Review of Overclockers UK

I've used them a few times now.

I've used them a few times now.

It's mostly been good. My Noble chair is still comfortable after a couple years (my wife recently said it's more comfortable than our recliner sofa's that are only a year old) and I'll definitely buy another one when this one is more worn. The only issue I've had with it is the left armrest went loose recently, and after tightening it back up, the padding on top has warped. I wish I could buy new parts for it as it would be a waste to throw it out for that.

I ordered a cleaning kit for it the other week and arrived quickly and worked really, really well.

The downside has been this week when I ordered 3x AOC 24" 144hz monitors. I ordered on Monday evening on next day, expecting them to arrive on Wednesday ahead of a project I wanted to start and complete this weekend. When I ordered it stated 9 in stock, however when they didn't arrive, I enquired expecting perhaps a delay due to COVID, however I was told by email that they'd been shipped out on other orders, which left me feeling a bit second-class if I'm honest, especially if that stock count was accurate and there were 9 available when I ordered. The other issue is that if I hadn't been in a hurry to get them, I'd had no correspondence to tell me that they couldn't fulfil the order on time and it was only when I enquired would I find out.

To their credit, and as I really wanted the monitors this week so I didn't have a tonne of other boxes laying about beyond this week ahead of my project this weekend, when I got through on the phone they instantly refunded and apologised, so I've managed to order them from elsewhere for next day delivery - a bit more expensive, but I had my heart set on those monitors.
