DO NOT BUY FROM THESE GUYS

First of all, i looked around for reviews but not well enough.
The positive ones on websites come from americans all wanting to buy or claiming to have bought several machines from them (odd to buy a pc 500 pounds if you can get it for 300 dollars.)
On ebay they are very well noted, however if you look closely: only SELLERS leave positive remarks, BUYERS leave NEGATIVE or NEUTRAL.

This being said: my experience:
Got the WRONG laptop, badly packed (stands broke off etcetera), not fully working, clearly NOT tested (backlight not working, leds not working, cdrom not working etc. any one of these faults are evident as soon as you turn the thing on so obviously no'one with them turned it on or they deliberately choose to ship me a halfbroken thing)
They sold me a laptopt with a windows version it was never made for and withouth any licence (the licence is just torn off, glue still sticking on its place)

Their only solution so far concisted of advising me ebay to get parts (that should have been working in the first place) and lots of emails without anythin concrete, still waiting to get a Windows licence for example...)

Have my attorney and creditcard company on them now :(
