Is it safe to buy pc parts from Amazon and choose free super saver delivery?

As the title entails..
Just wanted to know people's experiences with getting pc parts shipped from other countries.

I got free super saver delivery before and it seemed fine... just took a few more days to get here. :\

I always buy with super saver. Never had any problems apart from the goods turning up a day or 2 earlier than they said and not being at home so having to pop down to the post office. Largest order was all the bits n pieces for my desktop self build and it all turned up in record time and well packed..

Well, Amazon packages are delivered by USPS, UPS, or FedEx...

The good news is that from my experience if you have any problems or return any packages to Amazon it's relatively hassle-free.

I trust Amazon and have been buying from them for years and years. I would give them an A+ across the board.

P.S. - Note that I am talking about the "Fulfilled byAmazon" only. Amazon "Marketplace" could be different, as the packages are bought and delivered by a third party (not Amazon)... That experience would vary by vendor and you should use more caution when ordering such.

I agree with Adroid. I have only used a 3rd party supplier once and that was from a local (30 mile away) firm but it was AOk. Every other sale (About 150 ish) have all either been "Supplied" or "Fulfilled" by Amazon. I have had to return 2 items in 8 years. Both times it was dvds that would only write 1 in 10, and it was in the early days.
