Is IBUYPOWER a scam?

Hello

for about 3 weeks now Ive been looking for a place that ships gaming computers to canada. The problem with building one is that I really never have the time to do it. I came across this website named IBUYPOWER Which happens to ship to canda. Now when I check on google cause im suspicious that it is a scam I get 2 sides. One half saying that they recieved their product and loved it and others saying that they got scammed.

Please help me asap.

Alrighty. Not saying your lieing or anything could I get a few more people to post they're expierience with IBUYPOWER?

IBUYPOWER and CyberpowerPC are legitimate PC building websites at fairly good prices.

Its just that I hear thier custimer service sucks (which isnt a big deal when you consider building a PC has no customer service itself, and the prices of IbuyPower and CyberPower a similar to building one yourself).

ABS is also a really nice online company to buy a computer from.  We bought ours from them and have been nothing but happy with the experience.  They even called our house a few days after we received it to make sure everything was ok and that we were happy with our purchase. Who does that nowadays?

This fall when we buy our new computer I'm pretty sure we will be sticking with ABS.

Ok so IBUYPOWER is legit, but just crappy customer support?

im mainly asking because when i tried to order my comp after i gave in all my info they needed it told me an error has occured. 

If I buy Power doesnt work, try CyberPowerPC.com, I think they are the same company anyways :P

Don't buy from them, they aren't good (even though the price is pretty good).

NCIX.com is a great place for canadians to buy parts.  Cheap and quick.  But DO NOT buy full systems from them, they are way overpriced.  Buy them part by part. 

Dont buy from them, they sell crappy built computers and have no care in the world if they build with quality in mind. I have bought a computer from them and I was not satisfied at all. It may be cheap and tempting but the stress you will deal with is just not worth it. Really do yourself a favor and look at a different company.

  Dont support a company that doesnt care about the customer, and also from the Better Business Bereaus they got a c- i beleive so why trust your money with a company that has that many complaints about them.

Please dont buy from them. 

Don't buy from them. Not only do they have bad customer service but they build computers using the worst quality parts.

Stick to newegg and build it yourself.

ur sig sucks. blizzard makes awesome games

Yeah, Blizzard Rulez D00Dz. Nothing compares with a company that rehashes the same mindless game over and over and over. Welcome to the world of lowered expectations I guess...

For the OP, here's the link: www.abs.com

IBuyPower.com is legit. My current rig that I picked up a good year ago is from them:

AMD 64 X2 3800+, 2GB RAM, 2x Nvidia 7600GT (SLI config), 160GB hard drive, 1 DVD/CD burner and 1 DVD/CD drive and the basic Windows XP Home Edition (also came with free water cooling system)

Got it for around $1,050.00 from them.

I had no problems with my computer, other then the fact that the first hard drive I had in my computer crashed after about 2 months....the customer service is pretty pathetic because it took me 4 different attempts at calling them to finally get an RA# to return my bad hard drive....plus it took them a week longer then they said it would for my new hard drive to come in.

Other then that, I haven't had any issues. Basically just poor customer service.
