Sybaritic...any good?

[Jonny Two Shoes]

Hi all,

I had a quick browse through their site, their GFX card prices seem a bit off'ish unless Im mistaken but everything else looks pretty good. Are they worth looking at? Service and delivery?

There is very little mention of them here and I have found a thread where someone had a problem with a warranty of theirs but maybe they are better now?

I am actually looking for a good Tower no PSU required to replace my current one for something a little bigger and better, and some good cpu cooling stuff and modding...preferably not watercooling as that is a mission and also not willing to spend way too much. Would you recommend Sybaritic?

I have dealt with them a couple of times, and they are very good IMO. So yes, I will recommend them

I agree with LandyMan - Sybaritic are brilliant Not the most appealing of sites, but wonderful service.

YAAAAaa, oh my freaking word, ..their site is an abortion, ..looks like an 8 year old did it..

Their site is fast. I like fast.

Never bought anything from them... but Graham (i think) has always been prompt and efficient with responses.

The site is fine ... When I go to their site I don't evaluate it based on looks and design ... I can always find what I am looking for, the ordering process is simple, their feedback is quick wrt stock/no stock and their overall service is excellent, and like stoke said, the site is fast

hmmmm sounds like a good choice so far, thanks

Ive bought from them three times, not one problem so far. I would definitely recommend them.

I've bought most of my stuff from them for 2 years now. Prices are very good! (excect cpu's and gpu's) They have the widest range of items compared to any other online IT shop and service is absolutely, friggin awesome!

I bought an Audigy 2ZS from them the other day...the service was good but they didn't bother wrapping the box with brown paper so anybody could've stolen it (used snail mail) if they knew what it was. I'm quite amazed that it didn't get stolen. They ruined the box though with the postal stuff's stickers on it etc. The card works great and I guess that's what matters...

I've ordered stuff from The Prophecy shop twice without any problems whatsoever. Same applies to Take2 (but their pc prices are a tad expensive in some cases)

I've used them many times and their service is great. Once you have placed your order they will confirm availability before you pay. Just a word of warning, rather pay via EFT, the 6% charge for credit cards is a little steep (they use an escrow based account).

i've been happy with their service

 

[Onemaxup]

I bought my MCE components from them.. their service was brilliant - can definetly recommend them. and yeah, paid everything via EFT

 

[spike_za]

iv bought there a few times the service is excellent and the prices are good as well

 

[redarrow]

They are currently my online PC store of choice..

Had no problems or any other reasons to try somewhere else as yet..

Another stamp of approval from me...

I could be wrong but I think they droped that 6% thing.

Been using Sybaritic for a few years, great service and i especially like how i only pay once they confirm stock [unlike places like Digital Planet who'll tell you 2 weeks later something is delayed and will take ages to arrive AFTER you've paid] .
