    I ordered about €100 worth of stuff from them a few years ago and it didn't get hit. Since then they have stepped up efforts to catch packages coming through though so you might get hit. Their prices are similar to videogamesplus.ca actually. I'd recommend buying from VGP as you will have them for release here most likely. The only way you can guarantee getting them in time for the PS4 release here if buying from playasia is to use expensive shipping. The standard free shipping takes 3-4 weeks IIRC.

    BF4 on playasia is $61.77 Canadian dollars. videogamesplus.ca have it for $59.99 Canadian.

    I have ordered several 360 games from them in the past and haven't been caught.

    Best tip is to order one item at a time, generally they are less likely supposedly to inspect smaller packages.

    Hi, just looking for some advice about this site.

    Is there any region locks on the games (ps vita).

    How much is shipping to Ireland.

    Is there a difference between the Asian and US games, for example, Batman black gate is €32.93 on one from the US and €29.27 from Asia?

    I order from them nearly every week, their tuesday sales are amazing. Never been hit by customs.

    Check the product description, it will tell you if it's region free or not.

    I've used Play Asia a couple times and have never been hit :pac:

    I also don't mean to hijack this thread but since its here theres no need to create a new one

    ... As gamestop and the like will be charging €70 for PS4 games I'm simply refusing to buy from there.

    So how likely am I to receive the games for launch if I order off VGP?
    I've never used them before

    VGP always deliver to me within 7 days. I plan on getting a few games from them next week so should have them in plenty of time for the PS4 release here.

    Thanks, sounds good :pac:

    Anyone know what the deal is with the DLC? or has been on the current gen at least. Obviously a lot of these pre orders are coming with exclusive DLC... are we able to enter those codes in PSN and download here?
