    Hi everyone.

    I normally order everything from Komplett, but they don't have what I'm looking for this time. Pixmania do, are they trustworthy? It's about 200 Euros worth, any problems I should expect?

    Thanks.

    You'll probably get an awful lot of people on here telling you they are rubbish, i've had one or two problems myself with them. If the product you receive is working fine, no probs, but if there's a fault you're looking at 6 or 7 weeks (in my experience) to get it replaced which is quite annoying to say the least.

    Thanks.

    Are Dabs.ie any better?

    I'll let someone else field that one as i've no experience of them! prices generally look reasonable enough though...

    Pixmania are the same company as Currys/Pc World

    I've had experiences with Dabs.ie, security is tight with them on Your first order, they make You verify address which will add a few days to Your first order, but ordrs after that are fine. Even though You order through their .ie site, all orders get shipped from UK

    I've ordered from Dabs for years without problem. Once I had to RMA a graphics card that was about 10 months old. They paid for the courrier and refunded me (this took about 3 weeks), so I would recommend them. If you have to send anything back just pack it well. The RMA page on their website even prints you a packing label!

    Dabs are fine, apart from the security check thing. Pixmania i find lolz. i ordered a 4890 and got a Nc20 delivered instead.

    Rma With dabs can be a bit of a hassle, same with pixmania

    Out of interest, what are you looking for ?

    What would be considered adequate, and do you just e-mail it to them or what?

    Thanks
