Overclockers Order Help

[ctid]

I ordered the same B-Grade case, along with a couple other B-Grade items, but have yet to hear anything from them regarding the order. That was actually my 2nd order, I put in another earlier on in the day then noticed more stuff I wanted later, so put in the 2nd.

My 1st order is due to arrive today - the tracking info says it is currently on the delivery van - and with exception to an £8 Pioneer DVDRW, everything should be there. It will interesting to see what condition all the stuff is in as it is all B-Grade.

Apparently there was a problem with their system over the weekend whereby it wasn't removing the item(s) from stock once someone purchased one i.e. if they had 5 Asus A8N-SLI Premium motherboards for £30, if 10 people ordered them it would still be listed as in stock - thankfully I was lucky enough to get one

So what did you buy then? If you get the case, would you consider selling it to me?

Haha, it really doesn't look like I'm getting the case! As I say, ordered on Saturday and still not received a order shipped confirmation - my flatmate, who put in an order on Sunday night received an order shipped email yesterday morning!

Definitely not getting the stuff on my 2nd order as I just checked my bank account and they have refunded the money - the refund actually went through before they'd even taken the money for the transaction.

Good news though is I've received the 1st order - everything appears to be brand new but most don't have their original boxes. The Asus P5RD1 is fully retail boxed though, so pretty good for £18!

Nice one . You were lucky then.

some of the stuff i got was pants, most went back faulty / wrong items

but i picked up a £200 shuttle for £30 (and it was brand new)

Ah. I'm looking for a case that will take a Socket A mATX motherboard and still take full height cards. Know of any?

contacting overclockers is a pain in the arse, the messaging systems falls apart frequently and msgs left unanswered for some time, while u get sick and worry. and the phone, well its a 870 number what else can i say about it. and if u r lucky enuf to get thru. anyway i think the best way is not to worry too muhc of it, as if u used credit card u can easily claim your money back from credit card company as your goods has not been delivered. and if u are looking for a replacement they are not very likely to do that.

however alternative is there, palces such as microdirect, komplette and ebuyer (not best rated here, but no trouble with me) have very cheap non-b greade items. they are usually 10% cheaper than overclockers. so worth looking there

Ocuk did have some problems with their system that day, I ordered 2x 7800GT's and got charged for them but got non! But after speaking to Gibbo he gave me a very good price on another brand new 7800GT

Also my b-grade Asus A8N-SLi premium turned up and its working perfectly

If you want to ring them, ring them early.. I got through straight away.

Just ordered a X1800XT from oc, came next day and seems to work perfectly - you have to hand it to them that they do have some great prices, however I did pay slightly more for my Dell 2405PW from scan as It was a lot of money and I wanted piece of mind and good back up !!
