overclocking store

You think they'll be doing a liquidation sale? Presumably they've got a lot of unsold stock and need to get rid of it. May be able to get a few bargains

Any other online stores that will replace it? I dont know any others with free delivery...

We do free delivery @ www.extremecooling.co.uk and we stock most items that OCS stocked. Appologies for the extreme pimpage just trying to let peeps know that we do free delivery .

I dont know about these guys yet, but there have been rumours they maybe charging very low shipping rates.
But I am not sure as they dont open until August 1st.

casetech.co.uk

When I asked them on email, they said they have not confirmed what the cost will be on shipping, but they did say that whatever happens with shipping the product prices will be low and that is their main focus.

Wait and see what happens I guess.

I like the site tho.

Not gonna happen. The stock is being sent back to manuf. and the liquidators are having everything else.

Shame I bought a few things from them and had no problems canceling an order one time. Seemed a good place

shame they were quite good!

Thanks for that link Apex, the cooling shop looks pretty good, anyone else think we should try and direct business there to prevent another free delivery shop going down?

[LoopyJuice]

On the other hand, I just checked them out, those prices seem a little... err expensive!

[Spliff]

OCS's customer service was a joke. So were their prices. Their "free delivery" was figured into the prices of course, so was nothing like free. Perhaps on small items it was better value, but it still wasn't free - only takes about £1.00 to shove a fan in a jiffy bag & post. I reckon they just added that on to the price...

Their messageboard was once the best of the store-affiliated ones in this corner of the net, but it went downhill soon after I discovered it, and never regained the atmosphere it once had.

All in all, I won't miss them.

I have to agree with Spliff here, the free delivery is only ever good for small items seeing as it is usually incorperated into the price, seemingly moreso of the larger items, the forums were pretty pap in general, they were ok very near the beginnning but ended up wayy to overmoderated and well pap.

[Trash Man]

Well I don't know anywhere else that stocked the Mechatronics 53cfm 80mm fans

Good job I have 2 spare ones here

there shuttle xpc's were very competetively priced tho. Second only to the unmentionable retailer.
