I order tech products for the company I work for and I vowed never to use them again, even before I heard about the scams they pulled. When I heard about the scams I knew that the feeling I had dealing with them was right on. Do yourself a favor - do not buy from them, do not post their products. I have to RMA products all the time. Never had a problem with the traditional good companies like Fry's Staples OD OM Newegg Computergeeks SVC CC Best Buy and many others. I can imagine trying to get an RMA or rebate from TD. Your nightmare has only begun....

Don't rely on people saying they got their rebates from TigerDirect. They are a minority.
More than likely, this deal will cost you the full initial out of pocket price.


Here's why:

Pass the word.


Every single time there's a Tiger Direct post, we get someone saying:
"Duuuh, I never had any problems, duh."

Then we have average Joe reading the thread saying
"See, he never had any problems, see?"

Then we see Joe placing an order with Tiger Direct because of that.

Finally, a couple of weeks after a Tiger Direct deal is posted we get this:
Originally posted by: tcsenter: Well I got mine, but it was DOA. So I had to box it up and ship it back to TD.
IT FIGURES!


Duh.

Basic search would reveal dozens of members that said much worse about Tiger Direct.

Standard thread crap rules don't apply to TD posts because of the sheer number of anandtechers who have posted details how they were personally screwed by TD. Can you extrapolate that into the general population? Can you imagine how many people out there are being screwed over on daily basis?

It's not uncommon to see 60% of the entire TD thread being warnings or thread craps, check and you'll see.

I don't see any items in the original post that even include a rebate. SO, what exactly are you bitching about?

Go outside, see the sunshine.

You want to support a company that illegaly charged a bunch of members here? Hell, even the Mods warned about this company. Tiger = bad mmmkay?

If you want to buy from them, fine. Don't come b!tching to us later.
