    Would you still offer 15% off if you couldn't get all the components due to stock levels?

        If that's the case, no chance of getting a full rig from one store - especially during a sale.
        Built ~5 rigs from MSY, never once was able to get all components in one hit, and none of those times were during a sale.

          Voting suggests no.
          Cheapest prices with genuine customer service would make you guys the standard for all other stores to be compared to.
          Customers would be a lot easier to deal with too, which would make life easier for staff as well :)
          We both benefit in that relationship.

          Most frustrating thing is people had bad experience with stock levels so we would like to confirm if you have stock before pop in. But no one ever answer the phones, then that is bad. If you cannot afford extra staff to answer the phone, get a system so people can check and reserve stock for a few hours before the trip.

      I have no issue with the site. I would say that the store is for people who know what they are looking for, and if that is the case, the parts.pdf is all you need. I do however, have an issue with calling for stock and general customer service. It really seems to depend on the person serving you if you get decent service or not.

    Now that I think about it, it may be a bad time to buy

    CPU : Coffee Lake releases a week from now

    GPU : Overpriced right now due to bitcoin miners (though you can just buy a CPU with integrated GFX)

    SSD : Overpriced right now due to lack of materials

    RAM : Overpriced right now for same reason as SSDs

      They are currently offering the building service for $70. If they teach the customers how to do it themselves, they lose that potential $70.

        Some people want to build it themselves but are not confident of their own skills to try it alone, and it ends up being a barrier to entering the PC gaming market. computer shops like MSY do PAX for marketing anyway, not because it's highly profitable. They will sell so many more components anyway for everyone in the workshop who needed to buy parts on the spot who might have ignored all the hardware for sale in the glitz of PAX otherwise

    (CPU+RAM+HD+PSU+CASE)

    Thanks

    • Store Repbeetran @ MSY Technology on 17/08/2017 - 10:57

        Thanks for the reply, It is still in the box, but what it has to do with opening the box, I'm asking the discount for remaining items considering I already bought the mobo. I will check the store anyway, Moreover it doesn't cost them 15% on motherboard which otherwise would considering it is just sold week before. Thanks

    Hi Hung,
    I just bought motherboard, CPU, ram, had, psi & case from your store 3 days ago. And at that time I already saw the post on Facebook said 15% to build your own PC. And I called the phone no. on Facebook but no one answer my call. Then after a long queu I asked the staff in store they said they don't know. And even on Facebook the people comment no MSY staff reply the post. I'm rush to get a new pc, and the staff in store was inpatient to answer my question. I think maybe it's just gimmick at that time.
    How come it's now 15% after 3 days!!!! I don't believe the store staff don't know this promotion on last Saturday.

    • Charlotte123 on 15/08/2017 - 23:17
