanks so much guys, I didnt realize you wouldnt be able to play NA games on it. ��

 

[kiti_in_wonderland]

You can't play physical games but I do believe you can still use the eshop. But it might cost slightly more for games since it is in gbp not in dollars! But yeah, any old games you currently have won't be playable :/

Okay, actually. I need it so bad.
