Tips for safe hardware shopping

yes thats what i'm referring to. Fake chinese stuff which we never heard about.

Very Nice Info man..
this will surely help the new members..

yeah i did referred to one of your post.

i hope everyone out there will share their experiences here and esp. state the shop name.

thx...title changed
proofs are many but very less expose them anywhere.
you can dig TE threads, read on tomshardware or Google for the same you will get to know a lot

those asking for duplicates should blame themselves and not shop.
they are liable for their own acts.

+1 for good everyday example

dont know about McCanns never been there..
but yes the mentioned shops give proper bill and if by chance if they wont you can insist them and ask how to claim the warranty on the challan.

The one mahavir electronics i mentioned is the same you are talking. On second thoughts i think he would be giving the challan because it was an oem drive. So sony service center wont take it as happened to me when my sony dvd writer went bad. Anyways am about to buy a new dvd writer which shop would you people recommend. Should be giving the best price otherwise i might buy it locally here it sells around 1.2k.

mods:::::::::makes this a sticky!
change the thread title to------------don't get conned!!!!!!
people from other cities please post you images of hardware/names of dealers/previous misfortunes
educate people about the hazards of being miserly for a few hundred rupees.

mahavir electronics is good when ur good buyer of his he wil give u good products and good prize too
and another once prime agbg he haves what market dnt have. visit his place gezmo stuff wil be there. his daily trun over is around 1core other stores IN LR for month .

Faulty or who makes u fool is

Anyways, any proof that prompt computers sell duplicate items or cheated any customer

can we know how we have cheated any customer.

try mahavir electronics for it and it wil around 1.2k here to @ LR


I hate casstel world tat guy had big attitude problem

Hey im with bharat on this one. I have bought stuff from Prompt since the last 4 yrs and have never faced any problems. Infact i think they r quiet helpful to noobs in terms of service or advice. Cassette world too has been around since ages and i don't remember anyone complaining about them.

Does the guy who created this post have any proof?? Have you been cheated by anyone yourself or you just decided to create a post on a lazy Sunday?


ps: i am simply a customer and i don't have any personal connection with any of these stores but i am a businessman myself and i can clearly see the damage that can be caused by such reckless posts.....


Moderators should look into this very seriously

casste world
I have very much bad experience with it , i had bought intel D 2.8 with some other stuff and when he made the bill without the processor bill. and was giving bullshit reason for nt giving bill like vat has to be added and other stuff if u want proof i can give u the bill and challan for the same and u kne grey market stuff also there IN LR.
so

i made fool for myself and i own comapny for the hardware and networking stuff so i knw half of the store owners over there .

1s Point. when every u goes to his shop . in the middle where the white lcd is kept
he will hand over the printout palmplate with like this shop is old and blal bla bla try to make deal in short time. and grey products

dont be harsh dude. well you may be the lucky ones.

Some time back a friend bought a new system from promt and all was well until one day. He went to buy a graphic card and he was sold sm lower edition china made card at price much higher wherein if he had put extra 1000 wud have got higher edition card. Though he was a noob he was his regular customer but is this the way they helped him and that too then charged him like anything. The card seriously sucked in every game. He did went asking for replacement after 2 days but he was given a typical reason....oos time pr market rate high tha...WTF And on that day the price for that card was what it should be. In any market the cost wont fluctuate so much like 1200 bucks.

People even have -ve remarks about prime abgb at times and why not. he isnt god sent here to trade. right???

Cassette world is always in news for some thing or another so forget it.

and what you think i have no other work or what apart from creating such thread. Yes yesterday was Sunday and i wast drunk ( damn sure). I have no intentions of hurting anyone or to affect anybody's business.

Here everybody does business and there's both good n bad in it. Some of us will post his bad exp. about a shop and some others may oppose the same and post good about them. Every shop has its own story to tell. You opposed me and said good about the shop. Tomorrow you may oppose some other shops and people might oppose you.

After all its all pure business in the end.

Better wait and watch. After all it is an open discussion and everyone has equal right to speakbleh:

Its all getting more n more hot and interesting here..

but who makes all these fakes(proccys,mobos.......etc)?

dunno
may be made in india somewhere and packing of china

bought psu from prime twice paying 100 bucks more and it was doa. But still i get stuffs from them they are reliable and good in service.

we had bad experiences with casette world, prompt computers previously and also word fight with plug and play and samvik over pricing.

thanks mate to open such useful thread where we can discuss all this stuff.
