Hi All,

Started buying from Aria after Dabs sent me a UPS with nothing else
like disks cables etc at all in the box and then argued for one month
that I should tell them what I was missing and they would get the
manufacturer to send them to me, kept stalling and refusing to give
me a returns number, had a dodgy copied disk through the post with no
notes, and a random cable in a jiffy bag, again with no cover note.
Couldn't seem to get them to understand that as their was no contents
list in the packing how the hell was I supposed to tell them what was
missing!

I will never, ever, ever buy from Dabs again, have spent several
thousand pounds elsewhere since, and since looking elsewhere, find
that even Amazon generally stuff them on price.

Aria have been really good, no where near the range, but on what they
do have they seem well clued up. Phoned up and got trade for anything
over 250 pounds in an order, well impressed, have used them several
times now. Watch the delivery costs though, ordering single lost cost
items would not be clever.

PS. did I say DON'T USE DABS! just checking.
