From the other thread: "Watch out for them, it took me over 2 1/2 months to get my Pandora Battery. And the Memory Stick Duo I ordered from them didn't work."

I wouldn't risk it.

I feel like most sites like this you can expect a long long shipping time.

and dealextreme has sent me 4 broken r4ds carts. So this guy might be better in the scheme of things. Fyi.

I've actually had fairly positive results with Dealextreme. I picked up a Pandora battery and an EZ-Flash Vi from them, and both arrived within a week and a half with no problems.

If you want a cheap DS card, I suggest going with this.

The R4 is simply an outdated card that isn't being updated anymore. That site has them too, as well as some higher end cards for good prices.

Dealextreme can be kind of slow sometimes (ships from Hong Kong...probably just like the other site,) however, they're pretty reliable over all.

Ah but that one doesn't come with anything but the cart. I need a way to get games onto it.

Tada! They have ones with 1gb and 2gb micro sd cards too if you look around a bit.
