    Do you send voice notes?

    Have sent them on very rare occasion. Sometimes they make sense to use. Mainly find them annoying due to the fact that they can't be searched for or easily referenced to so messages like "oh and while you're at the store could you pick up x, y & z" can be a pain if you reach the store and can't...

    Have you bought from Amazon?

    I bought some ebooks from them before. Last time I tried accessing my account I was told it had been locked due to misuse, dunno what that's about. :unsure:

    Which gaming console rules them all?

    Well dunno if it counts as a console but I got myself a Steam Deck end of last year and it's been great. I travel a lot so it's fantastic for that but even at home I haven't played any games on my PC since getting it. :D

    Ordering off Aliexpress? Advice?

    They don't consolidate as far as I know, I've not personally needed consolidation though. All the times I've used them there has only ever been two charges at most, one being their shipment fee which is a single fee all the way to my door, the other being import duty/VAT which I've not been...

    Ordering off Aliexpress? Advice?

    Depends on what you're ordering I guess. They have a calculator on their website. Most of the stuff I've bought has been small packages less than 1kg and the typical cost has been around R250, not including the import duty where applicable.

    Ordering off Aliexpress? Advice?

    I use "Aramex Global Shipper" when ordering from Aliexpress, have done this many times, I just use the Aramex Hong Kong address, most of the sellers seem to offer free shipping to Hong Kong. Usually it takes less than 2 weeks from ordering until I get the item.

    PS Gift Card Query

    I used https://www.egifts24.co.za/ to buy Steam gift cards some years back, they do have PS gift cards too though I've never used them for that. It only allows for fixed amounts though. They're also available on bidorbuy. Also, I'm not sure if you're actually looking for a physical card cos I...

    Steam Deck unveiled

    Thanks! I hadn't actually tried that.. Just tried it now with my FNB CC but it failed.. Think the problem might be the billing address which it asks me to enter, if I try enter SA address it wants to change the store country to SA and if I enter the myus address there it fails, presumably cos...

    Steam Deck unveiled

    Sorry for the bump.. How'd you do the payment if you don't mind my asking? I've been trying to buy one of these and I managed to create a US steam account using a VPN (protonvpn) so that part's figured out, and intending to use a myus.com address, the problem I'm having is with payment as...
