Xoxide experiences

[solja]

Does anyone have any experience with Xoxide.com? I made a recent order with them and wanted to know if any of you guys have did the same. Any good experiences? I hope so :). According to the email my order should be picked up and shipped out tomorrow, which makes me expect it around Mon or Tues... I'm anxious and ofc I will post my experience here aswell.

I've used them a couple of times before and I've had no issues. They're a pretty good store.

I've also bought from them with no problems.

I've bought from them. Shipped fast, and everything was in tip top shape.

more importantly that how the experince was what did you order??, not to be nosy.

I ordered a Sunbeam Minibaybus and got it a day early from what they estimated! I like them, especially since they use the whole yahoo! shops thingy.

I ordered 3 things actually... 80mm fan (http://www.xoxide.com/quadledred80.html), a pci slot fan (http://www.xoxide.com/red-uv-reactive-slot-cooler.html), and a red meteor strip (http://www.xoxide.com/meteorlightred.html)

I bought some red ccfls from ebay but they turned out extremely PINK and burned out 5 minutes after hooking them up so I decided since the "meteor" light is leds it will be more red and hopefully better quality.

by the way guys thanks for all the replies they really set my mind at ease

yeah i will order xoxide any day. THey have great shipping and fast service. tiger direct on the other hand.......never again. when I order a motherboard and pay for the next day delivery i mean next day not 8 days later.

[dfigravity]

I agree with everyone else here...great store, fast shipping and good products. I'll be ordering from them for a long time.

Oh, and for the future watch their site for deals. I've had some great luck finding cheap stuff (Blue Orb II for $25, AC Freezer 7 Pro $25).

funny, my ebay CCFL experince has so far been good. i bought daul 12" blue CCFL's and the next day a second set was at my door. i was like wtf? i emailed the guy and he said it was a mistake but not to worry about it. so i ended up with 4 12" blue CCFL's for 15us.

heh I paid $12 for 2 12" red ccfls and like I said they fried. I really hope it was just bad luck I mean after all every company can send out defective items, its just a part of ordering parts heh.

I dont mean to bumb the thread but I do have an update so I figured I'd share my own Xoxide experience.

Ordering was VERY simple, shipping was speedy and had pleanty of bubble wrap and things to keep my stuff from being damaged. everything came and looked almost perfectly identical to the pictures on the site, and everything worked properly :D w00t. I will definitely be ordering from Xoxide again.

depending on how money is when i decide to water cool i will have to order some stuff there since they have cheaper prices. but i wish they had more products.

I found that they have the more "hard to find products", and pleanty of things to mod with. Great little store :D and like you said VERY good prices...... remember the products are inexspensive not cheap. The 80mm fan I bought from them blows air better than the 120mm that came with the case

The pink thing happened to me too, I bought a red Thermaltake CCFL that turned out pink. But I really liked the pink, so I'm glad it turned out that way. Mine didn't fry on me though, but it wasn't a cheapo one so I guess I shouldn't expect it to fry.

I've never bought from xoxide myself, seeing as I'm in Australia so it's cheaper to get my stuff from local stores, so I can't give you feedback on any experiences I've had with them, sorry.

hehe its funny that you say that because the ccfls that fried on me was cooler masters I'm not sure if they are considered "cheapos" but I didnt think they was.... either way now I have a logisys meteor light and it is absolutely wonderful.

[Spawn-Inc]

are Logisys cheapo? thats the ones i have.

not at all Logisys are GREAT suppliers of case mod supplies such as lights... I have the logisys meteor lights and they are of ALOT better quality than the cooler masters
