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. |
