PiePlanter
....ebuyer have really wound me up this time.
I've been dabbling in self-build pc's for about 15 years or so now and for
the last few years have bought most of my gear from ebuyer. I've never had
a problem until now, and even then it's not a matter of life or death...but
the principle.

What are peoples' experiences with ebuyer? by
Interesting Ian
I was thinking of purchasing from ebuyer. I'm not interested in after sales
service, and I'm not interested in my goods arriving on time. However I
*do* want the *correct* goods delivered undamaged. So what is ebuyer like
in this respect?
Another thing. I actually ordered a dvd writer last...

Evesham Windows CD by
JimmyX
Hello.
Does anyone know if Evesham still supply an operating system CD with their
computers?
I ask this because as of around 6 months back Dell has stopped supplying
them with sales in the UK.
I'm not really interested if someone bought their computer a few
months/years back and go a CD. I want to...

Ebuyer woes - old goods sold as new by
OVS
Today I received my digital camera I ordered from ebuyer and I'm not happy!
The goods are obviously second hand. Ebuyer didn't even have the decency to
repackage the goods in a presentable manner. The cables where removed from
plastic wrappings (the empty plastic wrappings thoughtfully still in...

Ebuyer - are they acting legally by
Chris Melluish
I foolishly bought several items, including a Seagate hard disk, from Ebuyer
a few months ago.
The hard disk has failed, so I thought it would be easy (and free) to get a
replacement.
Looking up Ebuyer's RMA procedure it appears that they expect me to pay the
postage on the return.
Rather than...

Has anybody had any experience with Overclockers.co.uk? (or OcUK as I
think they're also known as).
I bought 2 x 1GB 3200 DDR from them in Feb of this year. Towards the
end of May one the sticks failed so I requested and got an RMA number

Ebuyer Opinion by
SLP
I started using Ebuyer a few months ago - ironically, I first checked them
out after reading all the complaints about them in this NG. My dozen or so
orders have all been delivered correctly and on time with no issues
whatsoever.
Yesterday, however, I had my first chance to find out what their...

Clueless! by
Snowdon Computers
Went to an IT auction today in Manchester with loads of good P3 kit and
servers there, the PCs selling for very very good prices. When it started we
were told 'no PCs can be removed until Tuesday as the drives are not
formatted'.
I spoke to one of the goons about this formatting of the drives and...

Pipex - satisfactory broadband service or not? by
Cycle
I am looking for a broadband (512K) provider plus email service. Pipex
is amongst the cheapest and also has above-average scores for customer
satisfaction in some surveys.
The combination of low-ish cost and good service seems too good to be
