PC DIY

As Ian said, it’s where the old MSY was. I actually walked in here without noticing that the brand had actually changed. Mainly because the service was as good as always. If you know what you’re looking for the staff will serve you quick smart and answer any queries with the up most knowledge.
If you don’t know what you want, they’ll help you out the best they can. I’ve had PC built here and bought parts to built myself. They’ve always been more reliable than ordering off the net.

This place has slightly better service than MSY. Of course, MSY has basically non-​existant customer service.
I do occasionally drop in here when I’m after something, but this place is pretty much always my second choice. I’ve found (and maybe you’ll find differently) that MSY is that little bit cheaper, and I can put up with not having my hand held by staff when I’m looking for computer stuff. But there are times when my first choice doesn’t have exactly what I need, and that’s why I end up here.
Ian’s reminded me that it needs to be emphasised that you should never, ever go to places like Harvey Norman or Dick Smith’s for HDMI cables. Not that long ago, a metre of HDMI cable at those places sold for over fifty bucks. Now they’re down to around thirty bucks. At the same time that they were fifty bucks at other places, I bought a three metre HDMI cable here for about fifteen bucks.
Good shop. Like it. Prefer MSY, but this place is good too.

This is where MSY used to be located before they moved up the street to a larger location, however PC DIY follows up with the service MSY provided before, which was good tech at a good price.
What many people don’t know is that if you’re looking for cheap laptops, monitors, cameras, computer parts and accessories, the first place you look shouldn’t be in JB Hi-​fi or God forbid, Myer??? It should be in places like PC DIY or MSY where you can get things for up to 20 to 30 percent cheaper, depending on what you buy.
The last time I was there I was looking for a HDMI converter cable which I managed to get one for a significantly cheaper price compared to if I had gone to the likes of Officeworks, which is another store I do love but for different reasons.
If you’re looking for custom solutions, you can talk to the people in the shop and they will help you design a computer that suits your needs and price tag. Walking in, you’ll be greeted by a large front desk where there is usually at least one shop assistant.
They may not seem super friendly to some people who come in for the first time, but they are helpful and straightforward. Most of the people who go into the shop usually know what it is they are looking for and they tend to expect those kinds of customers that walk up to the desk and simply ask them for the component or tech that they are looking for.
Whenever I’m looking for cheap good quality tech, the two places I will think of are PC DIY and MSY.
