I have been in the I.T Field for 10 years some of which i spent in government,
I have never experience problems like this and i have dealt with Umart, PC case gear,
even MSY, all other Australian providers all of which have followed consumer rights. However i spent over $5000 in multiple systems with Centrecom,

First of all upon inspecting all products i found indications of over 60% of products sent refurbished.

Second the 3090 i ordered was running poorly since i got it in terms of performance, however when running another normal game it produced FPS lag due to temp,
even though the system it was in is worth over $10k with extremely efficient cooling. upon the fps lag the display went black and the fan rpm was stuck at 99%
rpm. at this point the card melted and was no longer functional.

Third the motherboard i had issues with the second it arrived x299 was one of the products that looked refurbished upon installing it correctly i noticed a few
issues which led to multiple sparks and fires. at this point i gave centrecom the benefit of the doubt thinking it was just a simple mistake. I sent back the
product they sent it back with no evidence that they even touched it let alone fixed it. I resume installing it into another simple system to test with working
products it did the same thing if not worse due to the problems it had before. At this point the products from centrecom has damage and/or affected all other
products it was linked to.

Fourth is the most absurd scam attempt ive ever witnessed in this field. I claimed warranty and refund for those faulty parts above specifiying the exact
order numbers and the exact specific information in order of what to refund and what to replace i requested for those faulty parts which caught on fire and
what ever its linked to for refund, then i requested the 3090 to be replaced ande sent back a "new" one at this point someone from centrecom staff team
executed a refund for the 3090 by itsself.. mind you the 3090's have gone up in price since i purchased it at $2k They literally tried to scam me against
my will they tried to refund the 3090 which i advised against. they ignored my instructions and tried to benefit themselves.

Please what ever you do take my story into consideration and shop elsewhere do not let their free shipping fool you its not worth it.

    I wouldn't say they are worse or better than any other computer stores. Generally computer stores have a bizarre infatuation of denying customer service despite employee time being wasted over something quite immaterial, so it is normal to expect Centrecom would do those things.

    Mate, sounds like you had a bad run with the system. On top of that, the component shortages at present are allowing opportunities for retailers like centrecom to either shaft you by providing a refund and making you pay again for higher amount or using second hand components. Both can be true in this regard. The best way it should of been handled is to simply take photos / videos of the issue as soon as it occurred then going down to centrecom with the system for them to test.
    Pre built systems unfortunately don't arrive with original boxes so there's no telling if the components are brand new.
    Keep fighting until centecom fix the issue.

  • malich on 26/03/2021 - 09:52

    Our office has been around the corner from a centrecom branch for the last 4 years. As such, we buy nearly all our IT equipment from them.

    I've never had an issue with them.

    Their customer service is typical of the industry - they all have a don't give a fk attitutude. But I've never had issues when making warranty claims.

    So … you returned a board because it had multiple sparks and fires, and when you got the board back in a state which you determined had been untouched and unfixed, you decided, in all your IT wisdom and experience, that it would be a good idea to use it again in another system?

    And you seem surprised it did the same thing as before?

    It's people like you that give retailers a bad name!

    A normal game would not even trigger the fan of 3090 a lot. For example CS:Go, the fan of 3090 would not even start. The only condition I can think of that will use 100% performance of the card would be bitcoin mining.

    • FireRunner on 26/03/2021 - 15:35

      CS:GO isn’t particularly demanding on the GPU. Recent AAA titles can definitely max out a 3090 at high refresh rates and/or resolutions

      The only condition I can think of that will use 100% performance of the card would be bitcoin mining.

      Why do people keep sprouting this obvious nonsense. Mining is all about efficiency, most cards used for mining are run in extremely cool environments with huge amounts of airflow, underclocked by a good 30 - 40% on their core clocks and running at as low as 50% of their TDP.

  • psdillon on 26/03/2021 - 13:16

    OP could be truthful and just unlucky.

    It's fair enough for people to say that they've had good experiences with Centrecom, but it's kinda nasty to blame it all on OP based on probability or the way his post is worded, rather than evidence.

      2) Had to return a product (completely sealed & unopened) and the guy opened it to inspect and then had the audacity to go 'sorry we can't refund you as it was opened' (???)

    Its not just centrecom. bought my EVGA 3080 from scorptec. Brought it in for RMA. The guy at the desk said it might not be possible to replace because EVGA isnt in Australia, well EVGA is pretty (profanity) famous for their global warranty so I tell him to check. A week later, without any option or permission, they take my card and give me STORE CREDIT for the 3080. They don't put me on a short list to get a new card, they don't fix it, they dont mail it off to EVGA, they take it, claim that the card cannot be replaced and give me store credit. (profanity) joke of a business.

      not sure why you had a neg but it seems people on this forum dont care for you to tell the truth.

      • Blitzfx on 27/03/2021 - 17:55

        Yep. If I was struggling like Scorptec because of Covid, why wouldn't I ripoff a customer. They have no alternative and no other vendor to go to with stock.

        I'd legally fulfill my obligations to the customer as per the law, and also make a profit by selling the next batch of cards to a new customer at increased markup.

        Surprisingly, lying to OP about replacements isn't illegal lol

  • lltravel on 26/03/2021 - 20:21

    I like how everyone is trying to blame the op

    10 years is somewhat a long time. It's not exactly rocket science to put together a pc.
    Also the op mentioned that some of the time he spent in the government, not all.

    • Almost impossible to plug in the graphics card incorrectly. If it's plugged into the wrong port on the PSU it simply won't work. Not enough power etc
    • It's already been proven that mining BTC or any other coin isn't going to "degrade" your card. In fact a used 3080 vs a new 3080 will do the same thing. The cooling on these cards is pretty amazing. How do i Know? I have been mining since I got my card and not a single issue yet.

    Given the shortages of cards etc, I wouldn't be surprised if the company did give him refurbished crap.

    Things just dont catch fire unless theres an actual issue on the PCB or a short. Plugging stuff in incorrectly isn't going to cause sparks. You cant plug a 20 pin into the 10 pin etc.
    Overclocking beyond the cards means it simply wont turn on or crash, not catch fire.

    Given the current demand most companies wont care as they can simply pass it onto the next customer

    Goodluck op, i dont think you did anything wrong. Ignore the people here, you've warned them and when something bad happens they will know.

    If 'new'products showed signs of wear and tear someone with IT experience should have been able to quickly pick this up and send said items back

    Then to allegedly get the same now fire damaged components back and try again to use them in the build is again something anyone with any general computer knowledge would know not to do

    As for not giving OP a new 3090 card a quick look online at Centrecom shows zero stock of 3090 cards so how exactly do they send a replacement when they don't even have anything available ?

    Refunds rather than replacements for new graphics cards is a global trend at the moment due the the shortages being experienced and long wait lists for replacement cards for those who decide to wait

    • Blitzfx on 27/03/2021 - 18:03

      If 'new'products showed signs of wear and tear someone with IT experience should have been able to quickly pick this up and send said items back

      A lot of people and businesses don't meticulously inspect parts as they come through the door for such things unless it was super obvious. In the event of the failure OP experienced, they have reason now to retroactively inspect the part to see if it was a refurb, AFTER it failed.

      Worse, if the department doesn't even have facility or employees or time to perform this, with large volume of deliveries.

      • AJ73 on 27/03/2021 - 18:05
        +1

        OP clearly states they inspected all products….

        • Blitzfx on 27/03/2021 - 18:12

          For IT parts in particular (there are many other parts I've worked with over the years) I can assure you inspecting it = using your eyeballs.

          As an example PSU failure is impossible to pickup without plugging it in. And even if you plugged it in, you'd need to stress test that PSU and maintain power load so it didn't blow up.

          Motherboards are impossible because the components are 1-2mm.

          I can go on and on for different components, and it's entirely possible OP might have just used something simple like if the box wrapping / sticker / manufacturing dates are consistent.

          This is the only concession I can give, short of OP being a liar and troll

          • AJ73 on 27/03/2021 - 18:28

            @Blitzfx: Hmmmm….Just had a look at Centrecom, there isn't an x299 motherboard to be found on their site, not even sold out stock (there's plenty of sold out graphics cards still listed so they aren't hiding unavailable items)

    That's not just Centrecom, that's almost global. Computer retailers will out right just refund people on high-end video cards instead of RTM/and order a replacement, because there is NO replacement and they could be out of stock for 12 months or more.

    All of my recent interactions with Centre Com (including warranty claims) have been outstanding.

    I ordered dozens of HP Z1 G5s last year for work when Centre Com were practically giving them away for $2,000 ex. GST, which was an absolute steal for a high-spec enterprise workstation (i7 9700K, 32GB RAM, 512GB SSD/1TB HDD and an RTX 2080) with a 3-year, on-site warranty and possibly the best pricing I've ever seen on HP Z-Series workstations to date in terms performance-per-dollar.

    I had a warranty issue with one of them (DOA GPU) and they sent out a new card within days. Had some other minor issues with the warranty start dates showing as commencing a few months before we purchased them on HP's website and they sorted that out quickly too.

    No complaints here.

    I just ordered a custom pc build through centrecom, all AMD build, just paid on Friday so waiting for them to build it. The only thing I don’t like is that you can’t talk to your actual system builder (guy/girl that will be building it) so I had to send in a couple of tickets just to outline how I wanted it built. I felt kinda stupid sending the tickets with my ideas but as I couldn't physically speak to my system builder like ai could with Scorptec a few years ago I wasn’t sure how competent centre com system builders are.

    I’ve heard good things about centre com custom builds and judging by images on their website their ready to ship PC’s look quite good so I took a chance and dumped 5k into a custom gaming rig with them so I hope it all turns out ok.

    Iif anyone has had a custom rig built through them let me know how it went?

    • Blitzfx on 27/03/2021 - 18:06

      One good indicator you can check is if the cables are routed neatly, and out of the way. That's a pretty good litmus check. For $5k, I expect perfect PC assembly.

      • CheetoJesus on 27/03/2021 - 18:11

        Yeh, I heard their cable management was quite good, I ordered an extension sleeve pack as well, I built my last pc so I’m sure their cable management is better than mine :). I had scorptec do my pc for me before that and they were ok as well. I figure there’s only few ways a pc can be put together so should be ok.

        • Blitzfx on 27/03/2021 - 18:17

          Oh I just remembered, the liquid cooling might also be worth watching out for (among other things) . not sure if you got one in yours. There's a good and bad way to assemble it.

              @CheetoJesus: When I asked them if they allow build notes, they told me they don't.

              • CheetoJesus on 28/03/2021 - 12:02

                @czd: Yeh they said to me to send an email so I did, just I couldn’t physically speak to the builder over the phone. Did you have yours built through them?

                • czd on 28/03/2021 - 15:52

                  @CheetoJesus: I haven't got one built yet, I'll currently trying to decide who the best people to go with (PCCG, Scorptec, Mwave, Centrecom).

                  When I messaged Centrecom, they said they don't accept any build notes full stop. So that's weird. Maybe I just got the guy who had no idea :D

    …then i requested the 3090 to be replaced ande sent back a "new" one at this point someone from centrecom staff team
    executed a refund for the 3090 by itsself…

    You are entitled to either a replacement or refund, and they've got the right to choose to refund you, even if you request for a replacement.

    “ First of all upon inspecting all products i found indications of over 60% of products sent refurbished”

    I’d love to know how you got to that % so accurately? You sure it wasn’t 10%? Also I want the glasses you wear so I may also see indications at such great accuracy when I’m choosing my lotto numbers.

    Time to watch the Ozbargain “OP blame” “me know all” bandwagon people go to work on this story

    I see a large mob holding torches screaming a la Verge style

    Grabs popcorn …….

      Yeah, there's a lot of assumptions, accusations and even putting words in OP's mouth.
      Though this OP's only post and has zero comments (ever) which doesn't lend much credibility

  • AJ73 on 27/03/2021 - 18:30

    Just did a search for x299 motherboards on Centrecom and they have nothing at all in their listings, not even like graphics cards or other sold out items that still appear in searches despite not being in stock

    Scorptec's x299 range is all sold out as well but still appears in search results so hmmmmm

    OP is obviously angry that they got a refund for their 3090 and not a replacement but to me rest of the story not adding up

  • Samsquanch on 27/03/2021 - 19:11

    We had a problem with a GPU. Returned it - they tested and agreed it had a fault. RMA with Gigabyte handled by them. New card was returned and tested. All good and not an ouce of fuss by the Frankston store.

    Your problem is in the first line of your post lol.
    "I have been in the I.T Field for 10 years some of which i spent in government,"

    IT in government are useless, waste of taxpayer's money.

    • Clear on 27/03/2021 - 22:18

      IT in government are useless, waste of taxpayer's money.

      Don't say that. I've been getting a lot of hate mail from triggered government IT workers for saying that as a joke.

      • techlead on 27/03/2021 - 22:47

        Haha, they need to learn to take a joke.

        But with every joke, there's a grain of truth. Like a few years back, ATO workers were kicking up a stink because their work hours on their contract will now say 9-5 instead of 4:51pm. So stupid. I have worked in the private sector all my life and in addition to the work hours, there's always a line that says "plus reasonable hours in addition to the specified hours" and I've never just worked 37.50 hours a week. I think if my contract said 9am-4.51pm, I'd laugh haha. Do people really do walk out at 4:51pm on the dot? Their complaining suggests so…haha

        https://www.news.com.au/finance/work/at-work/ato-staff-refus…

        Shenanigans like that help create the perception that government workers don't do much…

        Just to clarify, my comment was a joke, so you government IT worker don't get triggered.

          you only need to open the paper any day in the past 12months to prove ………yep the government workers are useless, overpaid idiots

    I am not sure if any one remembers MSY when it was in that small Auburn shop and it got the queues on the Saturday. There was one guy, the youngish little guy with glasses, he had an attitude without saying anything. You know the guy. Not sure if anyone remembers Fluidtek, they had queues too on Saturday. Take the attitude just for the cheap prices.

      • AJ73 on 28/03/2021 - 18:12

        Yeah I remember lining up at MSY, there were quite a few who had zero customer service skills but as mentioned above the savings were worth the wait times and lack of good customer service

    A product went up and in price and you wanted a refund higher than you paid?

    And once again on Ozb, a first post and no follow up. Welcome to the real world and toughen up princess. 5 year old account though.
