Hi Adrian, Have just log in to the shipping log for your order and according to the weight and rate, the 10x micro SD card should have been included in your parcel. they are in bulk packaging, so they are in the same parcel. please reply to confirm. thanks. :)

I hope all people that made older orders do get there goods, I wonder how many actual customers out there that don't know about this thread, it is very worrying, that some of us are here trying to get our goods, that's why I don't like using this type of communication, but when you have no response from e-mails etc and no actual normal telephone contact, what option is there, all I stated was I shouldn't have to use someones elses forum for another sites error.
Hi Alan, I can understand your frustration like many others. But I thought with my constant reply and follow up on this forum, at least I can ease most of user in this forum. which effectively I did ease lots of user in this forum. But as you are too worrying of paying to the wrong guy here, I have cancelled your order and refunded your payment back to your card now (15th December 2007 at 02.55am). I believe this is the only way to reassure you that your money is SAFE.
as for other buyers whom may just notice this thread, I reassure you once again that I'm working on to follow all back log order. please allow up to 7 days from the date you place your order for delivery. however, if any of your order has taken longer than 7 days and has not arrive, please contact me on 07979648571 directly (mon-fri 9-5 Mike) and I promise to deal with it as soon as I can.
Merry X'Mas.

Hi Michael, your order has been adjust to 2x R4DS and 1x 2gb micro SD. the mixed up on the order happened as a result or the server -shutting down problem which cause some database crash at the time you placed your order, but all has been rectified. Thanks :)

I'm sure you'll have your order next week and im sure you'll soon forget his hard work these past few day because once you have your R4's there will be no recognition for him by you.
and if you didn't like this forum then why post here you should have called him personally, mike is a genuine nice guy and im sure he would have appreciated your call....
Hi azster, thank you so much for your trust & support for us at this time mate, we needed and I appreciated.

This is not a tax receipt.
Mike... i spoke to my credit card company and trading standards because i have had no reply what so ever to numerous attempts to contact you....
All i want is the 3 x M3DS AND 3 X 2GB MICRO SD CARDS that i have paid for...can you please contact me a.s.a.p
Regards
Gordon.
Hi Gordon, Your order for 3xM3DS and 3x 2gb micro SD will be deliver to you on tuesday. apologise for the delay.
I'd like to take this opportunities to explain a bit the reason why we have experience these delay not only because of we have a long backlog for x'mas period. we have experienve a server-shut down last week. as how the server-shutdown effect us is, because we rely on secure merchant payment (worldpay) to accept all our payment, when the payment completed, worldpay will perform "call-back" to our website to update the order status and details, but as our internal server was down, the call back was failed and unable to pass any information of your order. we do have your payment, but then we have to manually trace every single payment for the corrcet product customers paid for, and this is what has kept us behind. I understand this is not an excuses at all as customer may expect us to be able to tackle this sort of problem immediately, but things happen in the most critical time of the year, and we are working hard to keep on with it. if any of you would rather to have a refund for your order, please let me know wth your order number handy on 07979648571. otherwsie, I'll promise to catch up with the back log. from model-gadget team here, please accept our deep apologise. thanks :)

Hi Guy, the link in maxconsole is over a year ago. I remember at that time the G6 was on back order, and if you follow the thread, "hsn7" did receive his item after a week. thanks for your reminder, we take it positively as to improve our service in the future.

Why is everyone " So understanding" ? Judging by the huge amount of posts on this and many other forums these guys are giving everyone a headache. People here ordered as far back as November and have still received nothing, That stinks!
If the server was down then how were orders taken on a daily basis? Looking at the posts it appears to me that people were placing orders on a daily basis judging by the dates. How much is a backup server anyway?
Furthermore, Judging by the value of orders placed and the amount of orders taken these guys are making serious money and should maybe reinvest some of it on a new site with better product availability information. I, Like many others when planning a purchase, Check the good old internet for the best price on any product but I would rather pay a little more and buy from a supplier who has an item in stock as opposed to saving a quid or two and waiting for back orders etc.
I have made purchases on the internet for about 10 years now and I can honestly say my dealings with model-gadget have quite simply been the worse experiences I have suffered.
It appears to me that they show no loyalty to their returning customers or indeed any customer whatsoever. If the server was down why didn't they get it fixed immeadiatley? I personally heard nothing from them for 10 days. Any IT support company would have been willing to sort it out for them straight away.
Finally regarding the christmas rush and your backlog , This is simply as a result of your own failings in being fully prepared, Your inability to get things back on track quickly and also your own failure in judging your stock levels. It is totally inexcusable to treat customers with such disdain, And a simple apology will not suffice. You could have offered to refund postage costs or placed a free gift in all packages which would have helped in rebuilding your reputation, Or you could offer all returning customers from this trading fiasco free postage on their next purchase. What do we get? NOTHING!
Personally I have received my item which I ordered on the 5/12 but it came by standard recorded delivery even I paid for Special delivery. I imagine this is in breach of standard trading rules and regulations as by doing this you are not supplying people with the service they have paid for. Is it any wonder that many shoppers still feel mistrust with regards to making purchases online in general and I wonder just how many customers of yours will never purchase online again due to your shoddy treatment of them.
Be a Man and stand up to the plate, Hire some extra help in if required and just give the CUSTOMER ( Thats the people who pay your salary) WHat they have paid for and quit with the lame and feeble excuses you continue to offer up in order to justify your current situation

Hi
Got mine this morning. All working fine. Would I use Model Gadget again, probably not, would I recommend them to others probably not. It is a shame, but the very poor customer service, and failure even to post a notice on the front page of their website when things went wrong to explain has caused a lot of damage.

My order (missing items from previous order) has arrived special delivery this morning, as Mike promised on here.
@ Mike, thankyou, you've just saved Xmas
@ the wider NDS community -
I have used Model-Gadget for over £1000 of purchases in the last year, I have never had any problem until this period, faulty returns (2) have been accepted and replacements despatched immediately, comms have always been excellent and his value for money (especially his bulk purchase rates) are unquestionable.
Mike now needs to rebuild the trust of the community and we can all help with that, if you get your issue resolved, cut the guy some slack, he's held his hands up, admitted his failures and is now probably the most active poster on Afterdawn !
The funny part of all this is the number of people who reported Mike to trading standards for failing to deliver an item that "could" be used to play pirate software on a DS. But then I know you are all like me and use the r4 / m3 as a media player only !
Merry Xmas

Hi Mike, Thankyou for your reply i really appreciate it, but you neglected to let me know if i would receive my order this side of christmas, or should i expect it Tuesday/Wednesday like most other people on this forum. :)

Thanks for the reply. I guess you can understand why we are all getting a bit angry. I can assure you the item never turned up. And if the item was signed for then it won't be my name against it. I dont think you'll be able to get an answer the same day from the post office. So don't think i'll be seeing anything this side of Xmas.
I know the post on maxconsole was over a year old. Never noticed it until I posted the thread on this forum.
On another point has anyone any idea what is wrong with www.m3adapter.com I've not been able to access the page for a couple of days now www.m3adapter.co.uk still works though.

They're exceeding their bandwidth limits - too many people downloading things from there and its going over what they pay their web hosts for.
If you google for "http://www.m3adapter.com/downloads.htm" and click on the cache button you'll get google's cached page. From there you can find an alternative host for the software.
