Talk Compusa made a boo-boo

I was surfing through Compusa's website and I went into their sub-category of Cooling and I was going through them, and the manufacturer names didn't make any sense at all. Like the fourth page I think or the third, where they had the Koolance products, they said it was manufacturered by PC Toys! that goes for many of their cooling products, we now know their supplier is pctoys.com

PC Toys is its own company. I doubt that compusa buys their products from PC Toys. Looks like it's just a webmastering error.

I went through the entire site, all PC Toys do is rebadge everything and charge an arm and a leg If you want cheap parts, look at newegg.com and crazypc.com's inventory, much much much cheaper.

CompUSA did not make a mistake. FYI, I work for CompUSA and just to let you know, PC Toys has partnered with Koolance and CompUSA. Koolance products aren't PC Toys products--we all know that.
