5/5

posted Jul-09-2008
I can't believe no one has reviewed this company lately. They are among the best in surplus in my book! A real gem!
While planning anther order, I saw that they also do repairs of audio, video, medical and specialty electronics including items often considered unrepairable. I repaired TVs as a kid, and sometimes fix electronics for friends now because now, because few "repair" shops today do anything but swap out mobos/CRTs/PS modules for big bucks (one told me their insurance didn't cover real high voltage repairs), but from the clarity of the monitors I've gotten, AccurateIT seems to really refurbish/refocus monitors, vs just wiping them off. I'm a serious DIY techie, but if I ever needed something repaired, I'd go to AccurateIT first, based on the quality of their refurb work.
My first order, a refurbed 'grade B' 21" Sony (huge at the time) was under $130 incl. S/H, but looked/displayed almost like new, and years later, it's still sharper than many new monitors. I've bought/referred many times since, most recently a used HP Evo P4 2.6 GHz desktop for my aging father. He's very happy with it: it looks great, and was under $100 incl. S/H!
Another good thing about them: their prices are real (no gimmicks or loss-leader sales). If you buy a monitor, and your buddy wants one, too, after seeing it, he'll likely get the same deal (or very similar) even weeks later.
