Seeing how this is the festive season & the time to be merry I thought I'd create a thread about positive online hardware PC shopping experiences.

Positive contributions only please. If you had a bad experience...kindly create your own thread & feel free to elaborate about it in said custom thread.

oh and kindly specify roughly when your interaction happened...a good shop 5 years ago might not be good now.

Seeing how online SA shops seem to go in & out of favour I think it'll help if people can see where others are currently having good luck...

Rebeltech - Good experience 2 years back. Very good pricing. Dealt with the owner directly & he certainly is on the ball. No issues.

Wootware - Myself...excellent pricing and best communication so far (2 years back). Got similar feedback from family I pointed towards them. (1 month back).

Joker...back then I asked The Joker for advice on a PC build...and he provided high quality advice for free.

Honorary mention - PCint and prophecy...dealt with them years back. Got the goods as promised - no complaints.

Raru.co.za - Bought my PS4 headset from them a few months ago and they were the cheapest source and delivered really quickly. A colleague bought a graphics card from them the other day and they were ~R400 cheaper than competitors and delivered to outlaying area in good times.
 
Takealot also has great specials on hardware.

I also just got the following discount codes in an FNB newsletter:

Takealot:
R100 off on R250 purchase
Code: V1QF-FUK-

Kalahari.com:
R100 off on R250 purchase
Code: visa100

loot.co.za:
R50 off on R250 purchase

General online shopping
Takealot delivers very fast, plus the ordering from the mobile app qualifies for free delivery.
Bought some stuff under R150 on the app and they deliver jut as fast as buying stuff over R250 on the website.
All my orders this year got delivered next day! :D

Loot is my alternative to takealot for general online items. The only downside they don't have a Gauteng warehouse, so delivery can take up to 3 days.

PC specific shops:
Rebeltech is good, purchased my CPU and Gfx card from them.
If Rebeltech would offer free delivery on purchases over x amount, that would be superb.

Titan-ice is my go-to shop for pc bits and pieces, such as cables, screws, fans etc.. In addition to online payment options, they also offer cash on pickup.
I can pop by them on the way home.

I agree placed 4 order in the past two week would be cool for free delivery over x amount. Worth mention Evetech for NZXT stuff and Noctua coolers friendly and quick turnover time.
