"I made my first purchase with Kevin in 1998. I was ammazed that an east coast vendor would respond to email questons at 11:00pm CST. With a total of 10 purchases since, I'm a happy customer.

His experience in component matching and building with quality hardware has proven reliable with systems that have never shut down or had a component failure.

Kevin has always up front with product availability. He will suggest a alternative if the component is NA but, if I need just that item, he has bent over backwards to to quickly supply it.

KC Computers is a 10.

"I first learned about KC Computers from 2 friends of mine. They both Highly recommended KC Computers primarily because of the outstanding support.

Although I initially had a couple of issues with the setup of the software on my system, Kevin was there replying to my requests even at very off hours! I couldn't believe it when I received a response late in the evening on the weekend! Anyway, he got my system up and going, and I am VERY happy with computer.

I would recommend KC Computers to Anyone who wants an excellent computer system, along with excellent support.

"Wonderful service and good pricing. After discovering KC several years ago we've slowly transitioned each computer to KC every time one's needed to be replaced. With our most recent order, we now have 13 KC systems in this office and an additional 3 purchased for home use by employees.

Of these 16 sixteens, I can note the following:

1. They've all arrived on-time, on or before the date promised by KC.

2. Not a single serious problem on any of the systems. Small stuff happens, as can be expected after a year or two of use (dead video card, etc.), but no disasterous situations. Any small problems encountered have been handled quickly and professionally.

3. Have never been "upsold" by KC. When I order a system for myself, I know each component I want and order it as such - and that's exactly what I receive. When I order a replacement system for someone in this office, I rarely research it out. Rather I usually just tell Kevin what it's will be used for (i.e. lots of desktop publishing, or MS office/browsing/email and nothing else) and ask for his advice. Always have received fair quotes in this manner.

In short, highly, highly recommended. Frankly, I don't see how you can go wrong using these guys.

"I have purchased complete systems and various seperate components from KC-Computers. My experience has been excellent across the board. Kevin knows his stuff when it comes to computers. He answers all e-mails very quickly and truly cares about his customers. I wish all businesses were run like KC.
10 out of 10 stars and nothing less!!!

"I've been buying from KC Computers for over 4 years and I don't waste time with others. If he has it, he'll give you a competitive price and excellent support. If he doesn't have it, he'll get it and do the same. I don't have time to screw around with a failure. Kevin's products seldom have trouble and when they do, he's quick with solutions and replacements if necessary. He's offered to replace things when he was pretty sure there wasn't a hardware failure but just wanted me satisfied. 'Nuff said."

"I built my own PC from scratch in Febuary 2002. Kevin Chalker, owner of KC Computers, provided superb pre-order intelligence, terrific pricing, in-stock products, UPS tracking, and offered install tips by e-mail once the parts were in my hands.

My retail ASUS P4B266-C M'board failed four days after arrival and KC computers shipped a replacement Mbrd within three days. All parts have performed flawlessly.

I will shortly upgrade an old Gateway for my cousin. I can't imagine obtaining future PC parts from any outlet other than KC Computers.

If you're considering ordering PC parts online, don't waste your time with the other guys--go straight to KC Computers. Kevin Chalker and his company won't disappoint.

"Kevin is wonderful to work with. He often answers mail with-in an hour, 7 days a week. Beyond just providing product, Kevin will often work with you to provide the solution YOU need, not just what he happens to have."

"I've bought two custom-built systems from KC in the last 4 years. Both times Kevin's been prompt, knowledgeable and extremely helpful. When a hard drive died several months after purchase, he not only stood by the warranty but shipped the replacement same day / overnight. In my experience, you can order from KC with complete confidence. You might save a few bucks elsewhere, but you'll have trouble matching the quality of service, confidence and comfort level you'll have."

"I first ordered a system from Kevin in Dec 99. In May 02, I put in a CD-RW drive and started having problems getting the computer to boot up. I e-mailed Kevin on Memorial day, and even though it was 2 1/2 years after purchase date, he answered my e-mail within an hour. After several troubleshooting attempts, he correctly identified the cause of my problem to be a faulty motherboard. I ordered a new one and a new CPU from him and received the shipment promptly and intact. He provided extra instructions on installing the CPU fan, and responded quickly to several questions I had concerning BIOS settings. I also got a SCSI card from him for my scanner as the new motherboard had no ISA slot, and when I had trouble interfacing the new card with the older scanner he provided information to get me on track. All told, my system was down for less than a week. I give Kevin and KC Computers my highest possible recommendation. Prices are competitive, delivery is prompt, and service is unparalled. He answers e-mails very quickly, sometimes even at 1:00 or 2:00 AM. His operations should be videotaped and used as a model on how to run a sucessful business. What a pleasure to find service this great!"

"I have ordered 4 systems from Kevin over the last several years, plus recommended KC Computers to friends (who have also ordered systems). In all cases, the experience has been excellent. Kevin's response time to emails (questions and such) is nothing short of remarkable, often within several minutes, even, many times, late at night. This has been true whether I am considering ordering a system, or just asking a technical question about a system (regardless of whether I ordered it from him or not!). He is very knowledgeable in all aspects of computers, and very patient, regardless of the questions asked. Absolutely no problems with orders or delivery, and the couple of minor problems I have had, Kevin has always been willing to do whatever it takes to correct the problem. This is absolutely how a business should be run! I know I don't have time to deal with hassles, and plan on ordering all my future systems from KC Computers."

"Excellent prices, high quality, and a broad variety of computer components and fully- or partly-built computers, are all good reasons for shopping at KC Computers. But price, quality, and variety are not the best reasons. The best reason is the advice you get before the sale, and the lifetime support and advice you get after the sale--by far the best support I’ve ever encountered in the computer business, or in any other business.

When you have a question for KC Computers, you don’t wait on hold for half an hour or more until you eventually reach somebody who’ll read to you from a script that begins, “First, are you sure the computer is plugged in?” Instead, you send an e-mail message and receive a quick e-mail response (often a near-instantaneous response) that deals intelligently and succinctly with your particular problem. I’ve been a customer of Kevin Chalker’s (the KC in KC Computers) for six years now, on and off, and not once have I asked him a question he couldn’t answer, not once has he been anything but courteous, friendly, and encyclopedically knowledgeable.

KC Computers stands behind its products and its customers in a way that I truly believe is unique (and I do mean unique--unmatched by anything else) in the computer market. And if I sound like Kevin Chalker’s public relations firm, that’s because his public relations firm is very large: it’s made up of all his customers. If you’re in the market for a computer or a component, you’d be wise to join it.

"I spent a pretty good chunk of time deciding on what I wanted for the system I ended up
purchasing from Kevin (the owner of KC Computers). Kevin made it incredibly easy to
decide exactly what I wanted to get by fielding every question I had and answering it on
email in a matter of minutes, in most cases (even, on one memorable occasion, at 2100 on a
Sunday)! He is extremely knowledgable on everything relating to computing and hardware,
and answered all of my questions, even the most basic.

I did a lot of comparison shopping as well, using pricewatch.com, but upon comparing
many of the lowest prices with their scores on this website, I discovered that the lower cost
meant a great chance of not getting what I wanted, along with not having the security of having
KC able to handle things at any time, and even ship me a new part before receiving the old one.
While I suppose you could get lucky with another company, it would be impossible to go wrong with
KC Computers. I highly recommend this company.
