When I first saw Gadget Asia I must admit to being a little suspicious as I have seen other similar sites which have been fakes. I did some research and found a few forums with people saying they had received their purchases without any problems so I thought I would give it a try.

BUYERS BEWARE .
I purchased two nintendo ds lites from this scam of a company. I did look and ask a question of Guarantee's.I was told they had a no quibble repair or replacement warranty.
When i had to return one, because of a faulty on/off switch, they said it would cost £40 to fix or if i wanted it sent back in it's unfixed state it would cost £15.
SO MUCH FOR THE GUARANTEE....WHAT A RIPOFF..I ALSO THINK THEY WERE REFURBED.
I have had 22 communication ...

Having purchased a nintendo ds lite which was faulty. The unit was meant to be sent to the manufacturer to repair or they would replace. This wasn't fixed and the faulty unit was sent back from a guy living in a flat (so called Logistics team). I don't believe this was returned to the manufacturer and was fobbed off with excuses after excuses. They have no intention of refunding or replacing any faulty items.
They mention refunding your postage ...

Advantages: None - don't know why I ever placed an order with them in the first place Disadvantages: Pay for goods and don't receive them
...for a DS card with Gadget Asia, but it never arrived. Opened several tickets with them and only got a response from one - which wasn't helpful at all - claiming the item had been despatched and I should wait 30 working days for it to arrive. Their website states 5-10 working days. Also (I could be wrong) but I think if I had waited the 30 WORKING days I may have been out of time to raise a dispute on Paypal. I eventually opened a dispute with Paypal ...

Advantages: None Disadvantages: hassle, goods that don't work, postage costs, stress, no escalation procedure for complaints
Gadget Asia sent me two Nintendo DS's for my children. they have both had to be repaired twice. They look reconditioned rather than new to me. They are refusing to send back one console until I send the other one in (which has failed again). I don't trust them anymore and want them to send back the first console so I can check it is really working before I send back the other one. I've had to send back consoles 4 times now and it costs me £10 each ...
