Default Re: Beware: Dont get cheated.

hey thanks for taking my suggestions into account!!
make this a sticky!!!

i must add some more shops -- in chunam lane you have loads of shops that stock old hardware and sometimes pass it off as new----example--modera electronics or some shop beside it----i took a friend along once to get a good deal on a dvd writer this was way back in 2005.the shop keeper produced a oem sony dw model which was in a sony dru-810 box and insisted we buy it.and his price was way cheaper than what any other shop would've sold us a dvd writer for.
any buyer off to spend their hard earned money must be aware of what they are buying just because the box is sealed doesn't mean you have the genuine parts in it.even you can seal a box with cello-tape.
be careful if you are a noob---head straight for mahavir computers/prime abgb.safest and the best places to buy hardware at good prices.(for the people who don't know--mahavir has 2 guys in it -- ask for kalpesh jain(fat guy!)rajesh jain(thin guy) prime abgb has meenal and a short stout guy -swapnil at the desk---sometimes gulbir does grace the shop with his presence---energetic sardar who could convince anyone into buying anything!! knows a lot.)
