| 872734 | 2010-04-04 07:09:00 | I find that it takes a time to locate the category ... Is a USB flash drive a computer component or a computer accessory? It say it is a computer component. PS. How you find out where the store is located? Do you have to open up every single product? |

| 872735 | 2010-04-04 07:30:00 | Is a USB flash drive a computer component or a computer accessory? Id say a USB drive is an Accessory. Reason: a component is part of a computer and would generally be required to run. A component is any smaller, self-contained part of a larger entity.Where as a USB drive is not required to run a PC. Price spy -- Never use it, but to locate a place, on the left clcik on the store name - then it gives the option for more info Ascent for example (www.imagef1.net.nz) - in the window that opens you get different tabs that show address, maps etc |

| 872736 | 2010-04-04 07:34:00 | I use it only when I know the name of the product, or part of the name. | nedkelly (9059) | ||
| 872737 | 2010-04-04 07:44:00 | I don't like the new design. It's like a maze. You open up a category by listing the models under brand. You click again to see who sells them but it doesn't say where they are if you are not familiar with them. All it say is "this store is located in NZ" if you click onto the NZ flag. If the shop display any details it might be a url at best, one also said the address but no ph number (area code) and just said CBD, I mean where CBD in the country :D I need to get to their website and go to about us or contact us just to know where they are ...... There is the google map that opens up .. but a lot of bandwidth just to find out what city they are in ... .:rolleyes: Makes me more just go to the few shops I know that are good, straight to their url. Anyway .. online shops are not that great pricewise for a USB flash drive, so I just go to DSE :p My first USB flash drive ever .. Even some reputable store were selling $500+ USB flash drives - Sheez must be good quality ;) |

| 872738 | 2010-04-04 08:48:00 | I have but two words to descibe the new design. Epic Fail. | xyz823 (13649) | ||
| 872739 | 2010-04-04 08:50:00 | The new design does have a few decent features, like the ability to narrow down items by certain specifications etc, and the fact you can look at price history and photographs. Apart from this, the old design was much better. |

| 872741 | 2010-04-04 11:00:00 | The old simple design was good, all they have done in redesigning it is make it complicated. It's also a bit of an eyesore and not very logically laid out. I used to use it quite a bit, to see which reputable store had the lowest price (I never buy from the really cheap ones, you're just asking for trouble), but now I hardly ever bother because it's such a mission to find what you are looking for. |
