Beware gpu medics

I got an imac G5 1.9 with video issues. I found a classified ad on Ebay for a company in the states that fixes the video. I sent it off to them and the nightmare begins. After a a few days (Canada post said it was delivered) they "finally" found it. After another week I email and phone to see the status and no answer of the phone, and no return emails.

I finally get ahold of a guy and he says Mark who, from where (here baby crying in the background) After a few more days nothing not a mention. I send an email to ebay they don't do anything because he is just a classified ad. Another week goes buy I finally get ahold of him and he is like yeah we will get to it. He finally emails back after I file a complaint with ebay saying it was fixed and he will send it out. 4 days go by so I thought I would call. Oh!! I am having problems with shipping I will get to it tomorrow. In the meantime I have paid for the repair (Paypal) and am just waiting. 2 days go by nothing saying he shipped it. 2 more days go by. I finally complain to Paypal about this transaction. The next day the guy refunds my and sends my Logic board back by UPS. That cost me $55 bucks today. I put the unit together and it's not even fixed. I am so bloody pi$$ed off. I have decided to part it out and recoup my money. The company is GPU medics in the states. They are the worst company I have ever dealt with and I am going to do anything I can legally to give them bad publicity as I feel they deserve it. Here is his last email sent on Oct 22. I paid him instantly with paypal.

Hello Mark,

Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I wasnt in the office yeasterday. I checked on the status of your G5.Your Apple iMac G5 has been completed. Theimac work great!! Your caps are fine. What method would you like to use for payment? We accept Paypal and credit cards. I can send you an Invoice using Paypal if you wish. If so is your Paypal email also [email protected]? You can also send the payment directly to us thru Paypal. Our paypal address is [email protected]. The charge is $75.00 + 25.00 return shipping = $100.00 even. Thanks for the business!! We appreciate it very much!! LIARS!!!

I got the board back last night (it was finished on Oct 22) and it did not work also cost me $55 in UPS fee's!

so if you have an imac or ibook or know anyone please consider my experience. These guys advertise on Ebay but ebay will not stand behind classified ad's placed on their site.
