"Hyper Stimulator" fm Desktop Sims

Hi, I've had a "Hyper Stimulator" on order for quite some time now and I'm starting to get "conflicting" stories (about delivery) from different people at Desktop Simulators in Texas (where I ordered the HS from). Does anyone have any experience with this company ??? I'd be interested to know about someone else's experiences. Thanks, EE

Hello, As I noted a couple of weeks ago on this group, my experience with them was unsatisfactory. I was given the run around for a couple of months and ended up canceling my order. They lied to me about the status of the product by implying that it was on the water, being held by Customs, etc. In the end, one of their people told me that they were holding orders till they got sufficient quantities to actually place the order with Hyper in Australia. Desktop Simulators told me that Hyper requires 20 units to be ordered at a time and D.S. didn't want to have to carry that much expensive inventory. Fair enough, but why couldn't they be honest and up front about from the beginning instead of giving false ship dates, product status, etc? Hyper in Australia will have to establish another dealer in the States before I would consider it again. There is a dealer in Canada ( I believe in Vancouver) that someone in the northwest told me he visited and purchased a unit from. I live in Indiana so that isn't an option for me ... Jeff

Jeff, I suspected as much, I've been hearing the same excuses. I think I'll start investigating other options. Are the ECCI contols significantly better than TSW ??? Looks like these two are the most logical upgrades from a T-2 ??? Thanks for your advice, EE

BF, Thanks for letting me knw, I was getting kind of leery of thses guys. They've told me too many stories. Guess I'll look elseware. Got any suggestions over a T-2 ??? I'd have a TSW but they're taking so long (if I'd ordered from them first, looks like I'd have one by now !!!). Thanks, EE

Go with the TSW2 -- it's worth the wait. -- JB

The fellow you mentioned Jeff is Rory Brown in Vancouver BC Canada. That's the guy that I got mine from. He's very nice, and I had no problems with him what so ever. I'm sorry to hear that EE, as well as others are having problems with the US dealer, but I've heard stuff like this about him before. It's unfortunate that they have chosen to go with this one source of importation into the US. I know that they (Hyperstimulator) have two distributors in Canada. One is Rory in Vancouver, and there is another one in the East (I want to say Montreal, but I'm not sure). The product is far superior to anything else I've seen, and if you're handy with tools, the kit versions make a very attractive option. Might I make a couple of suggestions? Try contacting Rory at this URL: http://www.directcomputers.com/ He's a very nice and helpful guy and might be able to explain some things to you. Also, let the people at Hyperstimulator know the problems you are having. Email them DIRECTLY, and tell them everything that you've been told. Here's if someone doesn't tell them. Anyway, sorry to hear about your problems, but, if I could work out other options to get a Hyper unit, I'd still try to figure out how to do that. Just my 2 cents. Take care, TB

Hate to have to tell you, but there was someone here saying they'd been given the run around for months about a week or so ago. Seems there's a supply problem and rather than tell people they seem to like to give them the run around.

TB, Thanks for the advice, I'll contact the Cnadian dealer and HS directly. Thanks again, EE
