I've bought lots of stuff from them with zero hassle. Usually arrived within 48 hours.

I came across a bunch of bad reviews on the Web. They had a fairly cheap DVD_RW months ago but it scared me away.

It's called "credit check".   :p ;)

Seriously though....a "bill me later option"??  They ship and you just pay whenever they get around to billing you?  Never heard of that.

with the "bill me later option" you actualy apply for a third party credit card at 17+% to pay for your purchase.

warning, there is no "grace period" and you will be charged a BIG late fee.

no , i didn't sign up , but i did read the small print.

I purchased a Plextor PX504A DVD+R drive from them, and it got here quick with no billing problems.  Only issue I had was that it was delivered two blocks away at a house with the same number as mine, but a different street - but I had good ole UPS to thank for that, since the correct address was clearly labelled on the outside of the box.

I guess I'll just save up the $$$ and piece my upgrade bit by bit...
They did the 'ol credit report dance on me...not behind any bills but was late fees on a few and my wife had maxed out a few credit cards.... like I ain't good for the money... Commies!

If you want to finance the computer, you'd probably be a hell of a lot better off with a personal loan from your bank or cu.

Yeah SOB I was thinking of getting a signature loan from the bank..can't give blood, the Army screwed that up for me...can't jump fences and steal pop bottles like in the '60s...opps giving away my young age of crime. LOL
  Somehow I'll make it... was gonna send Skuzzy an email. I'm still paying for the game and can't fly  maybe he'll adopt me. *yeah right*

  The withdrawals from not flying AH2 are killing me...all I have is a CD of Janes Air Superiority...which sux.

  I do have a vid card for my upgrade: PNY nVidia GeForce FX 5200 Ultra AGP, 128 MB DDR-650 MHz... box has been recently covered in tears... I miss flying with you guys.
