Where is a good place to purchase computer hardware?

Monday, 06 September, 2004

I was wondering where to purchase computer hardware at a good and reasonable price?

Adam Billington, Castle Hill, NSW


That's a very open question. It depends on what you want to buy, how mobile you are and whether you are interested in service as well as price.

For a start, it's only a ten minute drive from your place in Sydney to the North Rocks computer market on Sundays. Take a look if you've never been.

There are the ads in PC User and in the Trading Post. There are hundreds of computer stores around Sydney, and then there's always mail-order.

Another bad place and ripp off are the www.dcomponline.com.au. the guy at liverpool dcomp store,sort of trying to educate me on some things about the computer.i asked for the quad i5 750 and he said there only for the digital stuff which i cant remember what he said and the gaming only needs dual core not quad and the i5 750 cost $339.he also said dual core are better than quad with 32nm is faster than 45nm,but the 45nm is better according to me.i also asked for the 1600mhz memory ram, they sell third party products like geil brand and he was going to sell me geil 4gb 1333 and i was unhappy about that and i knew 1600mhz is faster and better performance so i was right again nd lastly with the operating system, he was going to throw in windows vista 32 bit,but i said windows 7 64 bit home premium.so i thought,stuff this and i aint getting parts from them.they dont deserve my money. i came home with anger and i knew what i was doing.

The team at Zip campbelltown are a's.They wont warranty items are arrogant and rude and have no business acumen. I have spent around 2K with them and they wont warranty a $29 item. They wont get another cent of mine. Arrogant idiots.Search the web and you will many more unhappy customers. A good business to stay away from.

I shop at http://www.pcstoreonline.com.au.

They have been really reliable on my previous purchases. It is also far cheaper to purchase online, and PC Store Online feature a large range of goods with great prices.

I hope this helps!

I would have to say that a lot of those places look alright, but I've been ordering stuff from Scorpian Technology Online for the past few years, and I gotta tell you, they are excellent! Yeah, I know, someone's already said it, but seriously, they are.
However, I wouldn't get a case from them!
So check out: http://www.scorptec.com.au and good luck.

The cheapest place in Sydney is Zip Computers. They have stores in Liverpool and Campbelltown.

http://www.zipcomputers.com.au/

Another place I have heard of is A3 Computers or something like that. They are very competitive. Again, from what I have heard.

I've found a good online store, their prices are very cheap. I purchased a few products saving about $150.00 in total.

Try ITeLECTRICAL Computers.

The best place by far I have found is http://www.scorptec.com.au they are located in Clayton, Victoria but can ship to anywhere in Australia.

They have a great range of products and their website is very easy to use.

re: Where is a good place to purchase computer hardware?
Use http://www.razorprices.com to search for the best prices. There is no "BEST" store but I recomend in your general area is (my fav) www.yenindustries.com | www.secretnet.com.au | www.pluscorp.com.au

Hope this helps!
