Powercolor...  Currently very negative!

 

To start with you pay shipping.  Then their 15 business days turns into business days, because they don't stock last gen cards.  Finally they send you a crap upgrade that you don't want that in every metric that maters is a down grade.  Then when you call and ask they say "its a newer card" and when you complain further they want you to mail it back in at your expense and then they will see what they can do.

 

BEFORE R9-290 PCS+ cooler

Pro- Quieter, cooler, better looking, high clock speed 

After R9-290x Reference cooler

Pro- NONE, 1080/60hz display both cards always had 100+FPS

 

I would love to revise this if they come through this week, but I am very doubtful!

Fractal Design 7 out of 9: I had a question about define r5 case airflow, person replied back to me with experience with their personal computer in the define r5 within 24hrs, I also went on to explain that I found one of the GP-14 fans kinda wobbly when it's spinning. once again replied back within 24hrs to ask me to send shipping info and case serial number (not receipt) so they can ship fan to me. minus about 1 point because shipping took a while (1 week and a little more i think and also no shipping number) and minus another because no local department which could have decreased the shipping time.

 

EDIT: Did not pay shipping as well. Also, I saw someone else reviewing this case on newegg and he was saying how awesome the case was but he the power button needed a couple presses before it worked. He wasn't really complaining about it and didn't mind it that much but FD still replied and gave him the opportunity to send him a replacement power button.

BRRRT!

MSI Motherboard RMA

  • Do they require a receipt. Receipts can easily be misplaced or in some occasions meaningless because the item was purchased in a country without official resellers.

Not sure.  I had my motherboard registered beforehand and they already had the recipt information from Amazon.

  • Do they respond to you quickly? 1 point for within 24 hours. - 0.25 for every 2 days over that.

Yes. 1 hour.

  • Do they have local service centers? Shipping across borders can be very expensive.

Yea.

  • Do all the forms of communications they list actually work? Does someone pick up the phone?

Works very well.  Quick response times.

  • Do they pay for shipping both ways? 1 point for always 0.5 for outside the service centers country.

They pay for return you pay to get it there.

  • Quick turn around. How long does it take for them to process the item once they have received it. 1 point for under a week. -0.25 for every week over.

Took 3 days.

  • Do they falsify information? Did they make stuff up to avoid compensating you?

Nope

  • Did they give you goodies? Having to deal with sending something in causes undue stress and wastes your time. Did they compensate you for that?

Nope.  Packaging was quite bad however.  It was a motherboard box inside a noticeably bigger box.  Luckily, it wasn't damaged during shopping.

  • Do they have an advanced replacement policy? Minimize lost time.*

no.

Wtf? I think my post didnt get posted correctly. The RMA was through PcCaseGear, here is the examples:

  • Do they require a receipt. Receipts can easily be misplaced or in some occasions meaningless because the item was purchased in a country without official resellers.

No, but the fact i brought from them, they have one online.

  • Do they respond to you quickly? 1 point for within 24 hours. - 0.25 for every 2 days over that.

Within a hours and send details of returning the item.  

  • Do they have local service centers? Shipping across borders can be very expensive.

No, Due the fact i sent my item over state which only cost around 8 AUD dollars. 

  • Do all the forms of communications they list actually work? Does someone pick up the phone?

Email communication works well, i never need to call them up. 

  • Do they pay for shipping both ways? 1 point for always 0.5 for outside the service centers country.

No, i had to pay for return postage. 

  • Quick turn around. How long does it take for them to process the item once they have received it. 1 point for under a week. -0.25 for every week over.

It took them a few hours after they received the item it was processed as "Item Acknowledged"  but it took another 3 working days for them to send a replacement product(MX Master)

  • Do they falsify information? Did they make stuff up to avoid compensating you?

No, first i thought the problem was case by me (Had a mushy gesture button after a few month of usage). 

  • Did they give you goodies? Having to deal with sending something in causes undue stress and wastes your time. Did they compensate you for that?

They sent it back with express shipping which was sent on Friday so i had wait over weekend to get the item. 

  • Do they have an advanced replacement policy? Minimize lost time.*

Yes, they have fast RMA process allow you send item quickly if they found it problem of the product. I gave them photos comparison mushy button.

Where did you have to send the card

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.

1_Yes

2_ fortunately,  no.  Otherwise  i would have been done with sapphire. 

3I sent it back to the online retailer i bought it from.  The nice thing is it took about a week between the time i shipped the card and when i actually got a new card delivered..  So at least they were quick about it.
