"I purchsased an Asus mobo and 512MB of DDR and both products were shipped Fed Ex 2nd day air at no additional cost. I placed my order on Monday and everything arrived Wednesday afternoon. The packaging was superb as well! I will do a lot of future shopping here:)"
"Purchased one stick of 512mb DDR 2700 Ram. Excellent price, fast shipping, great packaging. Already added this site to my favorites folder. Will definately be purchasing from them again."
"Ordered a video card and a stick of ram, arrived here in CA in only 2 days, will buy from this merchant again"
"Ordered 2 512mb memory. Only took total of 3 days get to me from NY to SF. Good packaging. Will buy again."
"A very positive experience. Someone always answered the phone when I called, was courteous, friendly and very helpful. Items shipped quickly, good prices, no gouging on shipping costs."
"I purchased an ABIT Siluro ti 4400 from them. I like their website and the fact that they indicate clearly what's in stock. I also like that they take the time to contact you in person, should there be any questions. The delivery was quick and the price excellent."
"Great site, I have shopped elsewhere and found my product to be back-ordered everywhere. Essential showed it was in stock and in fact it was because it was in my possession 2 days later. Way to go Steve & Thanks for the great prices and service."
"Excellent. Super fast shipping, good prices, great tracking, good packaging. A+
will shop again."
"Purchased an HP 200i DVD+RW/+R DVD writer from Essential on May 10 2002. Arrived intact in timely fashion. Device would not work in the destination machine (ABit KG7-R, Athlon XP 1900+) after doing all the usual things.
Essential issued an RMA immediately upon request. Replaced the 200i with a Pioneer 104 DVD-RW/-R, also from Essential, which works. Today, Essential credited the entire purchase price of the 200i back to my card, with no deductions for "restocking fees" or other nonsense.
In my experience, Essential does what they say they're going to do, when they say they're going to do it. And their prices are good too.
Recommended."
"Great service!
Very cheap 2 day fedex shipping, ordered the VisionTek Xtasy Ti4600 on Tuesday, got it Thursday.
Very good price too.
Will do business again.
The only little complaint I had was with the packaging, top and bottom of box had NO padding at all. But parcel arrived ok and working."
"total scam if you are getting a motherboard...they shipped me a defective motherboard and i returned it the next day...they told me that i would have to wait until the manufacture send them a replacement motherboard before i either get a replacement or refund..and if the manufacture dont send the a replacement motherboard then i will get the defective motherboard back and that would be the end of it...i am totally mad about this..i did nothing wrong..even the guy admit that the motherboard wasnt checked before they sent it out to me..so i got a bad motherboard..they admited it was bad..but i got to wait..and may not even get my money or an replacement motherboard.....i dont recommend this site at all"
"Quick service, great prices and you can't beat the low price on FedEx for many of the items online. Most other retailers want twice as much to send FedEx."
"Everything arrived quickly. The order was filled correctly. I had to return an item that I had incorrectly ordered. They provided and RMA number and credited back the full amount within about 7 days. Great reseller"
"Fantastic! Ordered Wednesday, got it Friday. Ordered components for a complete system, prices are fair [lower end of PriceWatch] shipping seems to be a problem for some people but was fair for two day delivery."
"Everything ordered arrived in the same box as requested. All was packed well and arrived quickly."
