First check out the company you want to buy from.  Make sure you can find out their address and phone number.  Look up their company name on the web and see if there are any reviews.  Ideally buy from a company you have heard of, that has a good reputation.\n\nBefore you enter any personal details make sure your PC is safe.  You need an up to date firewall and virus checker.\n\nRead the terms and conditions before you buy.  Check out the returns policy and delivery schedule.  Maybe email them a question about a product to see if you get an answer.\n\nNext look at the security on the site.  There should be a little padlock in the corner of the page when you're on a secure page.\n\nMake your purchase and print out a copy of your order and keep it in a safe place.  Check it against your credit card bill when you get it.\n\nGood luck!

I suggest checking the local stores first.\n\nQuite often, you may be surprised what is available in your community owned retail stores.  I work at one that sells both new and used computers.  And I always laugh when somebody gets a "deal" online, and then brings it in to us for service.  More often then not, we offered something similar (if not identical) at an even lower cost.\n\nPlus if something goes wrong, your local store can help you.  Try that with something you buy on-line.

Let us know what the closest main city is for help.  I find local computer places are much better than the big box stores.  Especially price-wise.  Look in your yellow pages for a store that services computers and sells re-furbished ones.  They're the ones that will use the parts they have on hand instead of trying to sell you special order stuff, or a whole new computer for that matter.

try www.newegg.com or www.tigerdirect.com \n\nThey usually have the best prices.  Never buy computer components from ebay unless its a dealer.  I have heard tons of stories about people buying comp parts, and getting junk

You shouldn't have a problem finding a PC with that price.\n\nFor a gaming PC keep the following in mind\n\n1.)  Processor type/speed - You definitely want to go with at least and Intel core 2 Duo.  But AMD processors are better for gaming So look at a top end AMD processor like the 64 X2 or the 64 FX\n\n2.)  Video Card - Definitely go with a high end video card with built in memory.  G-Force,Nvidia and ATI are good choices.  The more memory on the card the better.\n\n3.)  Memory - Go with at least 1 GB of RAM 2 would be better\n\n4.)  OS - Make sure it's running Windows XP, Windows Vista is soon to be released but you may have compatibility issues with games as most are not currently certified for Vista.\n\n5.)  Before going with a major manafacturer do your research and get reviews, but do check them out.\n\n6.) Check this link http://www.pricewatch.com/computers they have a PC and server section and they tend to show the lowest prices for electronics.  Most places that you can get a PC - Windows OS do custom builds and can build it to your spec's.\n\n7.)  Make sure you get a good warranty

I just bought a laptop from http://www.ebay.com, but the only problem there is, you never know exactly what you are getting. If you use EBay and trust me and know what you are doing then that is a great place to go. \n\nhttp://www.dell.com\nhttp://www.hewlettpackard.com\nhttp://www.gateway.com
