Oh god

2017-07-30 05:54:24 UTC  

I forgot

2017-07-30 05:54:34 UTC  

I bought some chink shit and didn't review it

Okay so this thing

2017-07-30 05:55:21 UTC  

What is it: a flash cartridge for the N64

2017-07-30 05:55:56 UTC  

What does it do: allows you to playback N64 ROMs off an SD card on your N64

2017-07-30 05:56:37 UTC  

Does it do the thing you want it to:

Short answer: yeah
Long answer: yes and then it falsely advertises things that aren't possible

2017-07-30 05:57:13 UTC  

Every N64 rom I put on this thing worked fine with no crashes or false boot ups

2017-07-30 05:58:01 UTC  

It supports saves but you have to hold down the reset button and boot back into the home menu of the flash cart after saving and before turning off your console

2017-07-30 05:58:34 UTC  

It says you can plug an N64 cart on top and rip roms from said carts using a built in USB port but

There's no cartridge port so you can't

2017-07-30 05:59:18 UTC  

USB port is still there. Covered in shiny tape and useless

2017-07-30 05:59:38 UTC  

As an added bonus, you can also play emulated NES games

2017-07-30 06:00:03 UTC  

But it doesn't support all NES wrappers so what games will and will not work is up in the air

2017-07-30 06:00:44 UTC  

If you have an N64 and think paying $50 for Mario Kart is super gay, I recommend the ED64 plus

2017-07-30 06:12:07 UTC  

I have question

2017-07-30 06:12:24 UTC  

so I have to pay the shipping costs for alibaba, which is really expensive.

2017-07-30 06:12:29 UTC  

5 ounces is like 20 bucks i think

2017-07-30 06:12:52 UTC  

if instead of online dropship, I go IRL, how would I navigate this price issue?

2017-07-30 06:12:59 UTC  

Mark up my products substantially?

2017-07-30 06:14:24 UTC  

But if I do Aliexpress, it's different

2017-07-30 06:14:33 UTC  

I don't need to buy in bulk if I do Aliexpress

2017-07-30 06:14:36 UTC  

Depends on how much it costs to arrive to your home

2017-07-30 06:15:16 UTC  

Also it depends on what you order

2017-07-30 06:15:23 UTC  

due to customs

2017-07-30 06:15:45 UTC  

What is a good item that customs wont bother checking?

2017-07-30 06:16:24 UTC  

Anything shipped thru shitty mail services will usually be customs-free unless it's fuck-huge or something illegal (seeds, food, etc)

2017-07-30 06:16:54 UTC  

the costly (but way faster) services like DHL almost always hit you with customs

2017-07-30 06:17:07 UTC  

ah fug

2017-07-30 06:17:13 UTC  

I was considering doing DHL

2017-07-30 06:17:34 UTC  

DHL has that big problem

2017-07-30 06:17:47 UTC  

It's 4-5x as faster as the free/cheap services

2017-07-30 06:18:28 UTC  

But if the item requires in any way to pay taxes/customs, it *will* require you to pay those

2017-07-30 06:18:36 UTC  

While on free services, they usually care a lot less

2017-07-30 06:19:18 UTC  

I'm no expert on mailing services though

2017-07-30 06:19:28 UTC  

Just going off from what I read on csg/reddit/other places

2017-07-30 06:19:31 UTC  

so what is the best way to get past this <:thenk:329322130804047872>

2017-07-30 06:19:54 UTC  

I don't want customers to pay me through paypal and then say "why is it taking so long bro"
