| 1174928 | 2011-02-03 04:06:00 | Hi all just a warning to anyone looking to do dealings with computer broker (i think thats the name they are going with now) Stay as far away from them as possible they are the single worse computer store ive been to in christchurch . I had a computer serviced in there to get a new video card . One of the techies sold me a video card threw his Cousin 2nd hand . Went and bought that took that back to computer broker had that put in took it home tryed it out didnt work at all . I tryed to go back they said it was the power supply so i got that replaced . Got the computer back again and the old power supply, i then tested the power supply when i got home the old power supply worked and the video card that i got from one of the employees of computer broker didnt . When I tryed to go back i think his name was murray or something told me pretty much told me tough **** kicked me out of the shop and ripped me off 170 dollars and got screwed with one of the employees cousins . So to all that are looking for a good computer shop to go to go to dragonpc or PCU there business ethics are way better then dirty old computer broker whatever you do dont go to computer broker it has to be the single most terrible computer service shop in all of christchurch |

[/CODE] So to all that are looking for a good computer shop to go to go to dragonpc Dragon PC have a bad reputation for honouring warranties. (geez, funny how that keeps popping up everywhere) And you bought a used GPU, how is that the shops fault? |

| 1174930 | 2011-02-03 04:42:00 | Your right it isnt there fault but telling me to **** off and there terrible business ethics is honestly. Dont shop at computer broker they are just terrible and i guess its ok for techies to tell there customers ok dont buy anything from our shop go out and buy something from my cousin that doesnt work and isnt even on any kind of warrenty and then we can install it onto your computer just so you waste a crap load of money and more time just so my cousin gets the money and u dont get anything at all not even a warrenty your right it isnt there fault at all not one single bit thought they were professionals i was wrong now i know they just like selling things to there cousins |

| 1174931 | 2011-02-03 05:06:00 | I agree with Kingbill Never buy from computer broker. Their customer service is as bad as their products. My 22 inch monitor went blank and sometimes the Monitor Menu kept popping up by itself disrupting my work. when I contacted the computer broker customer service they said " Take it to a nearest technician". They would not follow up on this at all and in the end became very rude about it. |

| 1174934 | 2011-02-03 05:32:00 | Buying second hand computer components is always a bit of a gamble. Thats why I dont really want to sell second hand stuff. But that said, when I have, and other places should as well, if there is a problem right away, it should be fixed one way or another. Not telling the customer to bugger off. Any second hand components should be tested and in working order when sold. |

| 1174935 | 2011-02-03 06:34:00 | Lol! Same person for sure. The language is similar for both users. | pine-o-cleen (2955) | ||
| 1174936 | 2011-02-03 06:35:00 | i completely agree but unfortunately they lost a customer when this happened so ya all i can say is in my opinion stay away from them and pay extra to get first hand goods from a supplier that works for you ive never had a problem with dragonpc i think they are good and they supply stuff that is a little cheaper then the rest of them havent had a problem with there warrenties so far but i cant speak for everyone | kingbill40 (16214) | ||
| 1174937 | 2011-02-03 06:35:00 | should be 3 months warranty. my brief encounter they reimage and test it. occasional when the case was loose they got exchanges or refunds. thou they were dodgy they say yes to things they know they do have but say not sure to things they know it doesn't have lol. i gather better on trademe for new stuff. u could get a ex lease dell for fifty bucks working with windows license. :pf1mobmini: |
