Just out of curiosity.
Just out of curiosity, it would be interesting to know how much some of you guys actually charge for the followings, and how much you are willing to go down to.
Reformatting and installing of OS.
Fault diagnosis.
Data Backup.
Software installation.
Internet setup at home.
Virus scan and removal.
and what ever else you would like to add.

anyone?
I worked in a private school, so all that AND SO MUCH more was covered in my salary.... even did big dollar repairs on boards/adapters/screens and charged only $25 which went to the end of year christmas party. are you thinking of setting up a bussiness or just comparing prices.
I think a flat rate per hour is the norm. although I am not sure anymore
If you feed ducks at a pond, chances are your bound to feed a goose or two without even knowing it.
Reformatting and installing of OS.local shop charges $70
Reformat, create partitions, install drivers..............$70.
I do it for a case of beer
Case of beer works for me too.
My fridge is always stocked, and yes if you are down my way you can drop in for one.
What happens if I press alt + F4?
I am just comparing prices, to see how every technician look at it in his own way, I just want to get an idea and see if I am ripping anyone off, LOL or are my prices fair compared to others.
Keep it coming guys, but I am definitely not doing it for a case of beer.
50 on the side
doin 1 now
no backup thnk #
clean install, drivers,throwing in the software
updated
goes ok for a compaq 2002
2-3 hrs
had worse
that's how much I charge, do you think my prices are fair? ofcourse prices drop when doing more than one thing though.Originally Posted by Aboulaly
Looks pretty reasonable across the board there Aboulaly.
As you say, the more tasks the progressively cheaper each addon job gets.
Best4less would be able to give some ideas here,
cheers
Virus scan and removal= $50-$80 includes 12 month Norton internet security 2009 <--- Norton piss that off and then not ripping them off ... use AVast or AVG ... Norton is bloatware that capable finding nothing ..

Mate I have tried AVG, it gave me problems on some pcs, I find the new 2009 norton to be heaps better than older versions, plus that's what most of the customers request anyway.
gotta agree with woodstock.....
Norton products are hopeless,
Try karparsky u can get it for even cheaper than norton and its alot bettr product.
Ok I'll give that a go, but other than that, you reckon my prices are fair?
No point getting out of bed for less than $100/hr
Reality is an invention of my imagination.
ಠ_ಠ
ok, u guys have reformatted and install anti-virus on the customer computer.
4 days later they came back with all these pop-up (most likely they have been on those prawn sites...lol)
and they come in and say " what's going on , you didn't do your job properly "
how do you response to that?
will you charge them money ?
or give them a second chance?
If they use kaspersky this will rarely happen.
What happens if I press alt + F4?
Yeah have to agree there, I install Kaspersky after every reinstall (usually remove norton/Mcafee). If I don't the machine will come back with crap all over it.
Data Backup/Format/reinstall, I only charge $150. This saves them doing a round trip of 200kms plus charges.
thanx,
i will give Kaspersky a try.
eddie (fluidtek) was selling it for $15 each a few weeks ago
The one to get is Kaspersky Internet Security or KIS
What happens if I press alt + F4?
My supplier sells it for $35 Kaspersky internet security 2009 OEM.
can I get it anywhere else cheaper?
