    I had the problem of being short changed on my refund of an out of stock laptop. I spoke to one of my customers, who works in a bank, and they told me it was the currency exchange rate difference between buying and selling.

    Thats what happened in my case too. Really frustrating when you add on the cost of the phone calls (put on hold) to the UK number. Effectively bout 25 quid out of pocket for nothing. I emailed them and even sent them screenshot of credit card statement (highlighting the difference in original charge and refund) and thought they may offer a discount or voucher to counteract the loss ...but nothing. The irony is this is the third time Ive tried to buy from them but it never worked. I really wanted to deal with them but never going to look at them again and telling everyone l i know bout my experience with them, so they dont get caught too.....

    It really grinds my gears:mad:

    Just ordered an MSI GX660R a few minutes ago,

    Got the usual order problem, rang them up 2 minutes before closing time, got through in under a minute and was resolved in less then that time. Maybe I just got lucky with my timing but the guy on the phone was extremely helpful.

    Hopefully here by thursday.

    Apart from saveonlaptops letting the phone ring out, I don't think there's any difference.

    As for the Cash back, you'll just have to read the terms and conditions to see if you qualify.

    bought a thinkpad edge from them recently. very prompt shipping i have to say but you need to call them to verify your credit card is annoying.
