you got that right. parcelforce are totally useless. I had a small VAT bill to pay for the import and their main number couldn't take the payment instead directing me to their office that was actually holding the parcel but they never ever answered their phone so 2 days later when I got back to UK I had to drive to the office and write a cheque!
with fedex its a simple matter of giving a credit card number over the phone and the package is delivered next day
anyway, glad you have it. hope you got some games too!

Got a question:
When do you pay import tax? Is it when they bring it to your door or if you go collect?
I thought I didn't have to pay it since the guy came to the door give me the PSP then left, this was about just under 2 months ago then I come in today and find I have a bill for £49.90.
Do they usually come in after this long and how fast do I need to pay it?
Thanks. |

Well then looks like you will be paying it, but if you a risk taker then thats an easy way out of it. |

I'm hoping I got away without the import tax - in fact I'm pretty sure, as just about everyone else collecting from the Parcelforce depot had a letter with them and had to pay there and then on collecting their packages, so that's one good thing. Got a bit of RR goin' last night. My 16-yr old brother is sooooo jealous!
As soon as they release Pro-Evo, might have to get me another PSP so we can have a bit of wireless action - bring it on, Sony!
Do I have to do anything to be able to view pics/vids from my Duo Pro that I've been using in my P910i? It tells me that free space on the card, but won't do anything else?

The PSP and the phone use different file structures unfortunately and so they don't see each others stuff.
@themarques
Any news on some games yet?
