    Hey, i'm not saying everyone should boycott or telling anyone what to do/not to do but i was made aware of it through LTT vids on youtube. The premise sounds great and the info on their site was very convincing. My major problem is with how this (or any) company deals with COLLOSAL fuck ups like mine.
     
    the person on the end of the phone i eventually managed to talk to had ZERO phone manner. He had a tone and energy level that screamed "hey I KNOW I KNOW i have been answering peoples complaints ALL FUCKING DAY" rather than "oh good lord that's terrible we'll sort this shit right now!"
     
    It makes a difference and the oversell on the site is unforgivable. It's a boutique style that's sold on the idea you get personalised stuff to your taste.
     
    NOTHING could be further from the truth and for that i cannot nor will i ever accept bullshit and poor service as "we are having problems bear with us"
     
    I have attached my tracking list (minus important info) if anyone wants a good laugh (or needs proof)

    HI All,
     
    this is my second month in the club and i have CANCELLED IT.
     
    I like most people who were interested in this went through their "style Profile" and loosely picked out what kind of stuff i wanted. I have a lot of muted and dark stuff so i wanted some colour so i picked the "pop" option. I also wanted smart stuff (biz casual) as i have enough t's and other stuff that is fun.
     
    THe first box arrived with a khaki windcheater jacket and a DARK GREY T........
     
    Now i know it's picked from a range of options but what i have a greater suspicion is that they send any old shit that they have a cheap deal that month with.
     
    If i selected smart and pop colours in what universe is a dark grey T and a Khaki windcheater either "smart" or pop colours?
     
    Not really happy with this i went to the website to maybe tell them in my profile or anywhere else that "this really isn't my kind of thing"......no such place exists. "You can send the stuff back" is the mantra........well considering the experience with my second box here's why i ill not be doing that or continuing with this company:
     
    It is now the 30th of Jan.
     
    I paid for my box on the 15th.
     
    I have yet to receive my box or garner a satisfactory answer from the company as to why my box hasn't arrived (and no I don't consider "please be patient" a satisfactory answer.
    Now at this point you may be saying "hey shipping problems happen" and you would be right but given the fact that their warehouse and HQ is EXACTLY 90 MINUTES DRIVE from me looking at a website that is :"tracking" my order that says it took 8 days for the box to be registered with USPS before being transferred to their delivery fulfilment place is bullshit. Plain and simple.
     
    If i lived on the east coast or alaska i could understand shipping problems and i can forgive shipping cock-ups if the company:
    a: doesn't send platitude meaningless emails "please be patient we are working hard during this transition" - I have waited 11 days for a box to be sent 90 minutes drive down the road i have been, by any definition of the word, patient already.
    b: The company makes even the smallest measure of recompense ( a percentage off the next box, an additional pair of sock for your trouble , literally anything to say "we fucked up massively here's a meaningful sorry" )
     
    At this point i feel it would have been better to stand outside Target or Walmart and hand a fucking stranger $60 with my waist and chest size and say "get me anything, it really doesn't matter"
     
    and finally , no it's not the end of the world, it's not a crushing weight in my life but the $120 i spent so far could have gone on a M.2 ssd or a new water cooling block or any number of things that would have made me smile.
     
    Lesson learned, fuck clothes always buy hardware

    I do agree the series might have been better if compiled into one (or perhaps two ~20 minute videos) or at least have been contiguous. The videos are quite scattered and I think that negatively effects the experience (from a viewer stand-point) a viewer takes away from watching them.
     
    That said, I did enjoy watching them.

    EVGA, just because it has the support from first party and third party developers, and better warranty. The problem with Asus is even when paying for a premium they leave you with no support with their products and makes you deal with their broken driver installation and I have rarely seen a graphic card from them to have a bios update or one that installs correctly.

    Had one in high school bought in 2007 during the recession for 10k. Great car for the experience of sound and backfire, but uses a quart of oil a month and is slower than a camry or mustang in a straight line.

    This was done to save money, and many past Nintendo handleheld chargers work with future ones. Repeat customers save money by not buying a charger they already have and new ones spent 10 dollars more. This exact thing popped up on reddit a few months ago and it didn't make a fuss like the linustechtip community did.
