Hey guys so Ive decided to get the Acer Aspire V15 Nitro. Only problem now is that I dont know if I should get it from Computer Lounge or PB tech. Ive been to pb tech before and have experienced problems with their products even though they are a little cheaper than Computer Lounge. Can you guys give me pros and con from buy from both companies or just a suggest of where I should get it from?

Thanks

Computer Lounge generally has much better customer service I find. Probably give you less hassle if you need warranty support. You can try asking them to match (or at least reduce) their price -- they're very responsive via email.

When you say problems with PB Tech products, did you mean service? Since they don't make anything

I do a lot of business with both companies - both are good.

Given a choice I would use Computer Lounge - excellent service, very reliable.

This is a no brainer! My choice would be Computer Lounge!
