i read alot about those frankenjups being built from used parts. is there any proof for that? i mean was there dust in the coolers or something like that?

Here you can see through the bubble wrap packaging that the coolers have old thermal paste, showing they are old and used

thats hardcore

That's hardcore, indeed. And it seems as if it was planned. KnC writes in its TOS:

Quote

1.2 The Products are sold for business use only and Purchaser hereby accepts that it has purchased the Products in order to conduct a business.

Now KnC's "Kurt" translates this into:

Quote

What you agreed to states that you are purchasing as a business in a business to business transaction, you are not a consumer.

English isn't my first language, and maybe I totally misunderstand this. But first of all: If KnC would like to make a deal with a company - which would clearly be a business - then they would give the option on their homepage to register as a company. This is not possible. You only can register as a private person.

So they knew from the beginning that they will mainly deal with individuals.

Now they write in the TOS: "for business use". And "in order to conduct a business."

WIth no word they write that the buyer IS a business. Nevertheless, "Kurt" now says that all transactions were of a "business to business" nature.

Why does he write "you are not a consumer"? Because KnC is afraid as hell that the Swedish Consumer Protection Agency (or however you call this thing) may jump on their back. Therefore he is whining that "you are not a consumer". What they delivered with the Frankenjups is potentially hazardous - and could mean a lot of trouble with Consumer Protection. Not only in Sweden, but all over Europe. And I guess in the US, too.

Alternatively, they knew from the beginning that they will rip off their clients and put the "business"-paragraph into their TOS, planing to refer to it once the whole operation blows up.
