Should you buy B-Grade components from Overclockers?

Should I? Why are you asking?

Simply put, they're mostly returns. Unwanted items or repaired items that people no longer want. They're in full working condition.

I've never had a problem with b-grade stuff, although I only bought my PSU....works great, was cheap, and I doubt anything was missing.

I have some B-grade AE Aego M's from OCUK, there fine except some of the cables were dirty and the instructions were all screwed up.

My brothers motherboard I bought him was B-grade.

Was working fine, Only missing cables and manual.

Hello.

I set up a RMA for an CPU cooler and they are sending me a b-grade replacement. There are plenty of new ones in stock too. Is this normal?

Thanks.

Bought loads of b-grade stuff, only time something went faulty was the re-conditioned WD 3200KS which I RMAed and now in perfect working order.

Actually companies do send repaired or Bgrade goods as RMA replacements, especially on older equipment. After all the item you sent was used, and they they are sending you something in working order.

Ok thanks for the replies. I will check it out when it arrives and if it isn't up to scratch I will get in touch with. I might send them a webnote as well.

Cheers.
