Hey, I just modded my PS1 and I already have Konamix. I'm planning to buy 3 import mixes, so which ones should I get? Thanks in advance.

I reccomend the 3rd, 4th, and 5th Mixes.

Thanks Ecko, you always seem to help me out. You own, you should really become a mod here.

I like Extra over 4th, but that's just me

Just don't waste your time with the first two mixes and the appends

Hey, dont diss the appends

I think they're pretty good.

are toys 'n joys pretty good in their shipping time?

I've heard that they have improved on their shipping. most of the time your item would come 2 or 3 days late if you diddnt choose some sort of express-ish mail option.

I got my 5th mix from toysnjoys, and it came fairly quickly, packed with some authentic Hawaiian shredded newspaper. I ordered my Max2 from japanvideogames.com, and had it within 2 days, they shipped it an hour after I ordered it, which was really nice.

I would seriously just splurge and get 3rd, 4th, 5th, and Extra. I think all of them are really good. Extra has some of the more obscure songs on it that you won't get in other mixes. Stuff like Lupin the Third and Theme from Enter the Dragon. Just look up the song list. To be honest my least favorite of the four is 3rd Mix. I know, Heressy.

BTW: You can unlock everything in 4th and Extra from the options screen on 5th Mix. You just have to have saves from 4th and Extra on the card and 5th will open them. Too bad I had everything open by the time I got 5th.

Oh yeah, I forgot.
I order all my imports from ToysNJoys and have had nothing but great service from them. I have been dealing with them for about 3-4 years now. Maybe I am just lucky but I think they are great. Even if they are out of stock on an item they will ship the rest of your order and then ship the straggler later at their cost. I like em.

Toys 'n Joys has Extreme up for presale now? Well then, I am going to cancel my preorder with ncsx and go there. The price is a bit steeper, but seriously...you can't beat Toys 'n Joys. All my imports so far (4th-7th) have come from there, and they are 100% reliable, don't overcharge really, and their customer service is top notch. I dunno about ncsx, never bought things from them before.

Toys 'n Joys's games are shipped through Fed Ex, which is pretty reliable IMO. That's probably why they charge extra for it. UPS sucks so so much...
