I am looking for a site to buy a new PC.

[c0ndexus]

Hello there! Recently, I realised that my PC is kinda trash and I wanted to get a new one. Do you know any sites that have good prices and can ship to Romania?? I was looking forward to Amazon, but then I saw the shipping prices... Do you guys have some sites that are trusted and you recommend?
Sorry for my bad grammar!!

Only one spelling mistake, and one missing verb (see corrections). Other than that, your grammar was perfect.

 

Unfortunately, I don't think I can help you. All I know is that on PCpartpicker, the only vendor for Romania is PCGarage. I cannot speak to their trustworthiness.

Thank you for correcting me! The thing is, here in Romania, the vendors add 100$-200$ to the item because they get them from other countries and by suming them up, it gets a little too expensive, but thank you for your response!

It was not a spelling mistake. America is not the world.

 

OP, surely amazon.de offers decent shipping to Romania?

This sent me on a learning journey. I didn't realize that Romania was in the EU, but not in the Schengen Area. Does this have to do with those hefty price increases?

It is a weird sport. I despise American football, and football culture. Fucking idiots... I played "soccer" as a kid.

Thank you! Most products have free shipping. I didn't realize there would be such a big difference!!

Right now is also an awkward time to build, there's a global supply shortage of GPUs, and there are problems even at the semiconductor level. It's got so bad that NVidia may re-introduce the RTX 2060 at nearly retail price. You might want to think about waiting a little longer before building.

Yes, I was looking because I will get the PC in a couple of months and hopefully the prices are lower. Besides, I wanted to get a RTX 30 series and since they are out of stock on most sites that offer a good price so I decided to wait.

No,it doesn't have anything to do with that,the EU is like a country with a lot of states in it - similar to the US in that regard.

The reason is that the PC market is highly competitive in countries like Germany and Spain,and the distribution in western Europe is good (a lot of stock and variety) and with a lot of official partners.

Romania on the other hand there isn't much competition,distribution is bad (not much stock) and not many official partners.

 

Official partners are the most important thing in the market:

They Import directly from the manufacturers and make sure that there is enough stock for their customers.

More partners = more options

Highly competitive partners lower prices,and provide good customer support in order to win more customers.

 

Germany and Spain are the best markets to buy components from,and not to mention that the Spanish market have a lot of made in Spain products that lower costs significantly,

Just don't buy Spanish Power Supplies,they are really bad.

Thanks for the info. I wasn't sure if there was a duty or tariff to ship some items to Romania since to my understanding there are still some border controls between Bulgaria, Croatia, Romania and the rest of the EU.

There are no duties or tariffs within the EU,only items that come from outside the EU are subject for duties or tariffs.
