It's quite a pity, I was seriously considering doing business with him before this thread.

I'm still kinda hoping he has a legitimate excuse for this childish behaviour and why his website is almost 10 days overdue.

lilDeath · Jun 8, 2006

hectic rundown incubate, hectic. I hope you get your money back.
Just terrible.

This has all-in-all not been a good experience...
Now because of this, I am already doubting others in the same line of business due to his attitude and behaviour !!!
not cool

incubate · Jun 8, 2006

mooK he doesn't have an excuse

, as you can see from his replies to me. If I were you I would not do business with him. You don't want to go through this kind of crap. Shopping is supposed to be a nice joyous thing

lilDeath · Jun 8, 2006

darn it, looks like the threads have been merged... lost my place now

edit: k nm, back ontrack

Person · Jun 8, 2006

I happen to know where his case is, as Fedex sent me a mail while i was away... simple fact is im no longer willing to sell it to him. Money will be refunded, but thats it.

lilDeath · Jun 8, 2006

That it?

No explanation for your behaviour and questionable business practice?

No time?

This is your chance to give your side of the story....

I happen to know where his case is, as Fedex sent me a mail while i was away... simple fact is im no longer willing to sell it to him.

haha that's a funny one Person because when I phoned Fedex they had no details on the case and in fact I talked to someone who could check at Dot and they said nothing was there, like you said it was. And say you are telling the truth which I know you're not then why did it take so long to get to me and why did I have to follow up.

Send us the proof of your tracking number so we can all see and lets ee when it was shipped if you even produce a tracking number. And the tracking number info should say whats inside so don't try and fake it

Come on Person show us the proof. When you gonna make the transfer, I don't see anything yet.....Oh right 8 weeks. Better not be as I will take you to the small claims court and they will freeze your assets.

You sound like a kid dude. I know where the case is but I won't give it to you anymore.....waaah waaaah!

You know like everyone says you should just send the case to save face, but you're too arrogant right?

mooK · Jun 8, 2006

Person, why don't you try to tell us your side of the story? Or do you simply not give a crap?

mooK · Jun 8, 2006

The only possible explanation I can think of is that Person is having a nervous breakdown and is mentally unstable or he's experiencing some kind of debilitating depression.

incubate · Jun 8, 2006

But what side could he have. Even if he did have a good reason for ignoring me then why not make up for it. His replies speak for themself. He's a cu*t and acts like a baby.

He can't squirm out of this situation as the digital age has lots of ways to keep records. Proof of payment is very concrete from the banks and i'd have to sign for the package and it would have a tracking number to my address or is Brian gonna try and forge that as well. Wouldn't surprise me.

Come on show us the proof you sorry woos.

AntiThesis · Jun 8, 2006

So clearly you have learned nothing from all the anger directed at you in this thread Person? The single person who has said anything good about you is someone who actually dealt with you face to face. I assume you find it harder to not deliver when there's a chance the bloke might show up and kick your ass.

Your responses have been sloppy and slow. Sales have been inadequate and badly handled/delivered. You in fact have the air of someone with injured pride as if the world is ganging up on you. Unless you post some very convincing explanations fairly soon I'll join with others (I'm sure incubate will help) to make sure you have as much trouble doing business in this country (or any other) as possible.

Just so you don't forget, some of your statements have been:

person said:

- So why in the blue **** didn't you get it to him? Surely you can organise something that easy? Also doesn't answer the question of why it took 7-8 weeks in the first place.

person said:
I’m not going to bother to reply now, because frankly I have had enough.

person said:
by the time I received it - SA was 7pm.

person said:
There is no point in me checking mail, as i dont have pricelists or tracking numbers with me. So i dont, if he must contact someone he can just E-mail Sales@dotcomputers.co.za

- As if you're doing him the hugest favor in the world by allowing him to buy from you.

person said:
well seeing as i was closed for the last month, and im away on a buisness meeting, there is not much i can do..

- Why in God's name would you close your business down for a month without sorting out orders first?

person said:
What are you looking for ? I'll be able to source it for you.

- Just not deliver it or explain why you can't?

person said:
Easy, I just did... Its the only way we'll be able to offer you the best prices and service from June.

Best? Really?

If this seems like a personal attack on you person well, it is. I think you've behaved disgustingly and have treated customers and potential customers with less regard than I'd give our minister of communications.

Oh i'm with you AntiThesis. Oh i just got this idea from someone. You are the sole distributor of Alienware and OCZ. I'm sure if they got this post you wouldn't be any longer. So be careful buddy

AntiThesis and me might even start something like Hellkom for you

I would like my case gift wrapped please

Yes this is a threat

, don't like it....well frankly I don't care what you think jackass

RSx · Jun 8, 2006

He is acting like a 2 year old! I wonder if we could get Person/DOT banned from Selling on MYADSL?

The guy is 19/20 years old trying to run a business and treating customers like dirt. Simply ignoring them or giving them bogus info about their orders.

One thing is certain I will never buy from DOT/Person. I would much rather pay a little more and not have to deal with a child.

Brawler · Jun 8, 2006

My experience with dotcomputers.
Ordered Gigabyte 7900GT, was promised to be delivered within 48 hours. After countless calls and vague answers from Brian he said that the card had been lost/stolen in the courier (tracking number?????). So a week later he sends another 7900gt(different brand but i agreed cause i needed a card asap). That card eventually arrived a day late( 9 days in all). Oh yes i also orded a soundcard with the gfx card but that didnt arrive, so i got refunded.

Whats crap in your guys cases is that now Brian is no longer in SA so you cant phone and nag like i did so i think you got slim chance im sorry to say.

What i find funny is that he makes dotcomputers sound like some big ass company eg 'head offices are in boston', 'accounts will refund you' etc mean while it is a one man show which he told me on the phone.

And whats happening with the website brian? and alienware?
Your attitude alone on these forums lately has destroyed the faith of the few supporters you had.

I think the guys can hurt Person the most if they contact Alienware and let them know about this.

Personally I think Person is full of BS and he was never going to sell Alienware.

AntiThesis · Jun 8, 2006

I've already contacted AlienWare and Ocz with a preliminary "feeling out". Don't worry person, I haven't actually made any specific reference to you yet. I'm waiting to see if this is resolved first.

incubate · Jun 8, 2006

If it was alienware, he probably would open the cases and remove the expensive parts and put in crap.

dualmeister · Jun 8, 2006

We banned him from selling stuff on our forum a while back. He couldn't understand why. Well dude, take a another read over the last 13 pages ....
