This advise is coming from Kiya, another member of the forum. Check JK or Entertainment Heaven she said she thinks they have a lens cleaning kit that might help.

well not sure but it may need cleaning. If you had your wii for a long time it may be dusty inside. Maby u are needing cleaner for a dvd or cd player may work.

well i sent it to jk entertainment and tey say my lens needed replacement which will cost about 1000 bucks..god i hate trinidad and they expensive cheap cheating ways...a lens is like 50 us thats 300 y they charging 700 extra??!

The lens might cost $300, but the customs? Don't be surprised if those bastards charge more than that when it comes down here. And then there's shipping and handling.

Case in point? My brother ordered a book from away. Only costs 5 US. When it came down, know how much he had to pay?

$76 TT. More than twice the cost of the book alone.
Want to know the kicker?
He still has to pay back the original cost of the book, because the $76 was the customs and shipping and handling alone.

So....don't be surprised if some people charge you out the wazoo for such things.
You never know if they're trying to recoup all of those God awful side costs that come with shipping down the thing in the first place.

Not to mention the labour charge...

a BOOK NEO?!

i thought books were duty/vat-free?!

*puts a hold on my wish list at amazon for a 1/2 dozen books*

New Era Outlaw · « **Reply #10 on:** May 28, 2008, 10:46:09 AM »

Yup. A book. Even my brother was taken aback by the charges.

daniboy79 · « **Reply #11 on:** May 28, 2008, 10:59:59 AM »

so it's true then, there is no fixed duty to item list, it's purely to the discretion of the Cutsoms Officer at the time of evaluation. :S

...Lovely!

Customs officers. Grr. Ah hates them thar low down, dirty varmints.

Especially since they ransacked my copy of Mega Man Zero 1. Damn thing looked like a gorilla sat on it. And farted.

arwnightmare · « **Reply #14 on:** May 28, 2008, 01:10:47 PM »

hmm well its life yes..lol i never liked ordering stuff especiually if i want it bad..i let family members bring it down.

zenmaster · « **Reply #15 on:** May 28, 2008, 01:48:56 PM »

should have bought your own lens and put it in. I bought a mod chip a few years back and paid no duty and the shipping was about $12US

arwnightmare · « **Reply #16 on:** May 29, 2008, 05:00:21 PM »

i dont have credit cards nor any family members comming down anytime soon...plus i used to open my dreamcast and know that lens was easy to take out and put in but i dunno about the wii
