I was just kind of curious how much everyone here charges customers to build them a PC. Im just curious if I am charging to much or not charging enough.
Everyone that knows my computers say I dont charge enough but when I shoot a new customer a price their look makes me think I'm charging too much.
I do what most everyone else here does and I buy 100% of my parts thru Newegg and charge a $50 US dollar labor fee and thats it. I install the OS of their choice and download all of the current updates at the time of build. I add just enough free software(Avira,Mozilla,Adobe Reader..etc) to get them going. I dont overclock for anyone but myself or my closest friends so the parts I buy have to be fast from the start.
So am I charging too much or not enough??
With todays economy I am having a hard time meeting everyones budget while building a PC that I can trust. Most everyday people think that a PC is a PC and they can pick up a $300 Emachine at Walmart. They also do not understand that mating the right chipset with the right processor along with memory gains you every ounce of speed you can squeeze.
I am just curious how others go about this.
Any thoughts??
