** Payday Specials on Tuesday **

[RawZ]

Hi Guys,

As Tuesday should be the final day for most people to finally get paid, from 10am on Tuesday morning we will be doing our usual payday specials per category all the way till 6pm!

While this thread serves as a heads-up, this is also the chance to throw ideas at me and pt- with what you'd like to see on Tuesday!

Post away! :thumb:

[wonderlust]

[ongy2k3]

Do it in categories (i.e. this Tuesday could be Motherboard, next Tuesday could be Processors). Would help sustain activity, instead of smash & grabbing on one day.

[Iaink]

maybe some 1TB F3s, 140mm + 120mm silent fans, DDR2 LGA775 motherboard of some description and corsair H50 would be ideal :) also maybe some really cheap small 2.0 speakers for me to dismantle and mount in my D.I.Y all-in-one PC, cheers :D

[Slimbellio]

AMD 6950's/6970's pwetty pwease.

[DoubleTop]

I don't recall ever seeing much in the way of networking devices and/or upgrades on Super. They are a nice thing to upgrade, doesn't involve a system change and could go quite well.

What's available in terms of homeplugs etc, with more internet connected devices in the home, sell on that basis :)

DT.

[asha1]

60GB SSD pleeaaaassee :knock:

[Old Bob]

Damn ... day dreaming again! Sorry :redface: :cop:

OR £20 of that 5850 black edition ;)!
I want to buy it at that £90 price but stupid exams mean I can wait. Make me a price so I can't :p!

[aspdend]

120Gb SSD, homeplugs and maybe NAS boxes

[Mr. Pineapple]

SSD :D

[cruciate]

My vote goes for (and these have already been mentioned - thanks for the original posters):

8GB RAM kits. (Something middle of the road like 1600MHz rather than just 1333Mhz please)
NAS boxes.
Powerline stuff. (Which I don't think you have on the site anyway so I am not going to expect you to sell off your stock!)

[bulldog147]

I7 2500K or I7 2600K with MSI P67A-GD65 and Noctua D14 bundle with 8Gb ram with overclocked @ 4.7GHz

[zxh800]

Fractal R3 for peanuts please! Or am I being too demanding lol.

[cactushead]

Fractal R3 and Corsair H60 or Corsair H70 please!

[Col]

I think it'd be good to see a nice, surprising, non-coputer related item up for grabs, just like the giant lollipops a while back. Maybe this time, to celebrate the World record, something Jaffa cake related?

Or one of those giant inflatable hammers, or an Airfix kit of Aria's motorbike.

:idea: Idea:
Put an item on the site called a goodybag at a set price and chuck together a load of random stock into the bag up to the value of the goodybag price.

[ongy2k3]

You could put a novelty item up (like the lollipop mentioned above) with a price of £5, then put this towards your charity fund?

[DarkStrider1987]

I want an Aria t-shirt!

Or at least a mousemat or something.

[Gunslinger]

While this thread serves as a heads-up, this is also the chance to throw ideas at me and pt- with what you'd like to see on Tuesday!


due to the fact i can't get my machine fixed... just offer me a whole pc LOL


as i'm likely to still be offline (yes its driving me nuts) i'm likely to miss out on these

[dukebolo]

I would like to see some sort of case/psu combo deal like a Coolermaster Storm Scout + branded psu (for gaming)

[fur34]

8gb ram kit

[TaxMonkey]

Gaming keyboard and mouse please:D

[antz90]

most people work in the week, so the only people who have a chance at getting these deals are the people who are at home :(. weekend deals wudda been better for most i reckon.

[leonbi]

Have some GTX570 for a good price please, I'm looking to buy one and noticed that the price has gone down a lot this week! ;)

[ongy2k3]

That's why, from a comp[any's point of view, it's best to do it during the week. I imagine this place is swarming on a weekend, meaning more discounted products sold = less profit.

[rockermark]

I would like to see 900w+ modular psu and a Silverstone Raven RV03 pweeze

[wraithchild]

Nice!

Power supply's and another awesome 5850 deal please!

[Danio]

Would love an i5-2500K bundle, P67 or Z68 would both be ideal. :)

Mobo with Crossfire pleease!

[antz90]

[RawZ]

GPUs live http://forums.aria.co.uk/showthread.php?t=64975

[Todge]

I'm edging away from a new case simply because I really don't need one but I'll be purchasing a new Z68 board today for sure as my P67 has to go back and I'm not waiting around.

If only i'd been available for the forum in April this would be a much easier decision lol.

EDIt: nice set of GPU deals Rawz.

[gilljoy]

Cant find anything else to add to my motherboard order :( I like lots of new toys though!

[Kaitaki]

Any CPU deals today?

i5-2500K Retail would be very nice:D

[Ferriman]

keep dreaming on that Kaitaki :-P

[Anthgaskell]

Hmmm, no AMD motherboards or processors?

*Saves cash in expectation of Bulldozer* :p

[niceguyrichy]

well i'm reasonably happy :)
and so long as the 600W Be Quiet! handles my 2 power hungry monsters and lets me OC a little, i'll be very happy :D

really wish i had an excuse to buy that XL though.... but i can't, i've got cases coming out of my ears here :(

[superlattice09]

*Saves cash in expectation of Bulldozer* :p

Same unless 1100 sells at £100 (EPIC?):p

Added after 14 minutes:

I think that's all specials for today.
BD is only a week from now, a good cool off period ei. :)

[Old Bob]

What would be nice would be a no VAT day on everything ... aria would still earn a profit too as more people would buy things they would normally hold off on, but here's dreaming.

But they would still earn a profit irrespective of profit margins.

And how would they do that if they sell it at a loss?

Ermm, I'll let you think about that one ;) I don't need to spell it out for you and leave it at that.

[Anthgaskell]

It looks like I was right about the Bulldozer. Save my cash until I figure out if my current AM3/880 chipset will cope with bulldozer then upgrade from the 555 I'm running now.

[andyn]

I think my brain just melted.

[superlattice09]

Only a few 800 chipset mobos are AM3+ ready.
See http://www.aria.co.uk/Products/Components/Motherboards/AMD+AM3%2B+Ready/

I certainly hope this is just appetiser. 10am to 6pm could probably mean the sale's valid period. Prove me wrong and bring on the main course and desert!! Aria :D

[Todge]

Yeah I thought about making a nice long reply but frankly I couldn't be arsed.

Hopefully they've been saving the AMD & other good stuff until later in the day.

[kidd78]

Wish they post up the stuff altogether then I can put it in my basket and pay. Have to wait for each item coming on, some of us have lifes outside the pc/web. :P

[MatthewMcEwan]

Just bought a nice kingston 96gb SSD and a Corsair AX750W PSU, thanks Aria!

[Robin]

Can you give us an example of how this would work?

[Todge]

Can you give us an example of how this would work?

Quite clearly margins in components have gone up considerably since I last saw a distributors price sheet. Like 4x as much.

[lucas4]

Can you give us an example of how this would work?

i think he means that for example....

aria buy their product for £50 (inc/ex VAT), sell at £100 (inc/ex VAT).
if they sold ex VAT, they would sell for £~£83.30
in which case they would still make £33.30 profit.

i think thats what he means :)!

[Robin]

if only margins were that good...

[lucas4]

if only margins were that good...

i know :D!
id start my own component retailer business from my shed and bedroom :chuckle:

[kidd78]

Just ordered motherboard and Processor, was going to wait for Ram and corsair h70 cooler but gotta go out. Oh well

[superlattice09]

perhaps the H80 is better than H70?

if they sold ex VAT, they would sell for £~£83.30

i think thats what he means :)!

Nice margins. I would guess it would be something like this (although even that margin may be too optimistic):

Aria buy for £100 + VAT = £120.00
Sell to the customer for £120 + VAT = £144

VAT is not included in a profit and loss so Aria's profit here would be £20

Doing a VAT free offer, if Aria were to sell for £120, that would be a nett figure of £100.00. Meaning Aria would be selling this at exactly the price they paid for it. No business can do that and survive.

A lot of people forget the VAT and that you do not include VAT in profit calculations.

[Aaron]

Ok - so what happens if we plug in the realistic margins of between 1-5% on those equations? Bearing in mind that those margins are on the price it costs to buy the item. It doesnt include other overheads such as business rates, wages, electricity bills etc..

[antz90]

are the payday tueday deals located under today only area on website?

[Aaron]

Have a look in the Deals section of the main forum :)

Exactly. Add in overheads and you will start to lose money very fast.

Here's an indication at 5%.

Aria buy for £100 + VAT = £120.00
Sell to the customer for £105 + VAT = £126

VAT is not included in a profit and loss so Aria's profit here would be £5

Doing a VAT free offer, if Aria were to sell for £105, that would be a nett figure of £87.50. Meaning Aria would be selling this at a loss of £12.50.
