I'm curious to see. It would be great to compare pricing. All good and well to say "I don't want to support deh chulounializt" but then have to pay 25% more at wesendthelightning.co.za , simply because they are "sons of the african soil (for now) (trademark) . Money talks. Let's see if he can put his money where his mouth is. Literally.

Bifrost Distribution T/A Rebel Tech is NOT FINE anymore. Rune Ravnsborg abandoned South Africa and emigrated to Germany. Real South Africans UNITE! Cease your support of the racist owners of @rebel_techza. My account was blocked by their implementer of #cancelculture when I challenged their residency state. No tolerance of the truth, so search the truth for yourselves. Fight their neo-colonialist control from Germany. Defund @rebel_techza. Keep your money in South Africa and support a more committed retailer!

@Jan the OP's OP :p
 
My only question if I buy from a local supplier is: Have they ripped of customers in the past. Past actions is the most accurate predictor of future behaviour.
If Rebeltech ripped customers off in the past, they'll do it again.
If they didn't then they probably won't going forward.
 
Ordered my PC parts back in 2019, and received great service when the GPU was faulty. I ordered a hard drive the other day and had no problems with them. So, I assume all is still good at Rebel Tech.

Aren't they just a drop-ship type company? If so, the OEM usually backs the warranty but you are probably going to have a painful experience in a claim situation.

Did not have any problems replacing a faulty Gigabyte RTX 2070 back in 2019.

When deciding to relaunch we committed to, and have, successfully settled every account from the original Rebel Tech (customer, suppliers, landlords, etc). Furthermore, every warranty from the original Rebel Tech has been honored. There has been no running or hiding.

You're great by the way! Will always purchase from you guys. :D

I was so sad when you closed down.

Fully agreed, talk is cheap.

We relaunched over a year ago and have not had any outstanding claims brought to our attention. I invite anyone, be that a supplier or individual, to contact us (via email) should this not be the case.

Not always the case. Yonks ago when I ordered a Logitech mouse, after 5 odd months later claimed warranty due to faulty clicking and Rebeltech's answer was "not our problem, contact Logitech" Avoided them completely since :P
 
Are you able to send the email thread to us?

This doesn't sound like something we would do, unless Logitech / distributor was not able to assist because of customer damage, liquid damage, wear-and-tear, etc.

Yonks ago, .. years before you guys even closed. As if anyone would keep emails from that long ago, let alone a bad company/experience with said company. There wasn't even a case of "lets ship it back and see", just a flat out response of "no sort your own issues out".

But you don't look at behaviour after getting caught with your hand in the cookie jar.
Everyone who does something wrong, gets caught and called out is "sorry" at that point.

Like re-launching and then saying, ok you know what, let's settle our accounts, etc. now that we decided we'll re-launch.

You have many "fans" here so no doubt it'll all be ok.

I don't have anything against you personally, but just calling out the elephant in the room.

I'm sorry this doesn't sound like us at all. We have always been known for assisting, and even if the item seems like a warranty void case, we will send it to the distributor for an assessment.
