A few readers on another post on this blog have commented narrating their bad experience with ‘cost to cost’ computer shop at Nehru place.
Here is a quick list of grievances against them: autocratic behavior, bad customer support, take-it-or-get-lost-we-don’t-care attitude of staff. I myself witnessed some of these on a recent visit to the shop. Many users reach this blog when they Google ‘cost to cost’ computer shop (Nehru Place). Hence this update.
It is not unusual finding computer/hardware shops in Nehru Place displaying arrogance when they have high volumes in sales. Cost to Cost is just one example.
Computer Empire shop (especially on the floor above the main shop) has very amenable service. Another very good shop is ‘Vipin Imports’ (meet the Bengali ‘dada’ there who would earnestly help you) in the same lane as Cost to Cost and Computer Empire.
Big shops like Cost to Cost and Computer Empire are dominating the business in Nehru Place. It is high time the place is more democratized. So try finding good smaller shops with bigger hearts and shop from them.
Do leave shop names in comments. Enjoy the wholesale rates at Nehru Place while it lasts as the market is in the hit list of United States of America (an official US Trade Representative, USTR, report brands it as one of the most’ “notorious IT markets)
They don’t care if u buy or don’t buy, it is like wholesale sabzi mandi. As they r giving u cheaper rates so they don’t believe in convincing u to buy. Whether their products r genuine, one doesn’t know.
Its a best place to buy computer , harware or software. But you should go to a genunine dealer.
Just a warning for nehru place shoppers. I visited this shop by the name of Blue Waves Infotech Pvt. Ltd. for laptop repair. They changed the original parts of my laptop. When we confronted him, he misbehaved. Please don’t go to this dealer guys.
cost to cost give u best price
hi, i went to Costtocost yesterday, they were selling usa imported branded laptops -Dell and HP. configuration and everything was super. Price was cheaper then indian market by 4-5k. Reason these were imported from USA. it was imported, guarantee / warranty was not given by company (ie Dell or HP)but it was carry in warranty given by Cost to cost. Can you please guide should i buy these laptop. Though these are branded, but and generally work without any problem. Should i go for this. should i purchase this. Can any body guide me?
@ Rahul
dont buy those.. i hv seen them… it can be really hectic to get any help from costtocost or anyone even the manufacturer in case of imported laptops.. in most of the cases they r grey market products…
rate to rate is a better shop… on the same lane as new c to c ..
square infotech is also a good deal. they are very good and have effective services…
THE BEST DEALER OF NEHRU PLACE.. I THINK..IS.. “DIRECT ADVANTAGE”. THE PRICE IS BETTER THAN COMPUTER EMPIRE AND COCT TO COST. AND BEHAVIOUR OF IT’S CARETAKER..AND OTHER GUYS ARE ALSO GUD.
Best way to buy any part of any Laptop/Desktop is CAP (www.computersandpart.com) CAP stands for Computers and part
helo, i want purchase computer parts from nehru place, pls tell me which shop give best service
Hello, cost to cost is the best place to buy computer and its peripherals at most competitive price. They have transparent way of business i.e. open price list, no bargain, prompt delivery service, volume sale etc.
That is the reason Cost to Cost dominate the market in my personal views.
