Wow... I had almost forgotten about being ripped off by Leo Guillen and crew last year, but apparently he has found the site and decided to put up some GLARINGLY obvious fake rebuttals from "satisfied customers". Let's start with the post called "Best Computer Store Micro Magic US". Bla bla bla... shipping was fast, I got exactly what I wanted, bla bla bla. Who signed it? Leo. From Rowland Heights. Who owns the 4magicus.com domain? Leo. From Rowland Heights. Leo is not the sharpest knife in the drawer. At least put a fake name to go along with your fake review! Domain Name.......... 4magicus.com Creation Date........ 2006-03-31 Registration Date.... 2006-03-31 Expiry Date.......... 2007-03-31 Organisation Name.... leo guillen Organisation Address. 1881 valencia st Organisation Address. Organisation Address. Rowland Heights The next "rebuttal" (I Love 4magicus Micro Magic Us Sweet Company And Very Good) comes from "Ted". Hooray! Leo decided to at least put a fake name in this time! Have I mentioned that spelling/grammar/English are not Leo's specialty? let's look at rebuttal #2. Ted is so excited that he puts in raving review after raving review. Except... Ted has apparently found the following site, which list Shimon Rura's scam experience with Leo (http://www.rura.org/scam/). Interspersed with the fake reviews are gems such as: "So you see this reprot was only don by one person by the name of Shimin Rura who is a lyer and an out rite Fraud and who lives in Boston And San Frn Were all the Gay peoply live." Really? Boston is in/near/around San Francisco? Shimon managed to get in contact with Brian Glick, Financial Crimes Detective with the El Monte Police Department (local to Leo Guillen). Somehow, the really happy 4magicus customers have decided to leave reviews that allude to Brian: "If you have Received a Item due to this company being great, Please contact: Brian Glick Financial Sales (Rep) El Monte 4magicus.com Sales Department phone (626) 850-1275 email [email protected] He is really AFFILIATED with this company!!

He is a Real Sales (REP) with the El Monte Sales Draft Dept. 4magicus.com Doing the Amrican Dream Yeah! On File 5/17/2007 3:30:00 PM 4Magicus.com The exact same report... 1 day apart. If you read my previous comments on Leo and his ripoff companies, you will see that he is a big fan of "Copy and Past". Leo also transposed Brian's phone number digits. If you have been scammed, and would like to get ahold of him, his REAL contact information as follows. Detective Brian Glick of the city of El Monte, CA police department is investigating MicroMagic (now 4magicus) scam reports, and needs more reports from people who think they may have been scammed.

Some people work hard to make an honest living, and then there are people like Leo. What a load of... Stay away from these scammers. I would not order from them for ANY REASON AT ALL!!!

Please Read All The Good Things That All Their Customers Have Said About Them. I ordered a case a few years back and it didn't turn out that good, I kept getting the wrong case but the 3rd time was the charm. Needless to say I was sceptical about ordering a power supply from them, but I did and I got what I payed for, a great power supply and a new found company that I'll recomend to anybody. On File 5/18/2007 2:33:00 PM 4Magicus.com Positive Fast shipment, great price, great transaction! I'll gladly do business with them again. On File 5/18/2007 1:58:00 PM 4Magicus.com Positive They have always been very quick in filling my orders accurately and shipped in a timely fashion. Recommend them to other people with hardware needs all the time. On File 5/17/2007 3:51:00 PM 4Magicus.com Positive I ordered four different items from Pricewatch on the same day. My external hard drive that I ordered from 4Magicus.com arrived days before the others. I was also pleased to find it was already partitioned for me. I've ordered from them before and will do so again in the future. Especially since they keep their prices competitive.

We put the order in the cart and went throught the other screens and finished and printed the sale. The package came with a few days as expected. The hard drives were wrapped in bubble wrap with no chance to damage in the box. Im happy like all you others R On File 5/17/2007 3:12:00 PM 4Magicus.com Positive Customer service is responsive via email and their price is very cheap.

Keep it up 4Magicus.com On File 5/17/2007 3:10:00 PM 4Magicus.com Positive I purchased a wireless card from 4Magicus.com and it just arrived the day after. Website is easy to navigate, price is the lowest I seen, fast shipping. Great experience, I will be back. Thanks! On File 5/17/2007 1:14:00 PM 4Magicus.com Positive This place must be the best kept secret on the net! I ordered once hoping the price and availability were accurate and they were much to my surprise. After receiving my item faster then I thought I had to order again and had the same result. I try not to give reviews for places I like to think are my little secret but this place backs it up. Great job guys will be back again!!

So here's my story for 4/20: Order on 4/18, expecting 1-5 days delivery, got it on 4/20. yup, THAT fast. After reading all the reviews, I was a bit skeptical. (the Website design didn't look too professional either) However, I opted for a name brand Kingston RAM instead of the mystery bag maybe its samsung maybe its not cheaper choices. BEST PRICES, FAST DELIVERY! Here's to 4/20 & Upgrade S!

I'm not sure where this ends, but it is quite interesting! As mentioned in my last post, Micromagic.us is now operating as chinpc.net and 4magicus.com. Now chinpc.net is a virtual clone of the old micromagic.us site. They have just changed the color of the sidebar and the font. The second site, however, (4magicus.com) has a completely different layout. Leo Guillen had trouble even typing a coherent email. How did he manage to develop this 2nd new site (they were registered within a week of each other)??? Hmm... Well, the day after he registered the new domain, the following job posting appeared here: http://www.getafreelancer.com/projects/Logo-Design/Customize-Yahoo-store-home-page.html Status: Frozen Budget: $ 100-300 Created: 04/01/2006 at 18:37 EST Bidding Ends: 04/11/2006 at 18:37 EDT Project Creator: cnp Buyer Rating: (No Feedback Yet) Description: 1) current yahoo store http://micromagic.us new domain name 4Magicus.com 2) want to have a feel and look similar to http://www.enetshoponline.com/ (http://store.yahoo.com/pcmemory-stores/index.html) all Yahoo functions shall remain 3) Include a new logo (make a suggestion !) and couple attractive "banner" 4) Send in prior Yahoo store work for reference (must !) 5) time frame 2 weeks Someone was HIRED to design the new site.They did such a good job of cloning the new site... let me share the "about us" from both sites: http://store.yahoo.com/pcmemory-stores/aboutus.html "ENETSHOPONLINE.COM (Enet Marketing, Inc.) was founded on July 1st, 1999 and DBA by ATRIC Technology Inc. Currently, ENET is the Pan-American Sales and Marketing representative for most major Memory Technology Companies from ASAI. Our manufacturing partners are capable of producing over 70,000 mainboards, peripheral cards, memory modules and other components each month. Our combined strong R&D teams are able to provide advanced products a step ahead of our competitors which assures you a profitable business." (it continues, but here is the 4magicus.com site) http://www.4magicus.com/aboutus.html "4MAGICUS.COM (micro magic, Inc.) was founded on July 1st, 1999 and DBA by micro magic Inc. Currently, 4MAGICUS is the Pan-American Sales and Marketing representative for most major Memory Technology Companies from ASAI.

Hmmmm.... both companies were founded the exact same day, and have WORD FOR WORD the same description. WTF???
