    Cool Ratings & Reviews on Scan website

    This may not be the place for suggestions, but I was wondering if tehre would ever be any extension to Scan's website, to incorporate a user rating and review system like eBuyer has. I find it very helpful when selecting products, and usually go with the ratings given by people who have used the products.

    An option may be to havesuch a ratings system incorporated into the Hexus forum, instead of on the site?

    Just a thought... cud be a crap idea, or maybe it's already done?!

    My System: Coolermaster Centurion 5 (black) case, Intel E6750 Core2Duo, Tagan Easy-Con 530W, Asus P5B Deluxe WIFI, OCZ 2GB Kit (2x1GB) DDR2 800MHz/PC2-6400 CL 4-4-4-15 PLATINUM XTC, Samsung SpinPoint 200Gb SATA2 / 2 x Maxtor DiamondMax 10 200Gb SATA, 256Mb Sapphire ATI PCI-E X1950PRO, Creative X-Fi Xtreme 7.1, 19" Daewoo W9ZQ Black Widescreen TFT, 4Mb Virgin Cable Broadband (formerly Blueyonder) with Linksys WRT54GL Wireless-G and DD-WRT firmware.

    That is a real good idea. I used to buy from Ebuyer and their reviews and rating are very useful. Bought a ADSL modem from them that I couldn't get working but someone had writing how they got it to work and it worked a dream and saved me lots of time.

    You have to bear in mind though that not everyone will right a good review whereas people are often more than ready to right a bad review about something, so when i'm reading customer reviews i take them with a pinch of salt. But that said a review system would be good.

    I must admit the little stars currently displayed mean nothing to me currently as I have no idea why they have been awarded.
    Also the compare feature doesnt really help as much as it could, as some description fields are blank and boxes for some items do not appear which means you can't include them.

    The comparison feature is currently being updated further, so blank fields will be a rarity.
