Anyone shop at Toys n Joys? How are they? reliable?

[Roufuss]

I dealt with them once. Dont remember what I ordered but they are reliable. Just expensive shipping as SoB stated.

And I ordered from Buyrite once, and everything went ok, but that dosen't mean they are reliable, it just means I got extremely lucky.

It really depends on what you order... I've ordered from them a few times and only once did I have no problems at all, the other times they sent me used games when they said they we're new... that's not very reliable to me

On a positive note they made up for everyone of their mistakes (which are far to frequent to be mistakes IMO), but calling Hawaii isn't cheap and they don't answer their emails as often as they should, maybe they are better now but I'd rather go elsewhere just to avoid a possible headache.

Once is better than none. I dont like Buywrong. I bought Sin & Punishment from them and they had their stupid stamp on the inner flap of the box.

I would have taken that chance for CFC 2.

The time I bought from Buyrite, was when I got Super Puzzle Fighter IIX for Dreamcast for 15 bucks... figured it was worth a shot.

But I did buy a Saturn from them, and six games, it was supposed to be all brand new... the Saturn had gunk all over it, it had no manuals whatsoever, and the best part is, the thing didn't even work at all, and I had to pay the shipping to send it back to them.

This was before I got into message boards and Ebay, so I thought this was a good deal at the time, years ago.

I took the chance with IIDX 4th Style and was lucky.

As for my Saturn Twinsticks, though... They took their sweet time.

I HATE freaking buyrite...one time (and only) they shipped me some Saturn games...that ws fine...but they didn'y bother to use bubble wrapping or anything...so the games were just kicking around in the box till they FINALLY arrives..thank god they were new or the CDR would havebeen messed (the cases were falling apart in the plactic)...

L O FUCKING L!

Do not support the jackholes at Toys and Joys. They will fuck you. I promise.

They sold me used goods as "new in shrinkwrap" they charged my credit card multiple times, didn't answer emails, didn't answer the phone. It took me about 4 months to get a refund.

Four months after I returnd the scratched and non working WSC.

DO NOT DO BUISNESS WITH THEM!

I have shopped at toys 'n joys from time to time and never had a problem with anything. They sent me the wrong color controller once, but they paid the postage for me to send it back and sent me another one. GBA games arrive in mint condition because when I ask them to box stuff, they actually do. Also I have never had something I ordered go mysteriously out of supply and hold up an entire order for over three months, which has happened at Lik Sang.

^^That's just my experience, but I would be lying if I said it hasn't been good.
