Why dont some items not have a price?

I deleted a few from the list because they didnt have prices.

So now I go back to the list and pay attention to the price as lots in the list dont even have a price. I get why they do that now.

A tiny hassle, I was perplexed.

 

Is this a good way of choosing a product - What I do is filter down to 4 or 5 starts then choose appropriately.

Then I look at how many reviews were written, and the price for each item. I notice the cheaper prices have more reviews, but this is a company pc.

 

I hope I didnt select anything badly.

Because it most likely doesn't have enough data for the prices and or the product is new, just check what website or gives for pricing and do simple maths.p

What is the most reliable hard drive, above average pricing.

PCPP has to hotlink to websites and pages that have the price listed. If the source isn't available, no price or presence on the item's page.

If it doesn't have a price it hasn't been added, or it's so old that it no longer exists. With most items it's the latter, not the former.

WD Blue would be what I'd get for an HDD.

some items are so old that nobody sells them anymore so they don't have a price while others are just out of stock on all the stores listed so it doesn't get a price.

not a very good way tbh, these aren't professional reviews, half the time you get the idiots going "that one item was DOA once, the entire brand must be rubbish" and gives them the absolute lowest rating while the other half has buyers giving the best available rating simply because it worked for a few seconds. that's how you get explosive power supplies like this coolmax unit with lots of 5-star reviews and a high end psu with negative reviews. look at professional reviewers instead.
