Has anyone here have any experience with www.pcexpress.co.za? Are they any good. Four reviews on hellopeter and all of them are negative. Prices seems good though.

Same company as http://www.pcint.co.za if you look at the contact details. Been there before. A decent shop.

Have just ordered something from these guys @ PC Express.co.za and hoping for the best. Will post back about my experience but so far not so good as I cannot reset my password using their emailed rest link and had to do the guest checkout. They did however redeem themselves by responding to my other email queries within a short timeframe (few minutes apart). Their payment systems is also not my preferred way to pay but have used it successfully.

Very positive experience with PC Express but had to do it through an alternative method of ordering as the website keeps offering to reset my password by sending a link that goes no further than the homepage for PC Express. In short, I ordered a gaming monitor on Monday, and received it on Tuesday! Amazingly fast and good quality product! I would recommend them for anybody that's looking for a good deal on PC monitors that in currently out of stock at most other trusted online vendors.

I know this thread is not the most recent but I am planning on buying an all in one cooler and PC Express seem to be the only place that has stock of the particular one I'm looking and their price is majorly unbeatable compared to other more well known vendors.
Can anyone offer an update to their quality of service / reliability in 2020?

Won't be possible for you during the lockdown period.
AFAIK only Wootware are able to sell PC parts during this period.
I haven't seen any other ecommerce platform claiming the same.

I am definitely willing to wait until after lockdown has concluded.
I haven't had experience with this shop. Hope you get feedback from others.
PC Express / PC International - Best online service ever with next day delivery
I recently bought a gaming monitor at an excellent price and received it the VERY NEXT DAY! Very positive experience with PC Express! They also trade under PC International with the same product range. I had to use an alternative ordering method via an online quote through email as the website...

I'm going with the NZXT H210
I've decided I want to go with the NZXT X52 Kraken: https://www.pcexpress.co.za/nzxt-kraken-x52-240mm-all-in-one-closed-loop-cpu-cooler

I used to use PC International a lot back in the day, spent a good 40k there when the R/$ was still 6. When the owners know your name cause you walk in and just go I want this and do a sweeping gesture 
. Strange how those two machines I built back then for 20k would be pretty worthless now.
I've not used them since though unfortunately as their pricing was more or less the same as Wootwares and they were always out of stock of the items i wanted.
Though if they keep their pricing the same as it's currently I may give them a visit after lockdown, they are now far cheaper than wootware.

Roughly about 19 or so years ago, they used to be in the shopping centre further up on Bond Street.

Probably yeah. I remember buying a graphics card from them when they were in their old place.
