Pentium 4 3.0GHZ 512KB Cache 800MHZ FSB $506 .....at your 'shop' .......now I realise that some companies may have better buying power and thus can sell cheaper but that's a hell of a price difference ...... you have to compete and most folks who are capable of doin an online search for parts will be more than capable of finding other sellers.	drcspy (146)

279430	2004-10-09 04:44:00	I actually like the layout, it's clean, simple & easy to navigate the way every good website should be. But as others have said prices aren't the most competitive (although not too bad compared to some) , there is no "about us" Like others I also wouldn't buy from a site that doesn't supply some names, faces & a physical location I could check out (most important) As previously mentioned the range isn't huge, it's the type of online store I would expect to see attached to a Retail or PC Repair business & is more of a brochure than a serious online trader enterprise There are many well established online stores around now & you have to be very competitive to stay alive.	45South (4769)
279431	2004-10-09 04:47:00	oops, thanks Stu, I had a look around obviously not well enough. The "Contact us" should be changed to "About us" as that is standard & what people are used to	45South (4769)
279432	2004-10-09 05:05:00	Looks like I have a lot of work to do. I will lower my prices to be competitive to the point of prices slightly above Pricespy. Will also change Contact Us to About Us and add information about the company. Yes, it is a registered NZ company, but since people have doubts I will have to show it better I guess. I will soon buy a .co.nz domain too, which will help, although Supercheappc.biz is NZ and nobody has a doubt. It is served in NZ, so Google knows :P.	george12 (7)
279433	2004-10-09 05:08:00	Pricespy.co.nz is where you wanna be!	Chilling_Silence (9)
279434	2004-10-09 05:19:00	For some of the products not enough detail is given as to what model number the item is. Example: the monitors. You need to give the exact model number as you can't tell whether your ones are the top or bottom of the range for each brand. Same with some of the other products. ;-)	Fire-and-Ice (3910)
279435	2004-10-09 06:35:00	Nothing wrong per se with your website (quite like the restrained and tidy layout myself) but 1. The prices are way out of touch in some cases. VMax 512MB USB2.0 Flash Drive for $295 I can purchase the equivalent item online from a nz company for 103 +gst or visit a shop in Hamilton and buy a 1 gig flash drive for 190 +gst. 2. Amazing value! Burn CDs at 52x, Play DVDs, and read cds at 52x all in one drive $102 It may well be amazing value but I have no idea as to what brand and model it is. 3. Motherboard brand selection is sparse. Nothing wrong with asrock motherboards (I rather like them) but not all people are like me and need a wider variety . IMHO you should have a minimum of three brands with a highend/ lowend mix. one more observation You have made a good start but as others have said its a cramped market. I buy an obscene amount of hardware every year for personal and proffessional reasons but I seldom buy online. I use websites to research determine prices and physically go to those places if they can supply the product I wan't at prices I like. I have no time for online resellers not because of any prejudice but I just like face to face contact. Anything I buy online is only purchsed from sites that I have physically visited. keep at it :-)	the highlander (245)
279436	2004-10-09 07:19:00	> We are 5th on Google for "Jgih" (most common search > for us). But who is going to search for jgih if they are looking to buy computer parts?	whiskeytangofoxtrot (438)
279437	2004-10-09 08:26:00	Generally people searching for computer parts get to us through our targeted ad on google. For example, some taken from the list of Google searches that made up the referrer are: ms powerpoint software 3 4.4 % jgih 3 4.4 % jg industries 2 2.9 % hard drives 2 2.9 % msi mp3 player for sale in nz 2 2.9 % computer 2 2.9 % pc monitors 2 2.9 % portable mp3 players stores in nz 2 2.9 % computer sale 1 1.4 % buy a computer 1 1.4 % software quotation 1 1.4 % laptops for sale second hand nz 1 1.4 % computer sales wellington 1 1.4 % laptops nz 1 1.4 % hardware 1 1.4 % iriver slimx imp-550 cd / mp3 player with ultraslim design 1 1.4 % computer store homepage 1 1.4 % computer sales nz 1 1.4 % computer accessories.nz 1 1.4 % hardware firewall 1 1.4 % can mac lcd screens be used with a pc 1 1.4 % secondhand joystick pc nz 1 1.4 % computer parts nz 1 1.4 % online computer vendor 1 1.4 % nz computer screens 1 1.4 % computer hardware retailers 1 1.4 % nz computer suppliers 1 1.4 % cheap pentium 4 1 1.4 % dell computer new zealand 1 1.4 % ibook memory 1 1.4 % ddr 400 1 1.4 % toshiba laptop 1 1.4 % monitors new zealand 1 1.4 % solar pc 1 1.4 % pc dealers 1 1.4 % software adobe acrobat 6 nz 1 1.4 % buy desktop pc 1 1.4 % laptop computers new zealand 1 1.4 % cheap computer 1 1.4 % computers 1 1.4 % pc pad 1 1.4 % made to order computor 1 1.4 % auckland pc shops 1 1.4 % desktop computers 1 1.4 % vmware software supplier christchurch new zealand We don't rely on actual search rankings because our search rankings are bad (PR 0). We only have links on two other sites. I would like to change this actually. If anybody is interested in a link exchange (your link goes under "Affiliates" on the left bar, along with thestagegame.com and dwnz.com). I realise the prices are bad, they didnt used to be but they got out of date. I am updating them all right now. George	george12 (7)
