Has anybody used this company with success?

Today their special is a NEC dvd burner, which Tomshardware (3500 v 5320
model though) seems to rate well.

not yet, but I'm watching it... Mr ex PC Company(Colin Brown?) and his
brother(or son?) are running it.

Bruce Simpson passed comment on it in the last week or so.

I have ordered one of their PCs, it hasn't arrived yet though. I figure that
at the price I can't go far wrong.

I got 3 free monitors too... the other day there was a cock-up and someone
forgot to put a price on the monitors they were supposed to be selling for
$99.95. I ordered 3 to see what would happen. They fixed the mistake pretty
quick, but decided to honour the purchases.

I wouldn't have worried if they had cancelled it but I was quite impressed
that they didn't even try to. It did cross my mind that it may have been a
marketing exercise, but they haven't mentioned it since so I guess not.

So far, so good...

I've never heard of them. What are they. No address. Only one item for sale.
Looks like a rip off to me.

Hi Thing, I've bought a couple of things from them and had no
problems.
It's run by Colin Brown of PC Company infamy, he seems to be handling
it well enough.

Idea off the top of my head, be in now for a good deal, the risk remains
that trouble could be ahead. ;-)
