| 276898 | 2006-01-15 10:24:00 | Ascent have great service. Hardware just seems to die around me - especially hard drives - so I have to be carefull who I buy from. I'm carefull enough, but I've had 4 out of 6 hard drives I have bought (excluding warranty replacements - haven't killed a replacement yet) die on me. One of them was a second hand quantum fireball, one was a Western Digital cavaiar SE, one was a cheap maxtor, and the latest is a Seagate Barracuda. My bad luck doesn't seem to respect quality any more than it respects crap. |

| 276899 | 2006-01-16 00:42:00 | Ascent are my choice as well, nice clean site- not cobbled together out a few pieces of string and a stick, service is great and they keep you informed where your order's at. | Shortcircuit (1666) | ||
| 276900 | 2006-01-16 10:52:00 | Forgive me for being a cynic, but why would anyone dredge up a 2month-old post to make their first post as a praise - ostensibly for Ascent, but actually to put anothers web address on the forum. Let's be realistic. People make their first post usually with a question. Hasn't done him/her any obvious good, as the following discussion is on Ascent. So are you spam, ShiniNZ? |

| 276902 | 2006-01-23 21:31:00 | I suggest you NEVER GO TO SUPER CHEAP :angry or Global Computers in Pitt st Auckland as they are the [pits]. Sell goods but dont give warranty service. I bought a Asus A8V motherboard and it failed to work when first installed. Checked everything out and was faulty. Returned board. So advised them within 7 day period and asked them for money back and demanded a refund. This was early December last year. After numerous emails and phone calls and faxing the completely ignored my requests so Got a Abit mother board and used this and worked without a hitch. Went and comfronted Supercheap and asked for money back as taking too long and pointed out that already. Over a month had gone by. Just as well I didnt decide to wait for this board to be returned. As still would be waiting. I asked them I had sent numerous emails to them. The Manager a lady said we dont read emails. her words not mine. I said why have a email address.? She gave no answer. I said the copies of what I sent to you are on your website under my account. I showed my copy to them 2 pages long. The retailer under the Consumers guarantee act I understand do give a option of a refund which I asked for and was refused. I then asked for other goods of same value and they refused to do this also. I told them if you refund I will buy a whole lot more parts off of you. This they refused so missed out on over $900 in sales. They also tell me they have gone right out of Asus mother boards. So the reason to palm / offer the replacement when it arrives. I was told by another dealer they buy the seconds old stock etc and onsell. So may be the case with this shop.? SO WARNING KEEP CLEAR OF SUPER CHEAP at all costs. They have my money and I dont have my goods. They wouldnt like it if the tables were reversed would they.? |

| 276903 | 2006-01-24 02:35:00 | I wouldn't be giving up there for the price of a motherboard. Tell them in writing that under the goods and services act you require an immediate refund as they they have not been able/willing to repair/replace the item within a reasonable timeframe (1 month is plenty). Note also that it is the responsibilty of the store, not the wholesaler to resolve the problem. Also make it clear that if this is not done you will take them to the small claims tribunal/disputes tribunal and stick to your guns. |
