modchip.ca

Last night I ordered a M2 Pro from modchip.ca. I told them to match the price to $35 USD, but when I got the confirmation e-mail the chip still cost $65. How do I know if the price was matched because I don't want to end up paying extra when it comes to the door. BTW, I'm paying through COD. Any feedback would be nice. Thanks.

In case, anyone wants to know. Modchip.ca sent me a second e-mail with my tracking number and they did match the price.

It looks real to me. Is there anything that sticks out to you that would make it seem like a clone?

The prices are incredibly high, but the picture of the chip looks real. As far as I have always known modchip.ca has been a fairly reputable site.

If you are refering to the post at the top of the modchip.ca site then no. I believe that what they are saying is that there USD prices are set at 33% of the Canadian price.

That is what I figured but the initial post started getting those old rusty wheels turning. Wishful thinking I guess. THANKS FOR THE WD-40

Well, you can e-mail them to make sure at [email protected] i think it was. They told me that as long as the reseller actually has stock for the modchip then modchip.ca will match the price. Initially the M2 Pro would have cost me $65USD but they matched my price in a second e-mail containining my second information and it was $35 USD. Like I said, just e-mail them if you don't believe me.

Right but that is different from what he was thinking. At the top of their page it is saying some 33% off stuff and he got confused by your post thinking that they were taking an addintional amount off the USD price due to exchange rate. If he could find a DMS3 for $50 somewhere they would match his price, but thats different.

It's not so bad if they are doing price matching. Azn Rice Boi says that he is getting his messiah for $35, thats not bad. For them to drop their price $25 is a good thing. However I do not agree with them just ripping off all the noobs who do not know any better than to check out at least 5 sites before they decide where to buy their chip.

I've tried searching for other sites on like yahoo but just keep getting alot of junk posts I need to try and search on other search engines and see if I can find better results, but I need like more hours in the day due to the way I work. Any help on some trustworthy sites would be helpful.
