Listen up computer shop owners out there! whatever you do, do not do business with notebookparts.com or any other company owned by Abbassi Rahim (a.k.a. “John”)!
This company is questionable at best in my opinion. I ordered a new 8x CD-RW drive for an older Gateway laptop from notebookparts.com. I received a used, defective drive. I called notebookparts.com and Abbassi Rahim agreed to send me a replacement. The replacement was supposedly *new* but is also defective.
This whole mess took more than 4 weeks to play out after shipping, and my customer finally got tired of messing with it and cancelled his order. So I emailed “John” (I suspect Abbassi Rahim) and asked for an RMA number from notebookparts.com to return the second defective drive for a refund.
But guess what…. All notebookparts.com CD drive sales are now final. You are taking your life into your hands if you deal with Abbassi Rahim or notebookparts.com.
It also looks like I am not alone in my opinion. Check out these horrible reviews of Abbassi Rahim and notebookparts.com

Wow! I used to work in retail, and a can guarantee you, if we treated a customer like this, we wouldn’t be in business. Working with ANY type of sales, you need to stand by your product and run your business honestly and ethically. And how does a company SUDDENLY change their return policy in the middle of doing business? All Sales Final??? Let’s take that concept a little further. I buy what I think is a new car, but later find out that it is used and a lemon. If all sales are final, how often do you think people will shop with that dealer?? How sad.
FOLLOW UP… I went to this site and HE HAS A RETURN POLICY!! There is nothing that states All Sales Final! Seems shady to me.
it’s almost like they don’t understand how easily these things can ruin them. once it’s on the internet, they’ll be running from it for a looong time. oh, and thanks for taking the bullet for us on this one. i’m glad it wasn’t me. haha
