www.Xoxide.com, www.coolerguys.com, and my 2 fav's www.dangerden.com and www.dragonmodz.net


The worst place ever for me has to be case-mod. They sold me $40 bucks of neon green stuff and they call it UV and they garunteed the fans would fit my case and they didn't. Then they told me they only sell what's in the pics and they weren't the same. So they can go f00k themselves. [\rant]




Edit When are you gonna fold for me spectrum? You would be the first person on my team.

I haven't ordered from them because prices are little high, but it sure is worth it when something bad happens. Like my experiance above they just basicaly told me I was stuck with it. Paying more for some service is always worth it.

They were kinda expensive for a while, but they've dropped prices on the basic stuff like fans/ccfl/cabels etc. Not as cheap as SVC though. But their selection is great, and its always better to get everything you need from one place.

That is a good point, but it's nice to get views from people here becuase there are way to many people writing reviews. Many people here know the difference between good and bad. Also http://www.resellerratings.com/seller2314.html they have a good rep but in my opinion there terrible becuase they won't take stuff back unless its broken (so if you ordered a fan and they said it would fit and it doesn't they won't take it back unless its broken and then they will only exchange it).

I agree. We all know eachother here and we're not some bot astroturfing. Didn't saveclub.com or whoever we busted have a buncha good reviews places? People have been busted pumping up reviews of their own product on sites. Not to say dont trust any review site, but informed opinions from people you trust are always better.

Okay. I vouch for that too, then. I've done five orders with them, and none of the shipments have been damaged.
