Glad to read here they are an 'established' company as I was a bit worried having just ordered off their web site an Acer Aspire 8930G - 864G64BN laptop for £730 which is a whopping £269 cheaper than the RRP and £140 cheaper than the next nearest price (offered by play and amazon).
Free delivery and no credit card surcharge ... seemed too good to be true and I have often read the advice on these forums (long time lurker ^^) regarding that state of mind!

Anyhow, fingers crossed and I shall update you when received.

Hi

I am a little nervous after placing my order with scitech, i haven't been able to contact them at all.

Can anyone advise what numbers they are using and whether they receve comunication from them other than confirmation of the order?

I ordered a PS3 on Sunday and need to receive it before the end of July which i'm hoping isn't out of the question?!

I rang them today to double check on my order above - I used 0161 330 0072. The first two times in the morning it was engaged and third time just after 2pm it was answered after about 7 rings.

A helpful chap told me it would likely be despatched Tuesday or Wednesday next week, he said they did usually despatch before the 7-10 day free delivery period but having read previous posts re the Wii I am not so sure, maybe computers are different?

My enquiry emails before placing my order for a Wii and Wii fit were answered promptly, however after having £200 taken from me on the 9th July it's almost been 3 weeks and no sign of my order.

Dozens of emails have not been replied to!

A hundred or so phone calls won't connect!

I feel scammed, so I have no option but to get help from trading standards and seek legal help.

I hope you requested like a 90% discount, because if i was told after 7 weeks that it's on its way I would be taking legal action anyway.

I have not been waiting quite as long as many, for £230s worth of Wii equipment, but today I see on their website many items are tagged "Catalog Suspended". I am even more worried now!

Oh my goodness you're right, what does catalogue suspended mean? I am very concerned and think i might be getting onto my bank asap:eek:

Well if mine doesn't turn up tomorrow I too will be on to my bank to get a refund!!
