Not heard of them myself but doesn't mean they aren't good. Site looks ok.0

been around a while and in general the main complaint people seem to have is their somewhat over optimistic build times, so as long as you do not need it in a real hurry they seem to be good, (also a mate of mine has had one from there and they are perfectly happy with it)Drop a brand challenge
on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)0 -
I have one built by them, very happy with it. It was worth spending time configuring what you want from a number of different starting points, some ways worked out cheaper than others. Don't know if that is still true.0

Dino PC offer a price match - so if you do an on-line check before ordering and find an identical spec PC cheaper - Dino WILL match this !!0

FYI I don't know how long the Valentine "offer" is on for; could end tonite I guess. Don't know anybody who has used the "price match" service - I assume this involves quite a bit of work by both parties!
I know one person who has had a pc from them; they advise 1. use credit card to order (obvious really in case they go bust) 2. preferably get a branded power supply. 3. build time may be slow.If you put your general location in your Profile, somebody here may be able to come and help you.0 -

I tried them on their price match about 6 months ago - I would have bought from them - except for the delay in getting back to me with a quote - they need to improve their response time !!
I was looking for a price match on an i7 3770k powered beast with 6Gb RAM, a 2Gb video card and 1.5Tb hdd - they bettered this - offering 8Gb RAM and a 2Tb hdd - and a better video card - and the price - a remarkable £500 !! both with Win 7 64bit
This was very cheap for the specs and I wish that I had pursued the offer - rather than buying the MEDION that I did get !!0
