To Be honest, I am in the PC-repair and sale business.
I liked PC parts before Mr Christ...i mean, Dr. Christ if you so please, decided he needed a bigger house in Conn. I can't hate him on that but the business is strictly on-line for the most part.
PC Parts was/is a warehouse like parts facility for those of us who tinker, rebuild, or want a reasonable used PC. Now many of the staff know very little about computers. Ironic you say? This may have changed since 2003 but they went from a full service company to a global EBay enterprise.
To be honest, they do have some of the best prices on used equipment. But you better know what you want and have a credit card because you cant just drop by and browse the "store". Most of the business transactions are done via the web or phone/fax.
Many times you'll be better off bidding on their stuff on eBay and picking it up at the Paxton St location. Otherwise go to one of the computer shows that they are at and save $$$. But you have to know what you want. read more
