Has anyone every ordered from spartan technologies? I have been a customer for 10+ years. But they really dropped the ball. That last P3 processor I ordered was bad. They gave me a RMA and I mailed it back, but they have ignored all queries about the status of the order. Furthermore I think they blocked by email address! I don't think they have any attention of replacing it!

Holy crap, man! I didn't realize they were still around. I think I ordered some PC100 RAM from them back in 1998. So, sorry, I guess I don't have anything worthwhile to add. 😉

I get the impression they changed hands a few years back. Now most of the stuff they sell seems to be "pulls"

The reviews are old, but it seems like they aren't very trustworthy anymore: http://www.resellerratings.com/store/Spartan_Technologies

If they're mostly selling "pulls" and old tech then I wonder why they haven't just migrated to eBay. I guess they can get away with scamming people if they remain their own operation.

Well I owe then an apology. I finally called them, and they had already sent a replacement. I got it today and it works like a champ. 😁
