Lock N Load 0 Posted July 3, 2002 I was looking around the internet for a new computer because i want to be able to play ofp better. I found some at pricewatch. Most of them were like 1.2ghz with 128mb ram for around $300. I thought that was a good deal so i might buy one when I get the money. Does it sound a little too good to be true? Has anyone else bought a puter from them? BTW here is the link : Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EveronVetsAgainstTheWar 1 Posted July 3, 2002 You're not buying it from pricewatch, you are buying it from a company pricewatch is listing. Be careful, do some background checking on your company. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is usually a fairly good idea of whether a company is trustworthy or not to be found there. Hope that helps... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FetishFool 0 Posted July 3, 2002 One company to watch out for is MDG. Maybe you should ask around in various forums to find a respectable computer dealer. Maybe a respected member of these forums will be able to sell you a computer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Placebo 29 Posted July 3, 2002 I can't speak for the USA pricewatch but when I tried the UK one I found it to be very expensive, you may be better having a search to see what other online retailers you can find, at least check the prices on as many as you can before you make an order Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EveronVetsAgainstTheWar 1 Posted July 3, 2002 The US pricewatch is definately NOT expensive. It lists very cheap prices. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Albert Schweitzer 10 Posted July 3, 2002 F*c*i*g awesome! Look at this: Germany / Pricewatch USA Asus P4T533-c Motherboard 240$ 166$ P4 2.2Ghz Processor 309$ 225$ Asus v8440/TD videocard 400$ 243$ ---------------------------------------------------------- 949$ 634$ Not so bad I guess What do you think about if I would buy some stuff, let them ship it to a friend of mine in the US and he sends it to me by mail. You think that is smart? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EveronVetsAgainstTheWar 1 Posted July 3, 2002 This may only be true of US Army mail, but when I lived in Germany it would take like 5 weeks for something to get to me. Is that the same for civilian mail from US to Germany? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
