    :( Well that's crap. Tell scan that they'll never be able to repay you for the damage caused. :pac:

    Maybe your brother might be able to get you cheap parts in the future from abroad. :)

    May ask them for the Nvidia 3D kit to compensate for emotional damages.

    I understand that stock level can be hard to keep track of but to have items listed on your site as being in stock a week after an email was sent out to say that your order is delayed due to said items not being obtainable is a bit of a joke and to take nearly a week to respond to an email is rather poor form. I ended up changing the motherboard I wanted to the next one up so that I could get it sometime this year expecting that they may say forget the 4 pound difference, a small apology for your delayed order but checked the account today and found that they'd charged me it. I really don't mind if it means I get my order soon.

    I doubt I'll be using scan again once I get this order. Just recieved an email fron scan to say that dpd could not find my house. I'm curious why dpd did not simply ring me on 1 of the two numbers I provided when making the order rather than contact scan to say they could not find my house which tbh no other courier has ever had a problem locating.

    Scan said that they hope another delivery attempt will be made tomorrow so I provided them with 5 additional numbers of family members and told them I want guaranteed delivery tomorrow or else they are to contact dpd and have the order returned and my money refunded.

    That's very poor overall. I've used them a few times but never had anything like this, make sure that you post your experience in the retailer discussion thread.

    Finially got the delivery today only to discover that the friend who is to build it for me is gone away for two weeks with his girlfriend. Thankfully I have another friend who built his last machine so were going to have a crack at it ourselves later on.

    The monster is up and running. So nice to finially get it all sorted and be able to sit back and play Call of Duty Black Ops on highest settings.

    Came in here for pics to show a friend and it seems that I never posted pics of my behemoth. Will take some and finally upload them tomorrow. The machine is running like a dream, got a 3D kit 2 weeks back and could not be happier with my gaming, editing, FXs work and programming.
