About Us

A little background:

Every time I've travelled to Asia, I've noticed there are so many neat gadgets available that you can't get in the States. I haven't been able to find a lot of this stuff on eBay, Amazon, or specialty sites that import Asian electronics. On the other hand, a lot of products that you come across look great on the shelf, but once you try 'em out...not so great. You realize there's a reason they're not available elsewhere.

I figured there must be other gadget freaks who'd like to get their hands on this stuff...but be able to read about it first from someone who's tried it out, so they have some assurance that what they're buying isn't crap.

By happy circumstance I find myself spending most of my time in Asia lately. I've shopped around and played with a lot of gadgets, and only show you the ones I like that don't seem to be available elsewhere. The products listed are just the ones that I've stumbled across that I think are neat products; if there's something else in particular you're looking for, let me know and I'll see if I can find it!

I try to be honest in the descriptions and mention any flaws I've noticed in the samples I've tested. Something I don't like about a product might not bug you, for instance a slightly confusing user interface might drive one person nuts but not faze someone else. I want you to know what the pros and cons are, so it's more likely that you'll be happy with what you've bought.

In order to keep costs low, we don't keep much inventory. If the item description says "in stock" or "limited stock", it'll probably ship immediately. If we can't ship it as soon as indicated, we'll let you know how long it'll take and I'll ask whether you prefer to wait, receive a similar item, or have your money refunded.

Calibryze, LLC is based in Oakland, California, but most orders will be sent via air from Singapore or Hong Kong (usually overnight after you order it, due to the time zone difference). See our FAQ page for information about ordering and shipping.

If anything goes wrong, or you just don't love your gadget as much as you thought you would, click here or email . Let us know whether you'd like a refund, a replacement, or another item in exchange and we'll do what we can to fix the problem. Keep in mind that Asia is 4-8 hours ahead of Europe's time zones and 12-16 hours ahead of the USA's, so we'll usually reply to inquiries overnight or the following business day.
