Good Vendors / Bad Vendors.
 

I have used a few over the years, and see a pattern, I'm sure every
company has their bad days, but perhaps we should try and see what trends
there are.

My Generally Good List:

Misco
NovaTech
CCL
Microdirect
Komplett

My Avoid At All Costs List

Ebuyer
Overclockers
Aria
Scan

I've never had any 'major' problems with any established Vendor. I
always use a credit card or small claims to resolve any problem should i
have one. It amazes me the drama some people get themselves into with
vendors.

My Avoid At All Costs List

Ebuyer


I've never had any problems with ebuyer and most people are probably the
same , Humans work for large companys and humans make mistakes .

Unlike yourself - not every human can be 100% perfect 100% of the time .

Some people are special and if theres a problem - they take it personal
as its done on purpose to them :-)

something goes wrong outside the 1st month)
