GBNonexistent customer service, punishing cancellation fees, shady business practices BUYER BEWARE: AVA Direct customer service is nonexistent, hidden cancellation fees are punishing, and business practices are extremely shady. I ordered a PC and attempted to cancel the order 4 days later but was unable to reach them via phone (busy signal all the time), live chat (no live agent came on the line), and online form (no response). By the time I got ahold of them, they wanted to charge me $100 to cancel an order they hadn't built or shipped yet claiming they had "allocated parts for my order" by putting the parts in a bin. They fabricated a cancellation charge with no documentation of what 'parts had been allocated' and asked for it over the phone. I filed a dispute with my credit card and received my money back but I highly recommend you steer clear of this company. If necessary, play hardball and file a chargeback. They also have very suspicious online reviews (ResellerRatings.com) where they have 100% positive reviews in 1 year ... they don't have a SINGLE bad review in 365 days-- absolutely shady! My own negative review of them on that site mysteriously disappeared and won't appear. There are tons of negative reviews about them on social media forums where reviews can't be removed/manipulated so search on computer forums, Reddit, etc. Please do your research, take your money elsewhere, and don't buy from them!

GBGreat machine Fair price Great service and a fair price. The computer came as ordered and wasn't loaded with crapware nobody wants. It works great and I'll order my next machine from them.

GBFlawless Execution Both the build and shipping came off without complications. Packing it for shipping was the Chef's Kiss. And my PC arrived early. Checked all the connections and fired her up. Very happy with the results. Cable management was a work of art. I only wish I could buy a 2nd build now! But I have state of the art for my budget and no complaints what so ever.

GBAVA Direct has some of the best prices on top quality computers AVA Direct has some of the best prices on top quality computers, and excellent support. Unsure of the time a phone conversation or online chat would take, I posted a problem to their forum, and by the time I checked, a couple of hours later, they had provided a solution. If you know what hardware you need, and which manufacturer makes the best hardware for your computer, AVA Direct's huge list of options are likely to have it, at some of the most reasonable prices anywhere. There is also a lot of very useful information in the forums.
