Name: adosystems.net
Address: EN

Placed an order early October, order didn't arrive at my door until THREE WEEKS to the day after they received my payment.

NEVER able to get them on the phone, all calls are automatically forwarded to a voice mail system, in the three weeks I only spoke to a real person once, and that was when I was making payment arrangements.

After 3 messages left on the voice mail and 5 emails, I was finally contacted with a tracking number. However the tracking number was BOGUS! I emailed them again 5 days later, after learning the tracking number was bad, and demanded either verifiable proof that a package was on the way or an immediate refund. I received an email back with a valid tracking number this time and the package arrived airmail 2 days later. Bear in mind that the package wasn't even shipped until this time, which was 2 days shy of them having my payment for 3 weeks, so in reality it took almost 3 weeks for them to ship!

Obviously from the other reviews people have had similar problems, however I was lucky enough to receive what I ordered. NO explanation was given why this order took 3 weeks to arrive.

In all fairness I received exactly what I ordered in excellent condition, and aside from the wait time the price was outstanding. I suppose the wait was worth it to save over $40-$50, HOWEVER I honestly believed I had been ripped off and wasn't going to receive anything, considering they didn't return my calls or emails and they gave me no updates on the status of the order. From everything I've read here and my own experience with ADOSYSTEMS, I'm very confused what their deal is.

*NOTE the shipping@adosystems.net address seemed to get me a response, while the sales@adosystems.net didn't.*

Item: AS-9800XTADO - Asus Radeon 9800XT 256MB VIVO/DVI AGP Video Card
Quantity: 1
I ordered the above video card and NEVER recieved it. I paid $400.00 for it in cashier's check and with later investigations I realized their online credit card processor doesn't work and they ask you for cashier's check and once you send it to them it is the end of the story. My money is gone and I never recieved any refund of any sort.

Sata hard drive was ordered on 5/16 and amex card immediately charged $177. notified by email on 5/19 that due to processing problems ADOsystems would be unable to deliver product and that my credit card would be credited with full amount. i emailed adosystem on june 9 and informed them that credit card had yet to receive credit for $177.Recieved email from them on june 14 stating that there were "PROCESSOR" problems. On june 29 i emailed them again demanding refund. Received email on june 29 from Adosystems stating they had mailed me a full refund that day.On July 11 i emailed Adosystem yet again informing them that i had yet to receive any refund or credit. On july 12 i ereceived email from Salesperson requesting i contact their office by phone
repeated attempts to get through to their number have been unsucessful.

On 7/25 i filed a complaint with the Newyork BBB ( something i would recommend all who have had dealings with this company do post haste and emailed Adosystems a copy of the complaint ( as of this writting they have several submitted in last six months) I received an Email from them this am that simply asked if the item had not been delivered to me , I responded that i was not going to play games with them was well aware of their rating at this website and bbb
complaints . the response was that they were going to contact American Express if by today there was no credit issued or anything pending they would mail me out a full refund for 177 overnite.

We shall see

Edited 11/12/04 - Well not only have i yet to see either a refund or product but now this person has the nerve to post a reply on my review.

edited 12/01/04
received email from newyork bbs which stated that ADOsystems claimed to have refunded $177 on 6/15.

i immediately informed bbs that case was not resolved and that i had NOT received any refund.
also forward bbs email to Adosystem and let them know case was not resolved ...the response via email was that they had tried to issue a refund electronically but that apparently it was not going through...

... but wait did he not tell the bbs i had been paid my refund on 6/15/04.

I ordered an Maxtor Hard drive on 5/17 and recieved order confirmation via email. On 5/20 I recieved email from ADOSYSTEM saying "DEAR
CUSTOMER DUE TO A DELAY IN CHANGE OF PROCESSORS AND A DELAY IN SHIPMENT OF ITEM WE ARE REFUNDING BACK YOUR CREDIT CARD . UNTIL WE CAN FIX THIS PROCESSING ISSUE WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO EXCEPT ANYMORE CREDIT CARD ORDERS. WE HAVE TRIED TO FIX THIS PROCESSING ISSUE BUT ITS BEEN IN A HEAVY DELAY THAT WE CAN NO LONGER OPERATE WITH CC ORDERS AND PROMISE OUR CUSTOMERS TIMELY DELIVERY. BELOW IS YOUR RECEIPT OF REFUND BACK TO YOUR CREDIT CARD. WE DO APOLOGIZE FOR THE INCONVIENCE BUT THE PROCESSING BANK HAD MADE IT DIFFICULT FOR US TO OPERATE AT OUR NORMAL POTENTIAL. "

On 5/24 I was charged for the said tranaction. I made mutiple calls from 9am-10am EST to ADOSYSTEMS ONLY 866 number and only get an answering machine.

I also noticed other customers on BizRate who have had similar problem and there are complaints with BBB.

UPDATE 5/26: Finally got through on 866 number and spoke with Oliver. He told me that it will take 4-5 business days to get refund and it was a problem with the processing bank who was delaying the funds transfer with ADOSYSTEMS.

I will update this review in a few more days and hopefully with a credit back to my account. Until then BUYER BEWARE!

6/9 NEVER GOT MY REFUND FOR ORDER THEY CANCELLED AFTER CHARGING ME! SCAM! I HAVE CONTACTED BBB AND CREDIT CARD COMPANY TO TAKE ACTION. NO EXCUSES!

I purchased an xp3200box processor.ADOSYSTEMS price was the lowest.I had to send a money order because there credit card system was down.They gave me a 13% discount and free overnight shipping for sending the money order.This merchant is great except the phones were out of order which is very bad for business.My processor didn't work so I had to call AMD to get it replaced.Except for the phone problem I had no problem.ADOSYSTEM kept there promise.I will buy from this merchant again if they get there phones back workig and have someone to answer the phones without saying this voice mail box is full.HAPPY WITH ADOSYSTEM BUT NOT WITH THE BAD XP3200 PROCESSOR THAT DAMAGED MY 17" CRT MONITOR AND MOTHERBOARD. THANKS FOR KEEPING YOUR PROMISE ADOSYSTEM AND THE LOW PRICES.

I have ordered 2 200 GB SATA WD HDDs from adosystems. They shipped out a 200 GB and a 75 GB HDD I have tried communicating via e-mail numerous times, as their phones are coming up saying "This number has been disconnected". They have not contacted me back as of yet. It has been almost a week with no response from their sales department in regards to my order. I am extremely disgusted with this company. They also mentioned sending me some free software as a gift for their mixup and I haven't received that free software either. This company has given me a foul taste in my mouth. I won't ever shop from them again unless they correct any mistakes they have made.

I ordered an Abit motherboard and a P4 processor from AdoSystems cause they had the lowest prices on pricewatch, and they never send me the items. When i asked about it, they gave me a bogus ups tracking number that that never received the item from the shipper. They never answer calls unless it was to pay them. And once they pretended to have shipped the items, they never answered anything. no emails, no phone calls. Do not buy from them ever.

They responded after a BBB compaling and supposedly sent out a refund. That was a month ago, yet i have not seen a check in the mail nor any other type of refund. Unless they can prove that i cashed the check, which i know they can't i will not change my ratings. I have called about the missing check with no response they have the balls the blame me for not changing my reveiw.

Ordered a AMD 3200 on 10-03-04, still have not received order, asked for refund on 11-24-04, still have not received a refund. This place is a rip off. I am now sending a fraud complaint to the FBI http://www1.ifccfbi.gov/index.asp to the New York State Attorney General http://www.oag.state.ny.us/online_forms/complaint_alert.jsp and to the Better Business Bureau in New York State. Do a search on internet fraud and you will come up with plenty of places to send in complaints. If nothing else maybe we can shut this guy down and put him in jail for awhile.

I have called the company 3 times, leaving two messages, one marked as urgent, and have yet to recieve my products. A motherboard and a processor. I sent a check as the "creditcard processor" was down to being upgraded. In an email, I was promised overnight shipping for free. Its been almost a month now. This is not good business.

Ordered a motherboard on 12/01 recieved email on 12/03 that there credit card gateway was down. If I would like to take additional 13% off the item and free overnight shipping I could mail out a usps money order. They gave me no address to send it to so I tried calling them..hehe answer service no response finally emailed the heck out of them and they gave me a address. On
12/07/04 I sent them the money order overnight. they recieved it on 12/08. I waited for confirmation in email. On 12/09 I got thru to a rep who said it would go out that afternoon and I would recieve confirmation in email that night. I DIDN'T. 12/10 I GOT EMAIL SAYING THEY WERE WORKING ON THIER PHONE LINES TO BETTER THIER SERVICE AND IN THAT EMAIL IT SHOWED MY 1ST INTIAL ORDER THAT IT WOULD GET SHIPPED GROUND. I emailed them on this issue, and thier response to me was that I would be receiving overnight delievery and Saturday special delievery. I DIDN'T. ON 12/11 I sent email stating: shouldn't I be recieving confirmation if and when it would be arriving? Figuring they would get it 1st thing 12/13. 12/13 no response. I time and time again emailed them ( all the contacting you can do)I saw numbers and told them my full story time and time again. I contacted the better business burea of NY, filed a complaint, and was also directed to attorney generals office there and got suite filed on it. I emailed them after that on this issue and they responded finally that it would be shipped that day overnight. Nothing has happened. All I wanted was the offer they gave me, I went out of my way mailing them a check overnight, for it to just set there. My last email stated: You have till tonight, to send me a confirmation of my item that it is being overnighted are I will cancel my order, get another mother board from another dealer ( which I JUST got done ordering 5 minutes ago & am going to send them that confirmation in email) SORRY back: just checked my email thier deadline is up. and no confirmation. Now they have 3 days to return my money or I go on with the proccess of legal suite.That deadline will be up 12/16/04.In regards to all who see this never trust cheaper dealers, and if anyone has noticed even pricegrabber has dropped adosystems. I'll definately be back to tell you the rest of this one. Should be fun, and I'm up for the challenge, no matter the cost.

UPDATE: My money was returned to me via usps on 12/21/04. Thank you for cooperating to me in this matter.

I wanted to uodate my last review and advise all that I was able to make contact with Adosystems (Eric who was very helpful)and they did locate my package and overnight it to me. The order was placed on 12/2/04and i repceved my package on 12/16/04. While it was a rocky road in the end i did receive my video card.
They definetly have the lowest prices so if have pateince it is worth the wait.

Order was shipped same day and was recieved 4 days later as I ordered right before the weekend. Subwoofer was rattling and I was quickly given the information on how to RMA but eventually decided to keep the subwoofer because the rattling was nonexistent when turned over. Service was great.

Almost two month later, and I still haven't got my money back. These guys scammed me out of $600, then when I left a negative rating for them, to my surprise they actually contacted me offering a refund. This was two weeks ago - they claim they refunded the money via electronic transfer, even emailed me a forged receipt for the transaction - money's still not in my account. I refuse to believe a bank transfer takes 2 weeks. They've now stopped responding to my emails - YET AGAIN.

I'm amazed by the sudden influx of happy customers here - these guys are either blatantly incompetent, or blatant scammers. It wouldn't surprise me at all to learn that all the positives are faked - after all, the only people who have even posted more than one resellerratings review are the ones posting NEGATIVE ones. Avoid these guys at all costs - nothing but lying scammers.

First I received a message back from the vendor that the order had been processed and was pending shipment; next thing I know I get this:
"Due to our recent change in Credit Card Processor our system for purchasing
with Credit Cards Is Currently.Down. We have inegrated in a new processor
for this but will be a few days before this can be finalized. You still have other methods of paying for your order Via E check or Mail
order method. In which any affect we will issue you next Day shipping free
of no charge."
Naturally, I cancelled the order.

i made an order and more than a month later, i am still waiting. They apologized for that, but sitll, i have no product yet, and their apologies wont bring it to me.

The order was made 10/8/2004 and today is 11/17/2004 and i have only get the same mails as the other customers on this site, I have sent a lot of mails to all their addresses, and i have just received the auto response from two of them, that they will contact me soon. I am now going to place a complaint with BBB. They are just liars, and are taking all the money from people.

DO NOT BUY FROM THEM, THEY ARE JUST FRAUD.

I had ordered 2 WD SATA 200 GB hard drives and the order was not processed for about 3 weeks. After the 3 week time, I was sent 1 of the 2 hard drives. Now, it is 1 month and 5 days since my order was taken/paid for, and I am still waiting for my second drive. I hope this is not business as usual.

WORST PLACE I HAVE EVER DEALT WITH
NEVER EVER ORDER FROM THEM

I placed an order two Sundays ago for a motherboard I needed that said was in stock according to the website. I needed it in by last Friday, and since I live around 10 minutes from the guy I figured no problem. Charged my CC on the 28th

I call last Monday. and get voicemail and leave a message. No call back. So I call around 15 times and always get voicemail.
Last Tuesday. Leave a message in the AM get no call back. Call about 15 times during the day. FINALLY around 4 PM. I get a guy. He said item should ship today and I should get a tracking number via email. Checked email that night and didn't get one

Call Weds about 15 times- Voicemail over and over
Call Thurs about 15 times - Voicemail over and over. Leave message and send him an email. STILL NO CONTACT
Call Friday about 15 times- Voicemail over and over

Its now Tuesday and I left yet another message. I am calling my credit card company tonight if I dont hear from this clown and have the charge reversed.

How's "I've been patient enough to wait for about 3 months for an ATI AIW9600XT graphics card" sound for "comment"? Don't get me wrong, I've been calling and voicing my concerns not to mention emailing his "lifeless" systems. I've already filed against him and his company with BBB. Really!!! How can anyone like him claim to be in business with such horrible service? Heck, I or anyone at that, could make an order right now on his website. I thank God for those of you who didn't get sucked in by what can be seen as lies now to me; and for those of us who have been taken advantage of, "cheap seekers" or whatever, I encourage you to band together to put him out of business because his actions show clearly he doesn't belong there. You'd think people, especially those in business, would get better with time; it's obvious this company and the guy running it only got worse. Write me at edivine2k4-ids4j@yahoo.com for any ideas how we can save other people the trouble of doing business with this guy - I seemingly have lost any ounce of remaining respect I have for Mr. Oliver as he's spoken lies to me very similar to ones already mentioned here. (Add this to your list of lies: some merchant was late in shipping my order to him or something like that. Or maybe it's here but I've not come across it.) K! Before I write some book no one needs to read, I'll end this "comment" here. I hope y'all have a wonderful new year no thanks to Mr. Oliver Dilan. Peace!

May 24, 2005: A little over four weeks ago in April, I got mail that had a money order for my refund from ADOSystems. I can just imagine the amount of headache I would have put myself through because BBB already mailed me weeks in advance that they had reached an agreement to refund my money. Anyway, I am thankful even though all I wanted was the graphics card I payed for. I'm hopeful that he will also get his act together - fast - and send out the other refunds to those who took action, no matter how little, as I did. Stay cool y'all. Peace!
