Where does /pp/ buy it's computers?
 
I'm thinking of getting a new (to me) one. OHYEAH!

Where do you shop?

ebay?

ubid?

Tiger Direct?

newegg?

?????

I don't want to spend a lot but I want a lot of features so I'm thinking refurbished.

They have some bargains actually, but I don't think they have the features I want. Oh, well.

First off what the heck is /pp/?
and second, i'd say, find a friend who knows what they're talking about, and then BUILD one.
you'll learna little, you'll know what's IN your computer and how to remove whatever later should you need to.
:/
My current computer i built from scratch with parts from tigerdirect and newegg.
>_>
but if you don't wanna do that, yeah Best Buy or Staples.
(Even though i work at one of those peeps competitors <_< )

/pp/ is Process-productions, not your pp!


Oh-k, ordered a new one from a top seller who has an almost 100% positive rating and a lot of sales. Can't wait! OHYEAH!

This is true, but if you get a warranty on a refurbished model then you are doin fine. They tend to come with a year. I would just go and buy one from CostCo. They tend to have a good selection and a really bitching return policy.

Mostly it is just know what you want, or need. Then look around for what is out there. There are many deals to be had on this "interwebs" but just like in real life, if it looks to good to be true it probably is. Also as for Ebay if you look around you will figure out who is real and who isn't. Just think of it like a Farmers market the more legit they look and the happier the people are around it then the better odds it is a good place.

I have a friend who got a quad core with 8GB of RAM on the motherboard for 300$.
>_>
Then they bought a 512mb - 1GB video card for 80$ and popped that on there.
That's better than my computer, and I built mine from scratch. Cost me close to a 1000

I've found cost-co to be astoundingly expensive frankly for some items. So I gave up on them. Oh, well.

Gobosan1 05-04-2010 01:40 AM

Re: Where does /pp/ buy it's computers?
 
NewEgg, and Tigerdirect is where I got literally EVERY part for my new comp.

Re: Where does /pp/ buy it's computers?
 
EPIC FAIL! OHNOES!

Pc came doa. Luckily it's a power seller with a 99.8 positive rating so they'll probably make good.

Damn, and I really wanted a new one!

Re: Where does /pp/ buy it's computers?
 
OH WOW! They responded already! At this time of night. I'm very impressed. No wonder they are POWER SELLERS! Glad I didn't go on a drinking binge over it.
