MSY has better prices and better after sales support than Umart.. and I used to be a Umart fanboi until I saw the light.

Can you order with CC's without going in-store ? Thats one thing that s***s me about CA and Umart

ive ordered my last couple of boxes from msy, and they just put them together, and you rock up and pay to collect

i used the store at morningside and its good, never have to wait long (certainly not as busy as umart)

i even got to deal with a caucasion once when i was in tehre

What kind of statement is that ? I am just saying it doesn't instil confidence, nor make finding / ordering (canyou?) stuff easy.. I thought umarts site was ugly

1. I've seen 12 year olds with better html skills
2. As a marketing aid for selling computer related stuff one can only assume their efforts for advertising their products online reflects their customer service, business processes and professionalism.

Don't get me wrong, I hate umart more than the average person, but I just don't see these people as a valid competition because of:

While their website is rather s*** I think their location is good, at least for me.

Easy parking is the main attraction.

MSY are less than a 2min drive from where I live and for small purchases, I buy from them.
If I need a new mouse or a spindle of DvDs their comparable prices and close location make a convenient stop and go store.
But I still get my bulk orders from Umart, it's just so much easier to plan a pc out and order it with Umart's website.
Like it's been said in this and previous MSY threads, their site is just such an appalling poor quality webpage, they'll never be taken seriously like the umart is.

My next rig is certainly going to be an MSY special. For smaller items I just go over to umart.
