Superb service!! Ordered A CPU Fan on sunday, got it on wednesday!! AFter a bad experience with SonicParts.com (see my comments there) I ordered Mobo+CPU also from there today. Order packaged and shipped in 2 hours!!- for 4 bucks S&H. Prices are about 10-15% higher than the lowest we see at pricewatch, but it is worth every penny. A+++ service , Strongly recommended

Extremely BAD experience. Ordered a K7S5A + Athlon XP 1800+ combo agter finding them in pricewatch and reding the comments here. I should have thought twice when the site said that shipping without insurance takes 7-10 days to process - explain that!. I shelled out extra 10 bucks for the insurance happy that its still agood deal.
It was not to be. I recieved an email 2 days later to contact them. On calling back I was told that the "OEM cpus will only be shipped on weekends as they do not get too many orders". Ofcourse I could "upgrade" to the SonicBox for 29.95 and get it shipped the same day! I declined. I mailed them later to say this was unacceptable and that my order be shipped promptly. The mail this time said that it will be shipped in 3-5 days.
2 days later I called them to figure out if there has been any progress. Now the customer service rep (he WAS courteous) stated that the CPU is now back ordered! Ofcourse it can be shipped the same day if I order the "SonicBox". I declined at this point and proceeded to cancel my order. The rep sounded extremely happy that I did! Meanwhile, I had ordered the heatsink from NewEgg the same day and had recieved it 2 days later!
After cancelling, I ordered the same from NewEgg. It was 16 dollars more expensive than the initial quoted price at SonicParts, but 14 less that if I ordered the SonicBox. They have processed and shipped my order within 2 hours!! for 4 bucks S&H too.
In short, SonicParts uses the pricewatch bait to lure you in. But they have NO INTENTION whatsoever to sell it you at that price. Shady buisiness practice if you ask me. I will never order from them again.
