<snip>Avoid TigerDirect at all costs: http://www.resellerratings.com/seller1983.htmlNote their well below average rating, as well as the multitude of negative feedback. I recently purchased from them, against my better judgement, and: 1) I was on hold for 50 minutes trying to take to a sales rep 2) That sales rep hung up on me after giving me the wrong tracking number for my shipment 3) I emailed them *12* days ago asking for the correct tracking number, and have yet to get a reply. Some people seem to have had good luck, but i think its just that, luck. This company has a very poor track record that they seem to think they can fix by having cust. service managers call disgruntled customers after the damage has been done.
The problem with using a site like resellerratings.com is that you only get ratings by people who care to fill out a survey, to quote them, "A company's ratings are solely based upon customers' answers to our survey questions."
Personally, I'm *much* more likely to fill out a survey if I have a bad experience than I am if the experience was good, if I bother to fill out a survey at all (I *hate* surveys). And I believe that can be said about people in general. My boss has bought several things from Tiger and they've always been helpful and the merchandise was received promptly. I doubt, however, that experience is included in their rating on resellerratings.com, since he is unlikely to bother with filling out a survey.
I don't doubt you've had problems, I'm just doubting the validity of the rating site you reference.
