Hi

Does anyone have feedback about buying through https://pclinkshop.com/?
I've come across a couple of sites that seem to have a very similar store front and products, and suspect they may be the same source. All products are imported from the US at much lower prices than elsewhere locally, so I'm a bit suspicious.
I've had experiences where the price changes dramatically on placing the order (from other sites) and they are covered for this in their terms. (ZAR vs USD etc.)

Any feedback most welcome...
Thanks!
 
I have bought through them before and they were great, item delivered quicker then expected
 
They list their address as "8 Peck Ave Florida Glenn 1708 " if you look on google its registered to PCLink, but then you check the streetview and its a random house :/

I would steer clear
 
He is using his house,doesnt mean its not legit.

I work from my house and I'm legit, but I hear your point. To be fair, I would rather hear actual reports of customer experiences, and not make assumptions based on their location!
 
I purchased a 13K item from them, delivered within the time frame they said. Again so what if they work out of a house, so do I, so do many people?

I've bought from them before, and had excellent service. Many people have home businesses.
 
I've bought from them and actually went to collect at the address in Florida Glen, so totally legit
 
Just a heads up people. I also bought from them before no hassle, but about 2 years ago they disappeared with 7.5k of my money after I bough items. After 2 weeks of refund promises I went to the house and there was nobody there. Owner has since skipped SA as far as I know. So NOT LEGIT. NOT EVEN CLOSE.

Only one director registered with CIPC: Paulo Vicente Fiandeiro, and his ID is 740405xxxx08x. Note that this is all public information.

PC Link Computers... What a scam

I bought a 6TB HDD from PC Link Computers on 10 Jan 2022. Received it on 17 Jan 2022. Reported it being faulty on 18 Jan 2022. They collected it on 21 Jan 2022. I've yet to receive any feedback regarding replacement or refund. They simply pocket the money and either ignore you when you email...
