Good Day Guys.

I am busy creating the webpage for my Online PC shop where we focus on Gaming gear for PC, and also other Hardware.

What would you as the clients want to see on the site, what options etc.

Currently we have free shipping offer (included in the Price) also the prices are VERY competitive to all other shops due to me having a arrangement with suppliers and being a Official Razer Reseller and Retailer.

I would be stocking from ThermalTake all the way to Logitech.
Basically what ever you want i can get and it, supply and demand is my biggest focus, with reasonable warranties and guaratees.

Please feel free to enquire, recommend, and suggest any feedback on this forum.

The website will be live as from 15/03/2013 so all feedback is welcome.

Kind Regards
Xander Strydom
Owner Of Professional Computing Innovations (P.C.I)

You do your own assembly?
 
Unlike your posts, if you have written the text of your website I hope you have put through a spell checker.

I will compile a preliminary quote for you so that you can see what the pricing of those components are.
I should have it listed tomorrow for you.

@hereticangel

Thank you for the Headsup!!!!!!!
i am looking to utilize RAM and postnet, but looking at other options at this time
At Professional Computing Innovations our aim is to underpromise and over deliver.

Awesome , look at DHL also , though i think they probably expensive.

Because There is some online shops i don't use anymore , because the couriers they use is not worth it, i will rather pay extra for my package to be on time with a decent courier service.
 
Thank you for the suggestion, i will put it on my list of the couriers, i have had some experience with DHL and personally not impressed, but will look at the packages they can offer.
However i can assure you that the courier service that i will be using will deliver ontime and do as they and I sign up for.

What I typically look for on an online PC shop are:
1) Decent prices
2) Good service all round
3) Good menu/navigation structure (eg. CPU -> Intel -> Socket 1155 is good, where as just having CPU category sux) and the ability to sort and filter according to brand/price
4) Credit card payment method is a bonus

I'm still looking for an online PC shop that can easily create a quote that I can post on forums
Like it has to be able to convert the cart/wish list into a quote that includes the Item name (incl. an URL to the item) and the price :D
