Well he is smoking grass, that is definitely not a mid range PC.

Some IT guys are worse than car salesman.


I have bought quite a few things from them and never had an issue. I collect from them, they up the road from my office. :)

QFTMFT
Still haven't tracked me down a set of wheels yet let alone a new PC :P
 
Hai MissM :)

Wenz - argue with the guy - the pc I ordered with those stats I gave, was what Matrix offered as a mid level office pc - and I actually added the 2gigs of ram, since they only had it with 1.

lol wish i could tell him that... lol. he proceeded to tell me that you get High-end i5's for gaming and then you get entry level. he also said that this is a quote for the 2nd gen i5 and that he can give us a i3 but the price difference would be R550...

Cool. Do you know what brand/model of car you want?

Car hunting is a nightmare! 2nd hand car salesmen are so scaly, they claim to have a full service history on a car, then when u ask to have a look at the service book, you see that the car has missed its last few services. lol. Then when you question them about it, they say they do their own servicing at the shop.

Hahaha, yeah they don't do their '2nd hand care salesman' stereotype any favors :D
I'm looking at either an Audi or a Pajero that won't kill my bank account.

I am also looking for a new car and it is indeed a nightmare. Its actually annoying me so much I am about to just give up and keep my car.
 
My brother ended up getting an Audi A4 Exec Model (2004). Had 70 000 odd km's on the clock. Bought it for R77 000.

Bought privately through Gumtree...Yes, I know Gumtree is dodge, but my dad is very good when it comes to buying 2nd hand cars, so the Audi went for an AA Check and so far has not given any problems :)

Not bad, I've been trawling Gumtree for a while now and yeah you have to be careful. Private sales are generally OK, but then you get dealerships who pretend to be private sales. That pisses me off.

Comes with a 5 year / 150 000 motorplan + 6 year / 90 000 km service plan.

So yeah wouldn't be an issue for the first 5 years.
