I just made an order on Aspire (sorry, Wo-mart) few days ago; I didn't have monyebookers account (this sucks buy the way), so I had to first upload the money (still waiting to get through); from Paul's side communication is great, got automatic order confirmation, with order number, then Paul checked what is the monebooker's status, I explaned, he confirmed when the order will ship and how long will it take; I will post when it arrives, but so far looks like very good service.
On rust and quality, well, this is another issue, if you go for the new models you should be fine, for instance Paul has the new line of PO's, surely this will not be rusty. As for quality, these are reps, personally I would not bother Josh or Eddie if something boes belly up, my problem really, not that it ever happened. But come on, read posts on Paneriesti site, how many people hoad horrible experience with AD servicing, lets give Paul a break, his prices are so low one should not expect two-year full-service deal
