The Best Price
We get you the best price two ways: shipping the product direct to you and our Price Comparator spreadsheet. When you have finished deciding on the parts you want for your system, we compare them among the common vendors. Our spreadsheet highlights the lowest price for each item among all vendors, then computes the lowest-priced highlighted items per vendor to calculate your exact cost with shipping. There's no item overhead as you pay only the consultation fee (which can be applied to any of of our services). Let Digi-Detox do the legwork and save you money! Here's a shot of the Price Comparator in action:
