"I ordered a copy of Windows XP Home OEM, and I received an OEM copy, but it was one of the "For distribution with a new ____ PC only" copy, with the computer company's logo and everything on the CD, no hologram or anything. A COA was included. When it installed, I wasn't prompted for a key (I'm guessing it was using a VLK that the computer company has on every CD), so when it was being activated it came back as an unauthorized product key which I had to manually change. But it did activate.
Also, the copy was SP1 which is now going through a lot of updates. I have a high speed connection, but it's still a pain to go through all of that.
In all, I saved about $10 over other retailers, and to be quite honest I'd rather pay the extra $10 and get true OEM software with SP2 to save the trouble of updating.
Shipping was prompt.
I haven't seen their other prices, so I would come back to see how they compare on other pieces of software, but not for XP. :-)"
"Prompt delivery. CD was bubble wrapped. Authenic Microsoft product. Excellent service."

"My experience was wonderful with eDirectSoftware. I purchased an upgrade of Windows XP Professional. The price couldn't be beat and customer service is very responsive and friendly. I received my item faster than anticipated (only 3 days to get down here to south Florida) and their customer service followed up to find out how my experience was. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a terrific deal. Thanks guys!"
"I ordered 2 software products, received both a bit quicker than promised. One item was incorrect so I emailed eDirectSoftware (after hours) and received an email first thing the next day. I was told the software I ordered was on backorder, but that what I received would work and that I could download the upgrade to what I ordered. They let me decide whether to keep it or return it and offered a $15.00 refund if I kept it. I decided to keep it and was concerned as to how long the refund process would be. The following day it was refunded to my account. All of this with no hassle, and no sweat. That is the way customer service is supposed to be. They are a great company and as long as they do business in this manner, they will continue to grow. My experience was excellent. I cannot say enough about how refreshing it was to have everything handled without having to fight for it. "

" I had no problems with the purchase save the fact that the key for the Windows disc did not come with it and I had to email for the key. It would have been nice to have the key printed on stickers in the jacket or something (which I did to the 4 discs).
The response time to my questions was excellent."

"Excellent experience. The product was as represented and more than was expected. Received an e-mail shortly after delivery, expressing interest in my satisfaction and soliciting questions. Response to questions was prompt. "
