Looks like Computer Geeks has stocked the shelves

[scdill]

Lots of new systems up at Computer Geeks -- Dells, Compaqs, e-Machines, etc. Must be 50 or 60 of them.

bump, dang there's a lot of them

 

[junthin]

Yup that sounds about right, most makers are liquidating the old stock (it happens at the end of every year) so you'll usually see them in overstock/bulk buy type of stores like CompGeeks or Overstock.com . However, Compgeeks has been a bit slow on shipping lately.

too bad the 10% coupon is deadis there any other coupon deals from the geeks?

 

[Auric]

Compgeeks page shows MC offer expires on 12/31/2002.

 

[Rosebud]

MC Exclusives coupon works fine, just not with Geek Specials.

 

[Evilmage]

comp geek rules, shipping has probably been slow lately because of a lot of business. always been fast for me

I remember the geeks like a 2 years ago, they sure have a lot of business now

 

[Holycrap]

The real reason for all the new stock is that their major supplier, evertek.com, was not shipping product for 2 weeks due to the holiday, although they were receiving product and listing stuff for sale. They and compgeeks are very close, do a lot of business together, and you'll often see stuff at evertek sell out and show up at compgeeks 2 days later.

Sometimes compgeek buys in such large quantities that, especially with the Mastercard Coupon (shhh! I did not give the code, don't point a finger at me, I know better) you can by a single item for less from Compgeeks than you could from Evertek. All you need for an evertek account is a business name . . .they ship UPS COD, so just have a check handy . . they'll take personal checks . . .minimum order of $100, but they are often slow in shipping stuff out.

I looked into buying from Evertek a while ago, and it required more
than a business name. You needed a resale license and they were very
strict about that requirement...

TECHBARGAINS. 10% off.

ComputerGeeks and Evertek are basically the same company. Evertek is the wholesale side and CG is the retail side of their business.

 

[Bobartig]

A resale license requires like $20 and an hour of your time at the courthouse (heck, parking costs more!). What does evertek carry?

 

[bambam]

To belabor the resale license thing a little more. In some states you will be obligated to file a sales tax return whether you do or do not you resell the merchandise.

jimmyhaha, I surprised you had a problem RMAing an item to them. I bought a refurbed Lite-On DVD from them in December only to find it hadn't been very nicely refurbed (either that or UPS decided to drop it a few times and dislodge something in the drive mechanism). I emailed them over a weekend and had a prompt reply Monday morning with an RMA# for a full refund with no "restocking fee."

Great, they have stock...but be warned that the stuff does not ship for 5-7 days. They claim holiday crunch.

yeah..they extend it

Just pray you don't have any kind of problem with your order.

I ordered a picture frame, and they gave me the run around for a MONTH.

Reason - they were planning to bump up the price from $99 to $119, so they figured they'd hassle everyone they could out of their order.

I sent three very calm e-mails to them, only to receive very annoying, useless e-mails in return. Incidentally, every phone call yielded little or no help, and took at least 5-10 minutes of my time. Did I mention no 800 number?

Never again. I'll look for deals elsewhere, simply out of principle.

Hey, what does it take for CompGeeks to answer their e-mail? I have a DOA power supply and have e-mailed them at several different addresses with no response. The one-year guarantee of the psu is not much good if the company won't stand behind it. :disgust:

could you elaborate? i've always wanted to get on ingram's website.

 

[MickeyBoy]

Hi again,

Please ignore my post - just got an e-mail from tekgeek with an RMA number. The customer service people, to whom I wrote first, still have not replied.

<< too bad the 10% coupon is deadis there any other coupon deals from the geeks? >>



Yes! There are TWO 10% OFF coupons right now for CompGeeks (can be found...).
