    Another reason is needed?

    I thought the random fraudulent charging of your credit card was good enough....

    ocuk are good, as long as your happy to purchase and put money in the pocket of a known and public racist.

    Apart from that they are fine

    not seen the leaked dons section thats knocking around then?

    Citylink arent that bad for me, only because their depot is close so *when* they fail to deliver its not far to travel

    but ocuk....... not had a bad experience but i avoid shopping there due to the returns problems alot of people have. Plus scan do free delivery.

    I've heard rumours about OCuk, but to be honest the speedy delivery has a much more positive effect on me than the rumours' negative. I've never had to return anything though.

    Dude if you'd do me the kindness of PM'ing me or emailing me that stuff, I'd be very much apreciative. Emails specofdust {at} google.com.

    Anyway, as for Citylink, its very much a matter of where you live, everyone I know either loves them or hates them, for me, they're great, I must admit. Them and Royal Mail are the only two delivery companies to ever get anything to me next day, and citylink have done that consistantly now about 5 or 6 times, for many though, they're terrible, it really depends on your location.

    As for using OcUK, noooo way, they suck on so many levels, not to mention the owner..isn't someone I want to be paying for anything.

    Scan and overclock.co.uk are two of the best for components, kustom for moddy stuff, not much else is needed.

    Yeah **** OCUK, bunch of rubbishrubbishrubbishrubbishrubbish.

    Gibbo on the forums is a complete classic, if you want a good laugh, go read his posts. ive lost count how many times he says they have the best prices and stock in the UK.

    There still selling the 4400+ for 364, i bought mine for that price 6 months ago.

    Having seen the comments made in that 'private' part of ocuk, I am shocked!

    There has been a long drift of members from Ocuk's forums over to hexus, and after some of the things said about them, I hope they are relieved to be here!

    I know OcUK hae been on watchdog, among others, and their retailer listing on users.hexus.net was removed after threats of legal action due to all the bad comments. This company really deserves to go out of business.
