Elky Posted November 6, 2007 Report Posted November 6, 2007 (edited) At SCL Online, we pride ourselves on our very high standards. Not only do we build every one of our PCs to a very high quality, we also keep our prices low, providing unrivalled value for money. We want to prove to you that we are one of the most competitively priced PC builders around. We want you to tell us what you have been buying or are looking to buy so we can show you just how competitive we are by comparing our prices to your current supplier. We are offering a free Flash RAM pen drive / memory stick to the first 500 applicants who email in with the specifications of the PCs for the last IT room / classroom they kitted out or for any upcoming requirements for PCs they have. Once you email us these details, a member of our sales team will email you back with a quotation based on the specification, using top brand components and the latest technology. That's all there is to it. We aren't expecting you to suddenly put your PC business our way but we hope it will give you an indication of just how good we are and also help to ensure you are getting the best deal out of your current supplier. Further to this, if you email us with details of PCs you are looking to purchase in the near future, we will even arrange for a sample PC to be built to your specification and sent out to you so you can check out the build quality for yourself. With our high build quality and very low failure rate, you will not be disappointed Any questions then please don't hesitate to ask.

Geoff Posted November 6, 2007 Report Posted November 6, 2007 Er... my last deployment didn't include any PCs. Just thin clients. Do they count?

Elky Posted November 6, 2007 Author Report Posted November 6, 2007 We bought some NECs, Petium 4 3.0GHz, 1Gb RAM 80Gb HDD Slim Chassis OnBoard Gigabit Lan NO CD DRIVE Front USB & Audio Win XP Pro 4 Year Warranty = £310 each Hi Tim Please can you email me with your details so we can provide the pen drive and I'll also send you over a quote Many thanks
Elky Posted November 6, 2007 Author Report Posted November 6, 2007 For what its worth though Tim, I think you paid a very high price for those PCs. Our equivalent, using the Pentium E2140 which replaced the Pentium 3GHz would cost you £230.00 including the Windows XP Pro. Ours do have a 3 year warranty rather than a 4 year and obviously isn't NEC but at least you have a comparison If you send me an email - [email protected], we can sort out offer details for you Many thanks

DSapseid Posted November 6, 2007 Report Posted November 6, 2007 Just recieved me email with the quote in it and its a whole £100 cheaper per unit 8O
Elky Posted November 6, 2007 Author Report Posted November 6, 2007 Just recieved me email with the quote in it and its a whole £100 cheaper per unit 8O Hopefully that means you will consider asking SCL to quote on any future purchases
Scruff Posted November 6, 2007 Report Posted November 6, 2007 £100 per unit ? you were obviously being ripped off beforehand, the margins on PC hardware are too slim for those kind of saving otherwise
DSapseid Posted November 7, 2007 Report Posted November 7, 2007 Just recieved me email with the quote in it and its a whole £100 cheaper per unit 8O Hopefully that means you will consider asking SCL to quote on any future purchases Yep i will be
DSapseid Posted November 7, 2007 Report Posted November 7, 2007 £100 per unit ? you were obviously being ripped off beforehand, the margins on PC hardware are too slim for those kind of saving otherwise I believe so, they were bought by my predessor and we bought them, 4 new servers, wireless, them migrating us accross to new network all at once.
Elky Posted November 7, 2007 Author Report Posted November 7, 2007 We have had a very good response to this and lots of pen drives are on their way out to anyone who responded. We've decided to extend this offer now to the first 100 so plenty more pen drives available people! We'll look forward to hearing from more of you! Many thanks
