Point is....
Most Electronic items / Computer parts are made in China / Taiwan.

Where is China/Taiwan?
Is it closer to US rather than India? NO

So why is it costlier here in India rather than in the US???
Not becoz' of lack of demand, it's coz' distributors here are greedy.. that's it!

They can sell it at a lesser price - but they never care. GFX Cards -> a niche market here.

And one more thing. 256kbps is TERMED broadband in India.. beat that!
Not that we don't have the infrastructure. It's just that they just do not want to jump ahead!

PS: This thread ain't a rant against my nation! I love my country more than anything else.
This is put up just as a Point of View!

Peace.

When I've checked around, prices weren't that much different. What was hard though, was finding parts from a major brand or something a bit more specific, like DDR RAM at a certain speed. I checked around for power supply's once in India and had trouble finding anything besides some cheap house brand. It seems that most people in India would rather just buy whatever is as cheap as possible even if it won't last for a long time.

Do you blame them? My family lives in Gujarat and the dust is brutal on the computers there. Even if you buy an expensive piece or a cheap piece; the dust kills it. Why buy expensive stuff?

dude, you can always clean it... it's not that bad..

I've heard of a lot of things killing a PC, but never dust.

You've got to be kidding me. You've never seen dust cover a board and cause it to overheat or clog the fins of a heatsink causing the CPU to overheat?
