Esquire Thanks you for your support today

[Esquire]

Hi All

On behalf of management and staff I would like you thank you for your support today , We had 97 MyBB members that that bought from us today and totalling sales from MyBB of R R281 738.56 , I know that the place was absolutely chaos , but that was expected as we did over 1241 invoices today this has been new record for us for one day trade in Xpress Midrand.

As promised tomorrow we will do some more specials for those that missed out or those that could not make it, the specials will be available for Thursday, Friday and Saturday

The Good news is that we will also do the same specials for the branches , but we regret that all 150x BenQ 32” LCD TV’s @R3599.00 excl are sold out and new stocks are expected by end of July 2009

I will posted the new specials from Wednesday night

Thank you once again for your support and sharing our birthday with us

R280k from myBB members. Wow!

 

[Picard]

I have spent about R500 at Esquire (CpT) this year.

Although it was through a reseller.

Awesome stuff. I think the next BIG sale should target at least R1mil worth of sales from forum members. It's awesome having a rep on the forums.

Kinda like how newegg.com advertises on hardforum.com, it's a very effective way of making extra sales.

 

[Pooky]

WOW nice!

...Can I have a cheap 1tb hard drive now?

 

[plazma]

Please remember Cape Town!

 

[phiber]

Are the sales open to public or do i need to be a dealer to come through ?

 

[Nokkie]

speaking of esquire... Do they stock Seagate external and internal drives?

This question has been asked and answered so many times dude, read around and you will quickly work it out

 

[Stokstert]

I suggest Esquire to have an open day for MyBB members only one day, maybe more would attend if there is less queuing and chaos.

Food for thought-will ponder on the idea

Esquire, you legend well done for yesterday, was sick in bed and missed it

 

[iDOL]

It was chaos yesterday , made 2 attempts at entering the store and promptly left.

I think on days like these with specials, you need to move the line to pay for items elsewhere.

Geesh, it was bad.

 

[lucifir]

WOW nice!

I'm with pooky on this ... will the durban branch have the same specials?? [except for the benq LCD TV (whatever ) ]

 

[qu1k_sh0t]

I am so bleak I didn't even know about the specials. Looking forward to seeing what is going on in the coming days

Will be popping in to take a look once the new specials have been unveiled later today!

Needing a new DVD-writer, I visited the Xpress store on Monday afternoon, for the first time. Wasn't too keen on facing 100's of people fighting over bargains yesterday. I checked on the website first and saw that an LG unit was in stock. However they only had Liteon models on the shelf and none of the assistants could shed any light on LG units. That was a shame, since I was happy with the shop otherwise. Friendly staff all round.

Did you take the Lite-on? They're very good.

I did. I saw a review of the listed LG on CD-Freaks which sang praises of the speed and build quality. The Liteon's tray grates like it needs oiling, which doesn't sound encouraging

 

[Decotey]

My lite-on died on me the other day, wouldn't go that route

Hi there

It is unfair to say that Liteon drives are bad drives as we sell an average of 5000 drives per month and have less 10 units that come back faulty per month , In fact I just checked our faulty units reports for June and so far this month we received 1 unit back as faulty

What we have found is that DVD drives like your DVD player , or even like the old VHS units they attract dust to the laser ,and a simple clean with a laser lens cleaner that cost about R15.00 works 99% of the time, at Esquire we even bought a compressor so when a clients bring in a DVD writer we blow out all the dust and find the drives works again with no issues.

But if the drives is dead( No power) , there is nothing we can do but replace the unit.

Hope this helps
