Agreed.
I recently bought a substantial amount of their "Komputerbay" ram modules. It looked like a bargain - Most of Komputerbay brand was $20 off of the best price I'd seen elsewhere, and it was supposedly high quality product according to all their information.
The Komputerbay RAM sticks arrived in plain boxing (no static protection) with nothing more than a black & white copied 'label' sticker (the type that comes off a standard thermal printer that Fedex uses) stuck on crookedly over the top of the case.
I didn't think too much of it until I opened the package to find that the RAM is cheap Chinese knockoff memory chips mounted on generic PCBs. There is nothing quality about it. Apparently Komputerbay is just sticking their labels on somebody else's crap quality RAM.
It gets worse. 3 of the 4 cards I bought for my MacBook Pro and iMac all failed within 30 minutes. I didn't bother leaving the fourth in - - I would rather not have to buy a $1200 logic board because some crap ram burned it up.
It still gets worse. Komputerbay customer service is terrible. They obviously speak NO English as they couldn't write a complete sentence at all, and they have offered no help. They don't include a phone number, so you can't get help other than writing an email and hoping someone answers it. [Although after reading the emails (written in jibberish), i'm not sure speaking to them on the phone would be of any use] They also don't answer email promptly, so what should be taken care of in a few minutes is now stretched over days.
My only consolation was to have purchased over Amazon, so I'll let them take care of it. I called Amazon and they've sent a box to pick it up.
So... let's see. Save $30 off of the price of decent RAM, but risk wasting HOURS of your life dealing with a bunch of scam artists? you decide.
