Do not deal with this guy or at least use paypal. Paid for 6600k on 1/26 via GW since heatware was good and recent his heatware, got a bunch of excuses on why not shipped and finally PM saying he'll refund on 2/5. Still nothing. Thankfully I can perform chargeback, but what a hassle and loss of funds for a month.

going to add my two cents. bought a dell 4k monitor from him right before new years. paid with my bank account via google wallet because he had solid heat.
he ending up shipping the monitor more than a week after he said he would, and i asked for a refund multiple times, which he was not willing to provide because he'd already used the money. from my understanding, he used the money i sent to pay his bills and didn't ship the monitor until he received more money from somewhere else.
the monitor eventually arrived in good working condition, but the entire box reeked of cigarette smoke. i didn't leave neutral heat because he was pretty honest throughout the entire process and i got what i paid for, but i would not deal with him again.

I've bought stuff off him before, sometimes took longer than I expected but always delivered and at a great price, what a shame.

Things like that need to make its way into heatware evals.........
Reading what you entered into heatware and what you describe here is like night and day.
I am in no way defending centvalny, just the need for proper evals...
my heatware comment was accurate. he packaged the monitor very well and it arrived in the condition advertised; no need to make stink over it because he was honest about why shipping was delayed. i checked his recent heat before sending the money via bank account, and everyone said he was a fast and dependable shipper, so i'm not going to ruin a guy's perfect heat over a seemingly isolated incident.
