WhatsInTheName Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 Umang, great idea!! About the shipping question, although you have mentioned that it has taken as less as 5 days for some orders to reach, it still is not a very concrete answer. I realise that a concrete ans to this is not possible, but if we can add some facts here which can help to derive some conclusion? 1. Like a poll in this thread there members can vote the average time it took for their package to arrive; Or 2. A sub-thread where every member can come and contribute the following details - value of order shipment chosen order received in how many days customs charged city where delivered. This will def provide enough support/answer to people who are going to try PA for the first time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhatsInTheName Posted May 22, 2008 Report Share Posted May 22, 2008 PA order delayed is definitely a better place cause I think the thread has evolved as a "PA shipping woes" thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhatsInTheName Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 Can you please let me know what is the amount of customs duty (if its levied) I would have to pay if I order say a PS3 game of 2000 bucks. If you choose free shipping (economy bubble, preferably) - almost negligible chance of a duty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReNaGaDe Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 I'm a first time buyer at play asia and have ordered a chill stream ps3 controller. I accidentally canceled my order when it was in the order received stage but then re confirmed it. It now shows Payment confirmed waiting for credit....What does this mean ? I have already done the payment by credit card. Please help.. TIA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchizoidFreud Posted August 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 The payment couldnt go through. Cancel the order and place it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReNaGaDe Posted August 10, 2008 Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 ^ You mean to say that my card wasn't charged because i canceled before it could process..? I have to now order it again and make the card payment again..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchizoidFreud Posted August 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2008 They probably havent charged your card yet and thats the reason why you see the payment pending thing. Cancel the current order and check with your bank if they've charged you or something, if they havent, place a new one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
