Hardware > Where do you buy you flash linker ?

#1540 - mcmcdonald - Sun Jan 19, 2003 11:29 pm

Hi!

I am looking around for a gba flash linker and have found the following sources:

www.ps2modchip.com ( the cheapest)
www.gamegizmo.com
www.gbax.com ( = www.cdworld.co.uk)
www.easybuy2000.com

Where do you buy your flash linker ?
Do you buy the new usb version ?

Has anybody experiences with ps2modchip.com (because of the low price) ?

Thanks
McMc

According to this comment, Hong Kong Toys (ps2modchip.com) is a well-known scam operation.

i got mine from www.cdworld.co.uk - and i would thoroughly recommend it to anybody... express delivery, reasonably cheap and run by a top bloke.

Gamegizmo is allright. I got my usb xtreme within a week of ordering. They
have offices based in New York and Canada, but the hardware itself was
shipped from hong kong..oh well =)

Gamegizmo is EXPENSIVE!

I like www.success-hk.com. Their prices are a LOT lower than most other dealers, especially gamegizmo, and they're pretty darn fast.

I ordered a XG-Flash 128 kit on last friday and got it monday, from Hong Kong to Chicago.

Success-hk price $95 shipped EMS

Gamegizmo price $154 shipped EMS

Hi!

That's really cheap !

Are there more people with experiences with sucess-hk.com ?

Or experiences with www.gbalinker.com (119$ for 128M) ?

Thanks

Well, I don't mean to beat a dead horse, but success-hk has the F2A Linker _256M_ kit for the same $119.
