After being screwed over by foundmy, I decided to try modchipcentral. Received responses to my e-mails promptly, and received my order in 5 days and I'm from NY. Highly recommended!

I for one can vouch for ModChipCentral's Genuine service. They have very good prices IMO and they charge your card immediately (which is a good sign to tell that they are not just a scam site like modchipoutlet, who say "will charge after shipment") And they send you an invoice immediately. The item came a bit after a week in very good packaging and both chips work perfectly! My best experience, period for any chip site, and is definitely my number one source. (The shipping is superfast to the US and they are located in Canada!)

I'd just like to praise ModchipCentral.com for a number of reasons. The item I ordered was intended as a Christmas gift, and I placed the order on the 18th of December, typically a time of year where you'd expect there to be delays with shipping, but to the contrary, the item was shipped the following day with haste. Great customer relations too, they were able to confirm for me that it was going out even before I received the tracking number.  
 
As for the item itself, it arrived in perfect condition, well packaged and secure only a few days later.  
 
I'd recommend ModchipCentral.com to anyone else considering to purchase from them.

Very fast and good customer service. I received my item within 5 business days from the time I placed my order. The products were well packaged and in perfect condition. They even added some extra stuff. I am very satisfied and will do  
business again.

Placed an order on 3 Dec 08. Kept having a problem with them charging my credit card account. I emailed them with the concern that my card couldn't be charged and they came back with a reply immediately.  
 
So I end up chosing the money order option. Mailed the money order and invoice via USPS Express (so I could track it). Both the US Postal Service and Canada Post state money order was delivered on 9 Dec 08 (Canada Post even shows the signature online which is awesome).  
 
I waited a while to see if they would update my order status and even emailed them on 11 Dec 08 to check on the order's status (being that the website is stating that they are shipping daily). Haven't had a reply since. Today is now 18 Dec 08 and still no reply or package received. Now here I am a week before Christmas shopping for more gifts for my son because I feel like I'm gonna get screwed.  
 
Talked to my coworkers (I work side by side with Canadians) and if I don't get it by the end of the week, there are a couple of folks here with connections back at Canada who are looking to bust these guys and shut them down for good. I say have at it, being:  
 
1) screwed and not receiving my product  
 
2) asking for status and being ignored now that they have my money (but email replies are great prior to them getting the money)  
 
3) for ruining my kids Christmas

I have placed multiple orders from this site, as well as other chip sites. This site has consistently been quick and had great service. Their support is fast and helpful, and they speak English! ;)  
 
They even added an additional ribbon cable free of charge, per my request!  
 
I will continue to purchase from this company again and again.

Placed an order on November 19th for delivery in the US. The item was shipped within 24 hours and arrived in about 5 business days.  
 
The product was packed safely and was of the exact quality I expected.  
 
No fears when ordering from these guys, they run a damn good operation.

I ordered a chip, pre-soldered with a clip, from ModChipCentral. I arrived on my door step a week later, but was not functioning. I contacted their company support, which led me through some basic troubleshooting steps to ensure that it was the chip and not any other issue.  
 
When they determined that the chip may be suspect, I RMA'd it back and was able to exchange for a slightly better one and just paid the difference.  
 
The new chip was mailed out and received here a week later and works perfect.  
 
Great company, great prices, authentic products. And great customer service.

Very happy with the speed an efficiency of the ordering process, but rather disheartened that all prices are in US funds for a Canadian website. "All prices are in US Dollars" is only listed on the home page. Most search engines take you to product pages where the items are listed without any mention of US dollars. They additionally list the prices in Euro, but most consumers aren't doing currency conversions in their head.  
 
In my honest opinion, as a Canadian website they should be listing their costs in US Dollar and Canadian dollar. How they have these prices listed cannot be seen as anything short of deliberate.  
 
In conclusion, Canadian customers need to have a currency conversion program handy so you know how much you are truly spending.  
 
 
 

okay well where do i begin? i was pretty excited to order this chip for my wii. well i ordered it somewhere around the middle of august, but i was charged for it on the 27th of august but that was after at least of week of purchase... either way, thats fine, it takes about 2 weeks for it to get here, again, thats fine, i'm in no big rush.  
 
Well the package finally shows up and i go up to start to work on my system. i open the package to find a chip was packed in a think bubble wrap envelope and the wii-clip was bent. i immediately send them an email saying that its bent and i'm not touching anything until they confirm i should continue ( i even take pictures of it as well) they assure me its not an issue. okay well now that i know its not going to be a problem, i go to take apart my wii to get the drive out with the triwing screwdriver they sent me. WRONG!... i received a t-10 torx. so i email them again telling them they have send me the wrong "screwdriver". they apologize and tell me they are shipping another one out asap. a little over a week later the tribit shows up.  
 
So now, after nearly a month of waiting on this and that to show up i can start the process. i take it to a friend of mine that has done the snap on wii clip before just so i didn't have to mess with it. he snaps in on in a matter of seconds and we put it into the disassembled wii. no go red light, no disc function whatso ever with the chip attached. remove the chip and the wii operates as normal. i thought to myself i knew something was fishy about bent clips being okay.  
 
So then i email them once again (we have in total exchanged email over 30 times and i have used my credit card a total of 4 times in the process of getting this chip working) telling them this chip isn't working etc etc, told you it was bent when i got it, blah blah blah. they tell me that in some cases an extra wire must be soldered into place. well i take it to an electronic shop and get charged 20 dollars to solder one wire, a rip off i know, regardless i wanted it working. i do this, come home try it again and should i be surprised that it still doesn't work? because i wasn't.  
 
Well yet again i email them requesting a replacement or a replacement of my money. they tell me they will replace the the clip for 20 dollars and extra 10 to ship it, after i just spent almost 10 to send it to them. i refuse tell them to send me my money back that i'm not sending them 30 dollars for another crappy clip that will probably show up damaged as well. they tell me that they will just replace it and ship it for 10 dollars.  
 
i'm still pretty kinda mad about it but i send them 10 dollars to cover it... well that was about a two weeks ago and so far i haven't received any acknowledgment of them getting the payment(besides the funds being withdrawn from my bank account) for it or a reply to the email i sent them afterwards.  
 
in conclusion i have spent about 125 dollars(not to mention going on 3 months) on an 85 dollar chip(which the price dropped a week after i ordered it but that happens) and still don't have anything to show for it. i don't recommend anyone to order from them. their customer service is pretty decent, but i think they are just trying to rob me of as much money as possible, they know they have reached my limit and probably won't ever reply to me. we shall see.  
 
i suggest ordering from a company inside the united states, the canadain sellers seem to be slow and not worried about how long it takes you to get your merchandise. i feel that i have given them more than ample time to get there stuff together.

Great customer service, responded to my emails in great time, they even price match which even makes this store better. Excellent product, works perfectly and the shipping was also swift. One of the best online retailers out there to buy chips. Will recommend friends to this website. Thank you for the excellent chip!

Five stars.  
 
Item shipped one day after order with tracking number. Shipping ran $10. I missed free shipping by a day (laughs). Received in the US 10 days later. Chip was securely packaged and outwardly non-descript.  
 
Wasabi v3 chip for Wii works like a champ.  
 
The 10 days to receive the item has nothing to do with ModchipCentral's handling. Canadapost's website says Xpresspost USA takes 3-5 days to get to destination. I don't think this accounts for customs. From what I've read, a 7-10 day delivery time from Canada to US is typical.  
 
Thanks MCC. I'll be spreading the word of your excellent service to fellow Wii owners at work.

My experience with modchip central and Sylvester G, was both excellent and frustrating at the same time. My first wasabi chip appeared to be nonfictional. After several emails and suggestions by Sylvester, I returned it. I would like to say, that they issued an RMA after the first email, but had me try a few things before I sent it back. Once received, Sylvester confirmed the chip was good, but offered to test and send me another, just to be sure. I accepted, and the replacement chip worked fine. Modchip central is a great company that offers excellent customer service. Just be patient - things sometimes go wrong, but they are willing to work with you.

100% legitimate, fast, friendly service. I ordered a new modified Wii (with the d2Pro drive chip) which arrived only 4 days after shipping, which is quite fast considering it had to go through customs and several states to get here.  
 
Wii works flawlessly with originals and their counterpart backups. No more worrying about losing game discs. Highly-reccomend these folks.

I would like to share with you this horrible experience I had with Canadian MOD website ModChipCentral (http://www.modchipcentral.com).  
 
I made the order for the modded DVD drive from ModChipCentral on June 8th, they quickly invoiced my account, thus the waiting for the package to ship began.  
I received the package on the 23rd only to discover that delivery packaging was poor and one of the wires was disconnected (if you ask me this was due to bad welding, shaking the package normally does not cause welding points to break)  
When they were told of this they advised me to take the DVD with the WASABI chip to a professional welding shop in Israel (where I live), I asked them about reimbursing me for this and they agreed.  
As agreed the wire was welded into place, this still did not fix the issue, instead when inserting a disc (WII sports original or downloaded DVD) I now received "Unable to read the disk" error message.  
 
ModChipCentral advised me to ship the unit back to Canada.  
 
After inspection they told me that they connected the wrong bridge on the WASABI chip, which caused the WII to "be" in NTSC region instead of PAL (should this even matter now that this is a "hacked" drive???) and this is somehow my fault!! (!!!!!)  
 
They shipped a new (or the same one I can not tell) unit, this time this unit works although I must say that I can notice longer loading time for WII sports.  
 
ModChipCentral did not reimburse me for - shipping or for fixing the loose wire or for taxes I had to pay twice when receiving the unit!  
Or in other words NO REIMBURSMENT EVEN THOUGH THEY PROMISED.  
 
I was dealing with "Sylvester G" from ModChipCentral.  
 
 
My order ID: #29655  
 
My recommendation is to STAY AWAY LIKE FIRE!  
I advise you to buy in a different store instead of getting RIPPED OFF by these unprofessional lying imbeciles.
