2 of the people at the top decided to leave, and they had debts i dont think they could pay back.
Will be missed a lot, very good store :(
damn
they were one of the sweetest stores around :(
I'm surprised they haven't released an official statement yet
Im sure they will in time, i would think they have a lot to deal with right now :(
I found on the morning they ceased trading, i went to go to the forums through their site and that came up then i tryed going forums and they were down. At first thought they were hacked, i was looking at ordering of them aswell :(.
Yea i noticed this the other day, Well upset i was
Free Delivery is what i'll miss most, and they had good Customer Service, So long TheOverclockingStore
I loved the OCS. For buying stuff like fans they were brilliant as the postage was free. Maybe that didn't help their business much :(
Any other online stores that will replace it? I dont know any others with free delivery...
Competition at that end of the market is very stiff - I can think of 4 other places that do very similar product lines to them... I guess they just got squeezed. :(
Sad to see such a good place go.
What other places are there? Is there a sticky for this sort of request in the Hardware Forum?
There used to bea sticky on the old forums, I don't think a new one has been put up yet though.
It is very sad to see the OCS go, my very first bit's I ordered for a computer came from them and I had never had any problems in hte countless times I had used them in the past.
OCS will be greatly missed :(
The first ones that jump to my mind for similar kit, areQuote:

www.kustompcs.co.uk & www.ultim8pc.co.uk
I don't think either offer free delivery though. In fact I can't think of any HW supplier that does now unless orders are over a certain value :(
What happens if I need to RMA one of their products???
I guess you will just have to send it to the manufacturer directly.Quote:

No one else sells the promi :o
Whats the difference between a prommi and a vapo?
I had never used OCS as i have only recently joined the OC\'ing scene. I look on there store a few times and they had some nice kit, also the only store i knew who offer free postage.
Ebuyer should bring back free postage. I bet they would probably increase sales/profits.
