    I was hoping to get some help on buying a psp, i was checking amazon and ebay recently when i stumbled upon a link on amazon that took me to a site called axn-international.com, here they are advertising 1Gb psp's delivered to ireland for E735 for 5 consoles. Just wondering if anyone ever bought from them, usually when it looks too good to be true and all that.

    They're in Indonesia. Would the shipment not get stuck in customs?

    I wouldn't imagine so, well the only stuff i have bought from asia are nokia covers and they made it no problem. I wonder if you have control over money transfers, in that the money doesn't clear until you have proof that the items have been dispatched. i sent in a dummy order and they sent me back their bank details and the totals but no real contact info

    best advice is just to check adverts.ie

    if something looks like a great deal then its just a scam.

    Only expensive stuff gets stuck in customs and this definatley would.

    As a rule of thumb I run away when someone is looking to get paid by bank transfer as you have no come back once they recieve it.
