The dishonest company – 1. I ordered an LG monitor online on 11/2/2024. The price was listed at $296 plus shipping. Amazon was selling at 363 including fast shipping. 2. The 2nd day, 12/2/2024, they listed the price at $529 in stock. 3. The 3rd day. On 13/2/2024, they listed the price at $491 in stock. When I contacted them, no one picked up the phone call or responded… Read more
to the online chat. They replied to my email at 12:49 pm on 13/2/2024 and said the order was cancelled due to a supply shortage. An untrustworthy seller. Stay away if you can.
Scam company - take your money then cancel order to sell at higher price – Placed an order for a graphics card during Black Friday - website says it is in stock, search for other items as I had a big list and other items show clearly as out of stock. review the Graphics card and still in stock so I buy it, then today they decide that it is no longer in stock and they cant get anymore, so they refund the money. But it… Read more
will take a week for the money to get back to my account, so i cant make use of Cyber monday sales either and my whole build is now on hold. They realised they had sold the card too cheaply and just cancelled the order so they can resale it at a biggger profit. Just checked on their site and the exact same card is on sale for $30 more, even though their email to me states:
"We tried to order more from our supplier, however, this model is not available due to shortage from the manufacturer. Unfortunately, we had to cancel and refund this purchase for the time being."
There are so many better shops that will honour their deals and look after their customers - this is not one of them!
I ordered from Skycomp because the product page stated “In Stock” and “Usually ships within 24 hours.” After payment, I received no dispatch confirmation, no tracking number, and no meaningful update. I attempted to contact them multiple times via email, phone, and online chat: Emails were not answered The phone line was unreachable Online… Read more
chat was not working / no response
At that point, the only way to protect myself was to lodge a PayPal dispute (Item Not Received).
This feels like a classic bait-and-delay setup: attractive pricing and availability claims up front, then silence once you’ve paid. If you value clear communication and reliable fulfilment, avoid and purchase elsewhere.
Advice: Only pay with PayPal/credit card if you do buy here, so you still have dispute protection.

Took the money and hasn't sent the item – Paid for my item via PayPal. $400. A week later, I contacted and they said it was out of stock and will refund my money? I'm still waiting for my money, then the same item is on sale for $541 in Stock. WTH... Show details
Don't buy anything in this store! – This is simply a scam site! It's disgusting that they lure you in with a lower price, all in stock, and then cancel my order two days later without my permission! Especially for the z790apex motherboard, I placed an order at 1050 on April 11, and the price increased to more than 1070 in the next few hours, and increased to 1097 on April 12. All… Read more
updates are displayed in stock! As a result, I was told on April 13th that there was out of stock. I have never encountered such a situation when shopping online. I have many reasons to believe that you are fraudulent customers and sold the motherboard to a higher buyer. In short, I can't accept this result. I waited for 3 days and it turned out to be such a result. It's really unbelievable! I was going to buy a rog 4090 white oc from them a week later, now that I'm out of shopping here, I don't want to go through it a second time!
Wasn't sure about these guy but no worries. Fast delivery – Bought a ThinkPad X12. Good price. Last store cancelled at last minute. Show details

Poor customer service – I ordered an RTX 4090 in December last year and had to RMA it due to constant BSODs. The RMA process has been frustrating, I have been waiting a month since I issued the RMA with no communication from Skycomp - not even a simple acknowledgement that the parcel has been received and that the RMA process is underway. The only confirmation I have is… Read more
from Aus Post that the package was delivered to the address.
I have tried calling the number on their webpage about 3 or 4 times and every single time it goes to voicemail without ringing once. Their live chat box if it even pops up disappears without warning while I'm in the queue. I've sent an email 24hrs ago and it has not been responded to. At this stage I'm not even sure there is anyone employed by the company for customer service. At this point I'm just hoping I can get a refund on my purchase and never have to order anything from them again. The only positives I have to say about the company are their prices are competitive and delivery was fast. But it seems you're up the creek if you get a faulty product.
Fastest and Cheapest (Almost) supplier during COVID – I constantly need random computer parts for my gaming business. Biggest issue these days speed of delivery. When I order from Mwave or UMart etc, I have no guarantee the items will dispatch within the same day or even the next day. Regardless if the item is in stock or I pay extra for express. Sometimes I'm waiting 2 to 5 days for items to… Read more
dispatch. Their biggest excuse, COVID.
Skycomp on the other hand are the only ones who have shipped on the same day/next day for all 11 orders I have made with them in the past 2 months. As long as their website says in stock, they deliver with speed!
CONS: Although their parts prices are also 5% to 15% cheaper than the rest even during COVID, their delivery price however is unusually expensive. The more you bundle the order the far greater the delivery cost. From what I have figured, parts can be located in different warehouses so they have to be dispatched individually as I do get multiple consignment numbers for a single order of parts. I would have dropped a star for this but if this is required for fastest delivery then I don't want to complain. Still, they could re-assess their delivery fee costs.
Things not yet tested: I have not had to return any parts for warranty purposes or cancellations. So I don't know how the experience will be.
Amazing customer service! They went above and beyond! – I ordered the aorus z390 mini itx motherboard from their website for a price that was less than half of their competitors. Along with this I also ordered my case. Less than a day later they contact me to let me know that the case will take a little longer than expected to get to me. I wanted the case pretty soon so I just asked for a refund on the… Read more
case which they did, while being really understanding and nice. That was just basic, good customer service which made me feel good. What made it a lot better were the bonuses they threw in. I won't say what they were out of kindness because I don't want them to have to deal with people asking for those bonuses lol. I will say that the multiple bonuses I received were amazing and not just small cheap stuff that was added in the delivery. Just to clarify, the bonuses weren't items or products I was given for free. This was way friendlier customer service than I expected and I will 100% order from skycomp again, for their cheap prices and their amazing customer service.

Excellent customer service with defective product – On 3 July 2023, I ordered a HP Elite Dragonfly G3 laptop from Skycomp. The speed of delivery was fantastic, as it was delivered the next day by courier. Unfortunately, as I used the laptop over the week, it became apparent there was a defect with the laptop's display. On 11 July 2023, I raised a request for return of the laptop. There was some… Read more
to-and-fro, and ultimately Skycomp accepted the return of the laptop to confirm the defect, then provided me with a refund.
This is reasonable and fair treatment of a defect for a business/enterprise product, and I commend Skycomp for providing excellent customer service that matches.
Top service and top goods – I was looking for an affordable of Windows 10 Home for my self and and friend. Looked up several computer stores on the Web for the best prices and postage costs. I have dealt with Skycomp Technology and I have found them to very easy to deal with and they have great prices on their goods. I made a purchase of 2 copies of Windows 10 Home (DVD) on… Read more
Sunday and they were delivered to my home a couple of days later on Tuesday. The Windows 10 Home copies were as advertised and they were in pristine condition. TOP MARKS TO THE TEAM AT SKYCOMP. Thank you for your efficiency. GJR
Super Fast Delivery – Bought items from this online store and with the fast response, they shipped it the following day. Took literally only 3 days to get here. Super Fast service and the price is reasonable. Show details

No updates on my card – I've been waiting on the return of my graphics card... I understand your not fixing it, but an update would be nice... it's been 5 weeks and I'm still sitting here with the same quote of ours 2-4 weeks Show details
Not so fast delivery and poor packaging – I ordered a 10TB Hard drive from Sky Comp (based on the fast delivery reviews). I added the note "Please wrap very well please", I ordered on Wednesday and it turned on on the following Monday even though I paid $68.30 delivery. It was delivered in the smallest box possible with zero bubble wrap of padding. Support was indifferent and incorrect when I chased up the order. I did receive a $50 refund for bad postage speed though. Show details
Good service overall – I bought a motorola moto phone with them and since it was defected I had to return it. They were very responsive and quick to provide a refund, however didn't reimburse me for shipping costs.

Great Service Fast Dispatch – Had an online chat to double check if a certain laptop was in stock, they confirmed and told me their stock levels, Very happy to find an honest computer retailer, please give them business. I have had bad experiences with outer retailers saying they have stock when they don't. Skycomp also shipped same day and super quick, very happy & will use them more often.
Great Service and Speedy delivery – Skycomp has been the best pc part ordering experience. Unlike other online computer stores, upon placing an order at Skycomp they always shipped my items out within 1 business day. Additionally so far I have opted for domestic delivery ( cheapest delivery option) and have received my orders with 2 business days. Its amazing to see a computer… Read more
company use quick and fast delivery couriers, rather than blaming their courier for delayed deliveries. Would shop here again.
Great service – I ordered my LG Monitor late Wednesday morning and it arrived at 12:45 Thursday!!! - Fantastic. It was easy to order online (could not use Firefox) so I was very satisfied with my experience with Skycomp. Show details
Initially had some issues, but they have now been resolved – Recently wrote a review where there was some issues which arose with receiving a damaged item and initially was not able to resolve it to satisfaction. However after some further communications with management I can pleasantly say that it has now been resolved to a point which I am extremely satisfied with the outcome and this review has now been updated to reflect that.

Fantastic – After spending days trying to find a local retailer with high capacity hard drives in stock I came across Skycomp; YES they actually had the stock claimed on the web store, ordered mid-afternoon, they were processed and shipped by EOD and I received them early the following afternoon! Show details
Skycomp better than all the others (im pointing at you scorptec, pccg, centrecom) – I just dont know how they do it. They have the best prices compared to ANYWHERE else in Australia and they do express shipping. It ALWAYS arrives within 1-3 days, I will always continue to shop here for as long as I live and will recommend it to others too. I hope you guys stay open forever, thanks for being amazing. I just hope the aftersales in terms of warranty or RMA'ing things will be just as smooth. Thanks again Show details

QNAP NAS delivered to Perth within 3 days! – My old QNAP died and I needed a new urgently. The one I wanted was not available in WA. I ordered it from Skycomp on a Sunday evening; it was dispatched for delivery on Monday and arrived mid-afternoon on Wednesday. The freight cost was exorbitant (>$190), but they were using Australia Post. I have previously waited over 3 weeks for parcels… Read more
from the Eastern States to be delivered via Australia Post, so I was happy with the delivery time in this case. The new QNAP was up and running within 3 hours. Thankyou Skycomp.
Excellent Customer Service and Competitive Price – I generally never leave reviews, unless I have something positive to day. Living in Victoria I ordered from Skycomp (New South Wales based) due to their pricing. The limited edition graphics card came within 2 days extremely quick and also well packaged. The graphics card packaging did not seem tampered with and was new. However being a slightly… Read more
older product (at purchase date) it arrived Dead On Arrival (DOA). Being very concerned I sent a message (with pictures attached) to the RMA team through their decent web site and they were very helpful and responsive. They did their very best to rectify this problem. Even though I ended up returning this item, my interactions with them during COVID proved that I can get a better deal and service (in another state) than the well known local shops in my area in Victoria. I look forward to purchasing item with Skycomp in the future.
Excellent service – I am always wary of trying out new suppliers after an unfortunate incident with one particular company a while back. I checked the reviews of Skycomp, and it sounded like they were ok. I placed my order and hoped for the best. To my complete surprise, the item arrived almost straight away, I got my shipping confirmation with tracking code… Read more
almost immediately, delivery was due the day after the order (sadly it then took an extra day because of the shipping company).
There was no no messing around checking to see if accounts had verified the order, no delay with cheap shipping etc etc.
Great price too.
Very happy with this company.
Won’t refund full price – I purchased a cpu cooler that wouldn’t fit in my case so requested an exchange. Skycomp said they will charge 30% of the retail price I paid as a restocking fee which is a whopping $70... just to restock a product?? I decided to just get a refund and purchase a new cpu cooler elsewhere. Would not shop here again or recommend skycomp to anyone. Show details

No Communication at all – I tried to ask about a laptop eta and my email was ignored, when i asked about the laptop in the live chat on the website, my chat was closed off without explination and I am unable to re-access the chat window at all. I understand that due to COVID at the moment, eta's may be all over place or they may not have one at all, however, simply saying that to me rather than ignoring me or closing the chat window off would have 100x better.

Great price and fast shipping – Great price and fast shipping. Bought Gigabyte GeForce RTX 2080 Ti Gaming OC 11GB Video Card GV-N208TGAMING-OC-11GC which is $330 cheaper than other places (same brand and model). Awesome shopping experience overall. Show details

Very fast order processing – I made an order of several items from Skycomp, and also a few similar items from a competitor. With both stores highly rated and both having the items in stock, I expected to receive the items within a few days of each other. To my surprise; Skycomp processed my order the next morning after my order, whilst the competitor took ~3 days to do the… Read more
same. I received my two seperate shipments from Skycomp within 3 days which was great. The competitor only sent out my items 3 days ago, almost 2 weeks later and I still haven't received them.
I would definitely recommend Skycomp for the price and the express processing. Their prices are often the best or close to the best also.
