Hmmrph BuyRite

[dcsas]

Has anyone been to buyrite's site lately, it looks damn professional now and their now Verisign Secure. I was just wondering has anybody ordered stuff from them lately, and if so did everything go smothly?

 

[MrMonk]

I've purchased from Buy Rite in the past without any trouble.

three years now...I love um.

This has been asked many times before. If you buy from Buyrite, you're BUYING WRONG. Use at your own risk and don't whine to us when they screw you over. <img src="graemlins/shame.gif" border="0" alt="[Shame]" />

Would be fine to find a forum's member who lives close to them.
He could pick up games directly and do a great service for many of us.

Maybe someone happens to live close to buyrite..

all i know is they keep sending me spam after spam. i typically get the same email five times when they update their stock and they won't remove my address.

isn't there some law that requires them to remove me from their list when i request to be?

If they won't remove you, report them as spammers. Go to <a href="http://www.spamcop.net," target="_blank">www.spamcop.net,</a> copy the full headers and body of the email into their reporting window and submit, and they'll be reported to the ISP they used to send the email (and to any ISP who hosts links embedded in the message). That might get them moving on removing your name . . .

BWAHAHHAHAH!!! Buy-Rite.. well, I've been having a tet-a-tet with them for a while.

They're morons, they're a little dingy store. STAY AWAY! Their prices are F'N terrible and they ship like shit.

You'd be well-advised if you just STAY AWAY.

$99 for a NGCD power Adapter?
They tried privately buying my Jag collection off me on ebay for PEANUTS.
Shipping carts in a priority mail box with no packing?
Shipping cd's in an envelope?

Keep that in mind.

They're in Raleigh, but having been there I'd recommend that you avoid them. They say (as below) that 98% of their vintage (mostly PSX) titles are incomplete. About once a year I manage to rescue a truly decent title, but most of the time the difference between their website and their stock is mindboggling.

The last time I was there I took 6 PSX titles to the desk and told them I'd buy any and all of them that they had complete and in at least very good condition. Keep in mind that their store has the case, back, and instructions for the titles on display, and most of the display items are in at least good condition. Anyway, I took 6 complete cases to the desk, so they'd need only the disc to complete.

They went into the back and said that for the 6 games, they only had 1 that was complete. The display cases were not for sale, and their explanation for the games not being complete was, "These games are used! And 98% of used games are not complete!"

BUT IF YOU GAVE ME THE DAMN DISPLAY CASE, IT WOULD BE COMPLETE!!! AND IF YOU ONLY EVER HAD YOUR DIRTY HANDS ON A SINGLE COPY OF THIS GAME, THEN THE DISPLAY CASE IS THE CASE THAT CAME WITH IT!!!

To sum up, if you thought that ordering online was bullshit, you should be there in person when they tell you they don't have the complete game that is sitting on the counter and staring them in the face. <img src="graemlins/ohno.gif" border="0" alt="[Oh No]" /> <img src="graemlins/veryangry.gif" border="0" alt="[Very Angry]" />

Buy-Rite is fucking garbage. The worst service, high prices, shoddy packing...is there any other way they could fuck up? Steer clear people.

 

[Bluevoodu]

I don't want to write out my 3 stories again... but I would definitely stay away.

what are you planning on buying?

[don-franco]

A few years ago I started Buying Import games from for my saturn and then my Dreamcast.The only thing to order from them is New Games and make sure you order over the phone or you wont get them.But I would not recommend them at all.I ordered 50 Ikarugas and they took my money and then rejected my order.I then had to contact the FBI on them for stealing 4000 dollars from me.They took my money probally to pay off bills and then when they had the money they gave it back.The assholes also buy stuff up on EBAY their name is GAMEBUYERS and I hate them.They Shill bid and overcharge everything.One day I will open a Internet store and Blow them away.

For reliable Games and service please go to any of the places.

<a href="http://www.cart-mart.com" target="_blank">Videogamesdepot</a>

<a href="http://www.liksang.com" target="_blank">Lik-Sang</a>

<a href="http://www.ncsx.com" target="_blank">National Console Support</a>

Any of these places or Ebay seller DIGIMALL are the places to go.If you need any game DIGIMALL gets it cheap.Email him for Super Street Fighter 2 X Sealed for 55

Wow, even Japhei has been burned by buywrong. It shows how bad they are.

 

[Earthquake]

A few years ago when the NGPC was still somewhat strong, I ordered a Nyko light/battery adapter from them. They even had a pic of it on the product info page. Then it arrived and it turned out to be some cheap Worm Light rip-off made by some no name company called Madcow. Needless to say, that was $30 bucks that went down the drain.

 

[snkneogeousaCTH]

What an idiotic company. This should stay on top so all the n00bs know to stay clear.

Hell yeah they ship like shit. I pre-ordered Ikaruga and KoF2000 from their website. I sent them a money order for the two games months before there release. They held KoF for a month and a half till Ikaruga was released. For nearly two months I was sending them emails, none of which were answered. FINALLY in desperation I tracked down there store phone number and called them. Only after that did I get my games.

If you buy from Buyrite your buying wrong.

 

[jefmcc]

I have been fuched by them as well.

Stay clear.

 

[shir0]

I must be one lucky guy then,
been dealing with them for awhile, no
problems at all. I got all my ngpc and
import dc stuff from them.

Later
