Before you believe a bad review about us

We would like to respond openly to every negative review about us. Many are posted anonymously, so we cannot reach those customers directly. This open letter is our reply, and we would be grateful if you took a moment to read it.

But here is what a one-star review will never tell you:

  • We import from 70+ official distributors. That is why you pay far less than local retail — and why delivery takes longer. We publish the date before you pay, never after.
  • You can pay only when your goods land in Johannesburg. Pay on Arrival, no full payment up front. Ask yourself what scammer offers that.
  • Nobody has ever lost money with us. You get the product, or you get a refund. There is no third option, and there never has been.
  • We are part of the ITwork group — ten years trading in Europe, nine stores, thousands of positive reviews.
  • Johannesburg and Cape Town stores open this year — real shelves, real stock, walk in and buy the same day.

We are not satisfied with our review scores, and we are not going to fix them by hiding anything. We are fixing them by being faster, clearer and easier to reach than any reason to complain.

Read the full letter — photos and video of real shipments, and a straight answer to every accusation.

Problem with an order right now? Write to [email protected], [email protected] or [email protected] — answered the same business day. The letter also lists our group and store owners' contacts.

How to use

Power on the MacBook Air M5 by opening the lid and pressing the power key if required. Follow the on-screen setup assistant to configure macOS Tahoe, sign in with your Apple ID and enable iCloud and Continuity features if you use other Apple devices. Install applications from the App Store or trusted developers and transfer files from backups or other computers using Migration Assistant or iCloud. Adjust display, power and keyboard settings in System Settings to match your workflow and enable Wi‑Fi 7 connectivity through the network preferences.

Recommendations

For optimal performance, keep macOS Tahoe and installed applications up to date, maintain at least 10–20% free SSD capacity to ensure efficient storage operations, and use Apple-recommended chargers. When working on battery, reduce screen brightness and close unused apps to extend runtime.
