I bought on Friday but they didn't send me the card (digital download). I've sent some e-mails but they,ve never returned. So I opened a process through paypal but it seems to me that they don't want to give my money back. So disrespectful! I will never buy there again!

Made me pay extra for shipping to receive some games, and only one of them came. Avoid like the plague unless you have credit card insurance. And now the games are getting more expensive. have had terrible service from them, a bunch of morons that can’t run customer service to save their lives.

No other site takes that long. And thanks to signing up with them to order I have got so much junk mail (I know it's their site because it started suddenly when I registered with them and I hadn't registered anywhere else for months). I also find it a little suspicious how, ever since I cancelled my order, my junk mail intake has actually doubled and I'm getting more of the scam junk mail. From what I can tell, Play-Asia are only bothered where games are concerned...anything else and they don't make an effort. Which begs the question 'why on earth do they advertise this stuff if they have no intention of doing a good job of selling it (or selling it at all)?'.

I feel like I was disrespected and that I have to be the one to make up for their mistake. Plus, they seem to randomly pick out who they're nice to. Maybe so there would be people to defend them from unhappy customers. @Dancing Queen:

I must write my experience now. Play-Asia is a disappointment, hands down. First of all, they wrote on their main page that the game I was going to get "Taiko Drum Master" delivers 1-4 business days from time of order. Read, FROM TIME OF ORDER. Logically, that means as it is, right? So I gladly ordered going through the lengthy process of setting up my account and my details. Having ordered, I was suddenly greeted by a screen that says my order needs to be PREPARED until 26th September. That's my first big shock. Note, I ordered on 10th September. This is my first shock but I had a glimmer of hope that they were just putting a date far back to protect their ass (meaning its a deadline that can definitely be met). I had several such experiences so I thought nothing much of it after. Days passed and i dont see any e-mail from Play-Asia except their weekly updates and then on the 27th (Saturday) I saw that my order is still being under "Preparing". I tried their enquiry system only to be greeted that my enquiry will only be processed on working days (aka monday). So here I am, wasted. I'm expecting to see an e-mail reply by today and if I don't, I'll be more than glad to cancel the order. But seeing that even cancelling takes 2-3 weeks to process, I'm conclusive Play-Asia is disappointing. Even e-bay sellers do better. I must say I should have checked this page first.

Anyway, I've been their customer for about a year and a half and have had problems with them 3/24 times. The summary of my current problem is that I ordered a Capcom artbook, they missent me some hentai figure and they said that the artbook was now out of stock (even though until now it says "ships within 5-15 days"). When I refused their store credit and just said that I'd be ok in keeping the figure, they changed what they originally said and claimed that they'd be able to send me my artbook. Bad customer service and very inconsistent considering the fact that some people who were sent incorrect products were resent their orders and were allowed to keep the wrong items.
