Thats their price list.
And they need a web designer really badly, usually people of asian decent are great with P.C's and whatnot.

Not trying to be racist by the way.

I'm not sure if the post items or have online shopping but as a walk in shop they are great.

Im not sure about anywhere else but here at the pascoe vale branch they dont speak the greatest english, so if you were to go into the shop, have your stuff written down clearly. :P

Or use your finger, that works aswell lol

MSY are cheap, but you compromise on service, aftersales service, and can be difficult with warranty claims.

Even wholesale from CWS can pretty easily be beat by MSY. I deal with them a fair bit not happy atm they double ordered one thing and 'forgot' another.

Normal prices aren't the cheapest. But they usually have some good specials.

I actually stopped using wholesalers for my business because so many net sellers match the price anyway. PC shop's don't make money out of hardware sales. Could never justify being stuck to a few wholesalers with small choice and all with different sometimes ridiculous terms.

I'll always undercut a shop because I work from a home office anyway. And I can't keep up with the work either.

The NUMBER 1 SITE imho.

http://au.pricespy.biz

Second is:
www.msy.com.au
The best time to visit their Auburn store is around 4pm. Sometimes I've had to wait up to 40 mins for service.
