keymaker Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 My fellow pc menyeks buyers...I'd recommend PC Options in Gilmore... kasi mas mababayung prices nila sa area.... Sila ang nagiging baseline (comparison) ng ibang mga shops sa area... And another thing....ALWAYS KEEP YOUR RECEIPT (FORWARRANTY CLAIMS) This is improtant if you get big ticker items like monitors hard drives printers etc etc... ok naman so far experience ko dun and i've been going there for more than 8 years... tama ba ???? have they been there for that long??? peace menyeks<{POST_SNAPBACK}> May website ba ang pc options?

xycho_g Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 wala ata silang website...kung gusto mo...try visiting pcx.com.ph tapos halos same naman prices nila e...it differs lng by mga 50-200 pesos...pero usually same prices nila... kpag wala sa pcx, i go to pc options...and vice versa...

thirteen Posted September 14, 2005 Share Posted September 14, 2005 usually you can find what you need either sa PC Options, PC Express, or Villman. Villman pinakamahal sa tatlo, PC Options is usually the cheapest. Downside is after-sales service. Be prepared to waste a day at PC Options just to get your PC fixed. PC Express has really bad warranty support, takes weeks before they replace a defective product (unless the product dies on you within 3 days, then they automatically replace it).My advice when buying a new PC is to buy from a nearby shop. That way, kung may problema, madali ipaayos. Kung add-on peripherals (like scanner, printer), PC Express ka na since marami silang branches. Quote Link to comment

scr3wdriv3r Posted September 19, 2005 Share Posted September 19, 2005 pc options. nakakainis yung ibang shops sa gilmore though, di nila pinapakita yung stock until tapos ka na magbayad... Quote Link to comment
keymaker Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 Which shop has the widest selection of lcd monitors? Quote Link to comment
testosterone_blue Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 pc options. nakakainis yung ibang shops sa gilmore though, di nila pinapakita yung stock until tapos ka na magbayad...<{POST_SNAPBACK}> isn't it a downright infringement of your consumer right? concealing the merchandise ONLY AFTER you have shelled out your smackeros? some would even demand for a test drive of the unit coming from a sealed box. that way it minimizes the propensity of the dealers to sell second hand or slightly stressed tiems items.

testosterone_blue Posted September 21, 2005 Share Posted September 21, 2005 how about sa ghills?<{POST_SNAPBACK}> there arent that much forays of choices in greenhills like what they used to since the time na nasunog sila. personally, more than a pc potpourri, what i like about greenhills are the gorgeous chinese girls shopping their hearts out.

cheesekeso2004 Posted September 23, 2005 Share Posted September 23, 2005 http://www.tipidpc.com Best place to be plus, you'll find lots of items not even sold in our market and also learn a lot about pc's Gilmore:1. PC Options (daming tao)2. PC Express (Pangit ng warranty, to make the long story short, may mga gago sa technical nila, ang bagal pa ng warranty nila, took 2-3 months yung video card ko, and 6 months for my friends audigy2) Shaw/Taft:1. Risingsun (Mahal lang ng 50 pesos pero if you're talking about customer service, top notch, you can even ask them for items na wala sa ibang stores, they can have it for you in a day or two ) Quote Link to comment

But here is the killer, from my cousins. I have four cousins who knows nothing about computers, all of them are girls, so probably puro kikay lang ang alam. They bought a package pc sa PC Express Gilmore. Anyway, their pc kinda broke down in less than a year (still within warranty), since they weren't able to contact me, they didn't touch anything and they went straight to PC Express to fix it (Remember that all pc packages have a sticker in the side panel so that no one could open the side panel and tamper w/ the hardware, broken sticker = no warranty) When they arrive there, they gave the pc to a personnel, then pinasok sa tech nila, after just a few minutes daw, a tech personnel came out and said that their sticker is broken (huh?!? how da hell did that happened? E di nga ginalaw since takot yung 4 na yun) so they can't give free warranty and service, nakipagtalo pa, pero ayaw (since puro babae, malakas ata loob niya manggago), so they had to pay for the warranty AND the parts that was busted (almost 10k). So there, I never bought in PC Express after that.... geez.... people today will do anything for money. Kung nandun lang ako, I'll give a smackdown on those poor losers :grr: Risingsun still has the best warranty for me, as well as customer service Busted my Palit 6600gt (Overclocked it too much ) and they gave a replacement after only 30 mins And they were only around 50-100 pesos higher than pc options and express Quote Link to comment
