"These guys are alright. Ordered a Shuttle Nforce2 motherboard, cheapest on Pricewatch. I ordered it around 7pm their time (way beyond the time they ship stuff), then tried to cancel the order about 3 hours later (Newegg had it for $3 more with free hat!), hoping someone would see it before they shipped it. But, of course, nobody checks their e-mail or their answering machines and the next day they shipped the product and THEN sent me an email telling me I couldn't cancel it.
Ah well, no biggie, I don't need the free newegg hat. Got my motherboard in about a week, booted up with no problem, and works great! Great online place to shop, just be aware you probably won't be able to cancel your order."

"CPUSolutions had the cheapest price for an A7V133 motherboard on pricewatch, so I ordered from them and got it in a few days. Unfortunately, I was unhappy to see that the board came OEM, and nowhere on their website did it say this motherboard was OEM. I expected it to come in a retail box.
Well, luckily the motherboard POSTed, but it refused to install my copy of Windows XP with Service Pack 1 streamlined into it. Always froze at "installing network" part, and I also got around 20,000 memory errors in memtest86 (memory is fine in other MBs). So I RMA'd the beast, got a call from Bo 10 days later that said he got his WinXP installed just fine. He did offer me a refund, which I gladly accepted.
Unfortunately, the refund didn't get processed so I had to call 12 days later, they found my refund laying on someone's desk waiting to be processed, and it posted on my account yesterday.
Overall, I was happy for the refund, but disappointed the motherboard was OEM and would not have purchased it had I known beforehand.
I ended up buying an MSI K7T Turbo2 from Newegg, used exact same components and runs my WinXP w/ SP1 perfectly and with no memory errors.
I do not recommend buying a motherboard from this company unless it explicitely says "Retail Box", otherwise you will probably get an OEM version."

"Purchased two sticks of PC3200 Samsung 256mb RAM (on 3rd party vendor) for a dual DDR motherboard. The sticks were identical, and the Samsung RAM I received was actually on the approved list for the Asus A7N8X, one of the pickiest motherboards for RAM! Ran memtest86 on it for around 10 hours and NOT ONE single error.
Best price on pricewatch (2 sticks for $68!), fast delivery, and good communication with tracking number. Would purchase from them again in a heartbeat."

"This company had the cheapest price on Pricewatch.com for a LiteOn CD Burner (40x12x48). Ordered the product, came in good timing, and works AWESOME! Great company!"
