    i just dont like it, no offence to the store as its nice and all, but the postage charge is cheeky, its just a way of uping the price.

    obviously i mean for when you collect from store, i understand for the cost of actually posting something, but when no posting is involved its just cheeky.

    it is cheeky but at the end of the day, the price is still cheap compared to other high street stores in central london.

    Hello,
    You will need to pay the balance on the coolect and reserve with the same card as you paid the deposit with when you called.

    Re: YOYOtech - Collect & Reserve

    When I built my 1st PC last year I just walking off the street into Yoyotech to buy a few bits and bobs.

    I was able to get all components matched to the web prices but I couldn’t believe I had to still pay the delivery charge!!! I understand that a central London store must have overheads and if that’s the case then why match web prices???

    Needless to say I haven’t shopped with Yoyotech since!!!

    Re: YOYOtech - Collect & Reserve

    The high street operation costs a lot more to keep running , when you add rates . heating , lighting and so on to the equation so the Yoyo Tech offer is good indeed . If you do not want to go into the store order online but if you wish to avail yourself of the ability to get a feel for your purchase then reserve and collect does seem to be handy for a planned buying decision .

    Re: YOYOtech - Collect & Reserve

    If I purchase a CPU on collect & reserve, I am able to come into the shop and select the one I want from all you have in stock? I'd be willing to pay the £5 extra if I can choose a good stepping...

    And that is it. CHEERZ
    Cool, I think this clarifies that I could pitch up off the street, look at CPUs and then decide on the exact one that I want before asking for the web price and paying the extra £5.

    Re: YOYOtech - Collect & Reserve

    Hello Yoyotech ... I have seen your new website and the first thing I checked was the CPU I'm looking for.

    It show as 10+ in stock: E8500 for £154.88 ... on Friday 29th February 2008.

    Can you confirm to me that it really it is in stock please ?
    If yes, I'd come immediately to collect by myself.

    The "Live help online" on your website doesn't work btw.

    Hello,

    That was not the correct price. We are still getting all the small issues sorted. An d I would guess that was one of them.

    Sorry about that.

    I'm gonna probably browse around Tott Court Road and see if I can find your store, as I'm down here on a summer placement

    Re: YOYOtech - Collect & Reserve

    Collect and reserve is very easy with Yoyotech but there's you have to pay the 10% of the total price online before you can collect in store..
    firstly im not quite sure if there is protection on the site, meaning people can hack the site and steal card details?
    and secondly its a bit of a hassle having to pay 10% online then paying the rest in store
