Title: ASB Computer Shop
Post by: ferrellsl on October 04, 2012, 04:40:02 PM: I've come across ASB Computers and they seem to carry some rare items not available at other stores such as Amigakit. I've never heard of them before. Are they reputable?

Here's their site: http://shop.asb-computer.com/

Thanks. I was somewhat suspicious because I couldn't find any contact info or site reviews.

Post by: rvo_nl on October 04, 2012, 09:48:56 PM: Ordered from them. Took ages. Turned out they didnt have the item in stock. But they were very friendly and had another company (probably Amigakit) send me the goods anyway. They used to have BlizzardPPC's listed on their site, but ofcourse they are not available. In the end I would say they can be trusted, but they are not Amigakit.

Same here, flashed up as "A reported attack site". Don't know who would report it as such... maybe rival Amiga Shops! :roflmao:

Seems to be safe though, I went to the site regardless and didn't knowingly get attacked.

http://shop.asb-computer.com/

does not work for me.

Edit - OK, now it does.

Man! They've got some items I haven't seen in awhile!
Do the listings really indicate that they've really got these items for sale?

And the answer is no.
They've got a lot of items listed that they don't have in stock.
