123 Buy Direct

My experience with 123BuyDirect was a bumpy ride with a happy ending, so this is a mixed review. Despite several negative (mostly bait and switch type) reviews posted on websites, I selected them because 1) they offered a great price on a Sony ...

I ordered a Plasma HDTV from these folks. The one I ordered was "in-stock" according to the "ProjectorExport.com" web page that I ordered it from. HOWEVER, "in stock" does not mean they actually have an item in-hand. IT means they THINK they can get ...

Most of the reviews for 123 Buy Direct (aka PCVideoOnline, CompDirect, Barnett's Computer Warehouse) within the past 6 months site misleading website ads, poor communication, bait & switch, slow processing & long shipping times - they're mostly right, ...

I bought a plasma TV from these guys. They called me the day after to "clarify" some of the finer points on their web site...warranties on their web site are only applicable if bought through their storefront...and therefore much more expensive--typical ...

I found the direct buy experience a lot like buying a timeshare....You dont get what they promise,,the 30 day trial is limited to $1,000,and you dont even get the free trial when they close you on the nearly $7,000 plus membership fees,..You either sign ...

On my initial call, I inquired about an LCD TV. At that time, I was told that if I purchased a set that day, they would upgrade the shipping to 7-9 days and throw in an HDMI cable at no extra cost; I purchased a Toshiba Regza, 42"Shortly after I ...

I can't express my dissatisfaction enough. After much research, I decided upon a 46" Sony Bravia XBR5 LCD set. 123 BuyDirect had the set for about $50 less than everyone else - so my nightmare began. I was initially impressed, because less than 5 ...

NEED A TV, YOU'RE BETTER GOING DOWN TO YOUR LOCAL 'MART' STORE THAN DEALING WITH 123BUYDIRECT. THE ONLY DIRECT THING YOU'LL GET IS A HEADACHE. THE PHONE REPRESENATIVES ARE INPOLITE, INCONSIDERATE, VERY UNPROFESSIONAL AND CARELESS. WE PURCHASED A 46" ...

I had a horrible experience with 123 Buy Direct. It's been a nightmare trying to cancel an order on for a 50 inch Panasonic TV. The first salesman I talked with said the delivery would take 27-30 days. I tried to cancel the order at that time and he said ...

As I watch this company post fake review after fake review, all with glowing praise, I can only say this to them (I know they obviously keep track of these reviews so that they can counter balance all the bad ones with fake good ones): Gentlemen, you can ...

COMPLETE SCAM! Purchased a Sony 52xbr4 in early June 2008 received call from salesman a day later from 123Buydirect trying to sell me the Sony 52W4100 (Lower model) for $100 more saying that this was the newest and best 52" LCD that Sony offers now. They ...

I'm not sure where all these other 5 star folks are coming from and how they get their orders within a few days and a confirmation email within a few minutes but none of that has happened with my order so far and its been 10 days. I ordered a Sony ...

Terrible customer service and deceptive sales practices - be very wary of doing business with this company. I was victim of the same bait and switch that other users are describing -- I was told (after a few days thinking my order was fine) that my TV ...

DON'T DO IT...BEWARE....all negative feedback is absolutely true! All positive feedback is fake! Read some of the positive feedback, who writes that? Check with the BBB Online. Copy and paste this link... ...

To give you some background I frequent these types of sites but I never write posts. But on this one I feel obligated to save others the stress of dealing with these con-artists. Like many others on here I got the email saying that they needed me to ...
