Yeah, I've bought ALOT off them over the years so I'd say they are trustworthy sellers.

It's 100% reliable, probably the biggest online store for this things in the UK. Scan and ebuyer are good alternatives if you want to compare prices

Their reseller rating says they are pretty poor and it matches my experience. If what they send you works and is the right item then overclockers.co.uk is absolutely fine and they do nice quick delivery. But if you get a faulty part then you may have to take them to court. OCUK is famous for having the worst RMA in the industry, they will "test" a broken GPU and clear it as fine when it clearly doesn't even boot up at all. Which is how they got a terrible resellerrating, their RMA process is mostly scamming people and you will have to assert your rights.

 

I got to the point of filing paperwork with the courts before they finally caved and replaced a clearly dead on arrival motherboard. I certainly don't trust them

I haven't had any issues with overclockers RMA with the only item I've had to send back as faulty apart from them screwing me over when it came to them refunding what I'd paid to send the item back to them, but it was only by a few pence so I didn't press it any further (because I'd gotten fed up with having to call them).

 

Thus far, I've purchased two graphics cards, several USB flash drives, several cat5e and cat6 networking cables, two HDMI cables, one optical audio cable, one keyboard and mouse combo set, one hard drive and one mid tower case and a majority of it is still working (I threw out one of the networking cables due to excessive ware on the lock tab on one end, and I think that one of the HDMI cables has a dodgy plug or it's the HDMI socket on the TV).

 

The only thing I haven't mentioned is the tablet I purchased from them which was some generic system they imported from China and sold with a marked up price tag even though I didn't pay that marked up price since even though they replaced the original I was sent as it could only take power from the mains it's still a pile of garbage that was rooted out of the box rendering several games and applications completely useless.
