I have bought a number of things from DAK.  Several CD players, a
collection of classical CDs, and a bunch of bread makers.  I have
not bought any of their PCs, but only because I have not been in
the market.  Our experience with DAK may be indicative, however.

The CD players were adequate.  Not a bad deal, but not an
extraordinary deal either.

The same applies to the classical CD deal.  Good CDs (though some
did not play on one of our CD players, but I suspect the player as
it plays on all of our others).  Good, but it was not an
extraordinary deal.

The bread makers have been an EXCELLENT deal.  They are currently
selling for $130 and the exact same bread maker sells at Sears for
(I think) $220 (but under the Welbilt brand name).  And unlike the
other bread makers, DAK sends a small book of recipes which
actually work!

In things other than the bread maker, we have found them to be OK.
But we are VERY happy with the bread maker.  In fact, it looks as
though the bread maker is a pet project of the owner of DAK, Drew
Kaplan.  He keeps sending us more recipes, unsolicited.  Which we
like.

I suggest any follow ups be sent to misc.consumers as that is more
appropriate for discussing mail order companies than a comp.*
