    Electronics that I have bought from DX include:
    AK2i
    DSTT
    DS lower screen
    PSP LCD
    +more

    all fully functioning and shipped in satisfactory condition. Just becuase something is third party doesn't mean the quality is low.

    If you're that worried about fire don't have anything electrical
    It doesn't need to be "below code" to be a fire hazard, electrical fires start for other reasons besides defects.

    Use smoke detectors and have a dog live inside your house when you're asleep.
    Hounds/retrievers are very reliable smoke detectors, they're good company and great for security anyway.
    Plus you get some exercise taking them out for a walk/run.

    I understand you being paranoid, it is a M$ product, after all.
    But it's more likely your console will stop functioning than the HDD will start a fire.
    Although I haven't seen any dead slim consoles irl yet.

    USA too. He can sue me for cutting his hand on the window he broke out.

    On topic: Hong Kong sales are fine. I receive packages faster from Hong Kong than I do from California.

    I didn't mean an attack dog, I meant a dog instead of a security system.
    You know, it wakes you up if somebody breaks into your house?
    A dog is less likely to start a fire than a security system......which is what I was on about ( feeding your paranoia).

    And like I stated before, stuff I order from Hong Kong is more reliable than elsewhere.Never had any issues.
    I don't live where Sprung is, but Hong Kong > Oz is certainly faster than other places overseas I've ordered from (but domestic here is pretty fast).

    And yeah, over here you are liable if somebody breaks into your house an injures themselves in some way......you don't need a dog to attack the trespasser, and you don't need to hurt him yourself purposefully.
    You get into trouble no matter what really.
