GBGreat company. Reviewers are not smart. I'm astounded by the plethora of buffoons who write bad reviews about arrival dates and pricing. Don't you people understand that video cards are in very short supply everywhere and manufacturers are screwing over resellers left and right by missing delivery dates and jacking up costs? What other company lets you wait in line for $0 for very hard to get items and lets you cancel if you don't want to wait anymore without paying a fee? Man, there are some really dumb people in this world. This company is perfectly fine and does a great job of communication and letting you know what's going on with your order. I've been using them for over 20 years. They're not a scam.

GBQueue > random drops I, like many others, am in the market for a GPU and I can't believe how many people are getting upset over a FREE queue. In a world where amazon, best buy, and the other big companies have truly awful systems that seem to cater towards bots and scalpers, BLT's queue at least gives some transparency and the promise of an eventual GPU for those willing to show a bit of patience. Granted, it might be A LOT of patience, but that's the current market right now. I honestly don't see a downside as it is free to wait and free to cancel if I find a GPU in the meantime. Bummed out that BLT's review score has gone down to four stars, but hopefully with some more rational reviewers such as myself, we can get it back up to five.

GBLowest price available Lowest price available. Would have preferred boxed version, but availability was uncertain and other reviews had mixed experiences with out of stock promise dates. Un boxed CPU worked and I was able to use a cooler and video card (CPU does not have integrated video) I had on hand. Shipping took about 5 days.

GBOMG a PRE-ORDER! O.O Well, I've done it, I've joined the GPU queue. I wish I knew exactly how many cards were reserved ahead of mine, but I'm a patient man (I'm only curious about this because when I was checking the "real time availability" of the graphics card I wanted, it never loaded). You have no idea how grateful I am to find you guys. Seriously, why is nobody else letting people pre-order these things? You have my business!

GBCorporate software licence renewal was quick and easy I'd never shopped at ShopBLT, and I needed a corporate licence renewal for a Trend Micro antivirus suite. Price was good and processing of the renewal was fast. I got the renewal codes from Trend Micro within a day, which is 2-5 days faster than with vendors I'd used in the past. Can't confirm it was ShopBLT or Trend Micro who was faster but, regardless, the process was fast and as painless as it can be for spending thousands of $$.
