Buyer's Be Warned and Beware!!!
DO NOT SHOP AT FACTORY DIRECT STORES!!!!!!
True Story
a friend needed 512 megs of RAM (MHz133) to upgrade another friends computer.
He wanted to locate the RAM ASAP rather than search the entire city for the cheapest place to buy this old RAM.
After a few calls he found out that Factory Direct had the RAM.
My friend walked in...asked for the RAM and purchased it.
Got home and discovered the RAM was faulty.
Returned to the store within 1hr...and was told by the clerk that they have a no money back or return policy.
My friend asked for the Manager who repeated the same crappy rehearsed line.
(Despite the warning signs of another customer who yelled within the store that no one should purchase from there bc they are thiefs...and he said this bc he purchased a dig cam and returned it 3x & all 3 cams were faulty...and this poor guy was pissed cuz the store manager told him he was shyte out of luck)
My friend was convinced by the sales clerk that they had no more 512RAM and that for extra money...he should opt to buy 2- 256megs of RAM
So he did..and took that home and found it was faulty too.
Went back the next day to Factory Direct and found out that their entire service department closes daily at 5pm...therefore...whoever works 9-5...is screwed.
So..my friend managed to buy the RAM somewhere else and that RAM worked fine.
So for those of you who might think of shopping there
BEWARE...SAVE YOUR MONEY...cuz your gonna get ripped off.

Please post your comments if you've ever been ripped off by this store or at any other computer stores.
Is it just me or are we seeing more and more of these kind of shady operations opening up every day?
