Good Evening Ozbargain Community,

I’ve been lurking here forever, admiring the hustle for insane deals and tech treasures. Today, I’m finally stepping out from the shadows to introduce Obsidian Labs, my shiny new venture born out of a borderline unhealthy obsession with gaming hardware. I built my first PC at 11, convincing my parents to drop cash on a pile of parts I promised I could turn into something that wouldn’t explode. Fast forward 5 years, and that same obsession with hardware has turned into Obsidian Labs—a mission to deliver gaming PCs that slap without slapping your wallet.

PC building is more than a hobby to me. I’ve sunk countless hours into tweaking, testing, and building rigs, not just for myself but for friends, family, and anyone brave enough to let me near their setup. After hearing way too many people say, “I wish there was a prebuilt that’s actually worth the price,” I thought, “Fine, I’ll do it myself.”

Here’s the deal: I’m cutting through the noise in the PC market with a focus on honest pricing, killer performance, and vibes (aka actually good service). My goal? To make rigs that balance power, quality, and affordability so well that you won’t feel like you’re getting scammed by Big PC. I know the market’s competitive, and some might have a slight edge on price at the moment, but as the orders come in, I will fine-tune prices and offer even better deals. It’s all about growing together, and I’m excited to see where we can go.

As for my experience in building computers, I’ve sold over 20 units on Facebook Marketplace, maintaining an average 4.9-star rating. So, you can be confident that quality and delivery of the builds won’t be a problem. You can check my profile here.

Anyways, I’ll shut up now—here’s what you came for:

    Nice to see the drive and passion but suggest you divert it to another business venture. Have you done a SWOT analysis? This is a saturated market with low barrier to entry. Selling without Windows and without a profit margin is not sustainable. Having only sold 20 units you don't have the purchasing power to compete. Eventually you're going to have to raise prices and you'll realise there is no customer loyalty. Customers will simply go to the next retailer with better prices.

    • dbmitch on 26/11/2024 - 20:20

      What's that ratio again? For every cheap free comment of 'good luck' you make 0.5% towards a real sale?

      Selling without Windows and without a profit margin is not sustainable.

      Actually it is sustainable running parts cost + 5% when you're doing it from your garage and your parents are subsidising overheads

      His website is certainly more appealing than other builders who introduce themselves on their home page with "We are a registered tax compliant business (ABN…"

          I have emailed a second time. Hoping to get a reply this time.

    • Cgiclinic on 15/12/2024 - 10:18

      I made my orders on 27th Nov (18 days ago) with a lead time of 7-10 days. Have spoken to him over the phone a few times and emailed back and forth. He sounds naive which should be expected. I’ve given him the benefit of the doubt as a new venture. I learnt a lot about life wheeling and dealing in high school, but this is next level!

      Communication/customer service could be an area of improvement. We should all give him constructive feedback, as that will only improve his processes. I’m not sure PayID For interstate orders like mine would be recommended in the future because it will just lead to customer anxiety. I think just be upfront and pass on the PayPal fee to the customer for everyone’s peace of mind.

      He has approximately 40 orders. Anyone in Sydney actually come pick up their orders face to face? Aust post emailed me that they have picked up my orders from his place. Estimated delivery sometime in about 3-5 days. Will update the rest of you who might be waiting to hear from him

      • Cgiclinic on 19/12/2024 - 18:43

        Arrived today. Will update on my review

  • Cgiclinic on 21/12/2024 - 17:03

    I bought 2 computers to be shipped interstate. One for my high end golf sim and one for my teenage nephew. Obsidian prices were approx. half the price what the golf sim company quoted me. I spoke over the phone about my needs and Obsidian gave me a good explanation of what I required for a superior gaming experience.

    My advice to him would be increase your prices and pass on the transaction cost to your interstate buyers rather than request PayID. People will be happy for peace of mind for these purchases. You can still offer a discount for local customers paying cash.

    I agreed to the PayID request but this created a bit of anxiety when the lead time quoted was 7-10 days (especially when I didn’t want to disappoint my nephew if anything happened). There was a minor delay as you received a high number of orders. But it all worked out in the end.

    I guess the saying is true, customers want “high quality, low cost and fast… choose 2”. In this case, the price was phenomenal, build and shipping were very professional. I wish Lokraj all the best with his future endeavours, I won’t be surprised if he builds the next unicorn company with his work ethic at a formative stage in his life. I would be happy to continue to support his business.

    I posted pictures of his build on his company’s google page
