Order #23712 (PreOrder)
Order Date: Friday 03 November, 2006 Order Total: £80.48
Products
1 x DS-XTREME 4Gb £74.99
1 x USB Power Charge Cable For NDS Lite £2.99
I ordered the DS-X 4Gb cart on 3rd Nov and the MrModChips website clearly had it down as "available" and "in stock".
Then a few days later it changed to "pre-order".
On the 6th Nov they took payment from my bank account.
The item went through 2 cycles of being in stock and preorder over the next 2 weeks.
2 weeks after placing the order I used their helpdesk system to enquire as to why I had not received the item.
I got a very abusive message back saying it had been a "pre-order":-
"You should try reading information on the front page
http://www.mrmodchips.co.uk/catalog/news.php?news_id=99
Before makign stupid assumptions and making an idiot of yourself.
Also as taken from the shipping and returns page which again you have decided not to bother reading."
I messaged back saying when I had placed the initial order it was stated as being "in stock".
At this point the criminals who run this site disabled my account so I couldn't (A) enquire anymore & (B) even see my order.
This site is run by criminals and I am in contact with my bank, PROTX & Trading Standards to bring a prosecution against them.
The MrModChips site is not even in the UK but in Thailand.
I'm not alone - I have googled for MrModChips and found *loads* of complaints/rip-offs/abuse & racist comments by them:-

In 6 years of ordering goods on-line this is the first negative experience I have had - the lesson is to avoid the smaller & cheaper outlets and go for established names like Divineo, etc.
You wanted a Miracle, I give you the F. B. Eye !!
