I'm looking for these 3 things:

Lock On Gold
ST30 Joystick
Microsoft LifeCam VX-1000

I tried buying them all from Amazon UK but they wouldn't ship here! :( So I've been searching a few SA sites and found the web cam and Lock On: Flaming Cliffs (better than nothing), but I can't find the joystick. Maybe someone could recommend another cheap yet good joystick instead of the ST30, that can actually be bought in SA (online that is).

I found Lock On: Flaming Cliffs at virtualsense.co.za for R269 and the Microsoft Lifecam VX1000 webcam at take2.co.za for R216. If anyone knows a place that I can get either one for a better price please let me know! :)

Would really appreciate some help, thanks guys!

You could try to purchase from Amazon US and ship it to a US remailer, they will give you a US address and ship it over when they receive your goods for, I've used them before.

Cool I'll give that remailer thing a try, thanks!

EDIT: I'm still gonna be ordering from Amazon UK since the postage time is a lot less. Do you know any UK remailers?

No... sorry, I only waited a week to get my goods from the US, customs delayed my goods for another week anyway so you can forgot about getting your goods on time when SA customs are involved. :(

Only 1 week from the US?! Wow that's amazing! I thought it would take 4-6 weeks! Did you just use normal mail or speed mail (don't know the proper name :))?

So do you think that it would probably take around the same time for the stuff to get here if I ordered them from either Amazon UK or US, because I only want to order from the UK because I thought it would be quicker.

From amazon US to the mailer took 2 days with UPS and from the mailer to me took 3-4 days via DHL cant remember exactly but customs delayed everything when it got to SA.

From the UK to SA would probably only be a day or 2 less probably not sure

I used myUS/Access USA but you should also look at USA2me
