I had to go outside of my usual shopping zone as my local store did not have the Elgato model I needed. The Wangara store was excellent with advice and some guidance on my ideas for how to use the Elgato for the conference presentations I was planning. Above and beyond customer service! Thank you. Show details

PLE Cockburn gave me excellent service, great comms via email and the phone, I ended up with the config that I was happy with. I ordered my PEZZ custom gaming PC and my 32inch 4k monitor. The build was ready and completed in 4 days. I used the online build my custom PC and it included all prices as I changed up the parts and it all went well. This is my 3rd PC I have had built by PLE and will continue to use their service. Show details

I bought a customized gaming PC, it was build in a timely manner without any issues. The last 3 PC's i have owned I purchased from PLE and never had a single issue. I worked in IT for a long time, and I can build my own PC but i cannot be bothered and PLE does such a good job I get great value out of them doing it for me. I cannot recommend them highly enough, any PC parts i can buy from PLE i do. Thanks PLE Show details

I bought a new PC (tower only) and after searching online and reading review and checking prices I went with PLE. I got a great deal on a gaming PC. It was shipped out promptly and so well packed. I have had absolutely no issues with PLE and will definitely buy from them again without hesitation. Show details

 Follow-up  · Loving my PC. I've had zero problems with it since I bought it, and use it quite a lot. Very happy with my buy.

Excellent availability and variety of goods – PLE has been around for years not only as online shop but also as a physical store chain. They have always been a benchmark for lowest prices in WA but also for availability and variety of quality items. Shopping is easy, page layout makes searching… Read more

for specific item and brand easy. Proper invoice and receipt is always sent and if you register as a member, shopping history and invoice history always available if you loose originals. Parts are always new and unopened but if you get a dud it is easy to replace it or claim the warranty. If you lost the receipt they can always tell if and when did you buy the part because they always tie serial number with your receipt so support is great. Even if you find it cheaper in other stores it will not be by much but buying in PLE you get a piece of mind. I am not sponsored or paid by PLE to say this but long years of experience with them made them my first choice to look for any computer parts I need to buy.

 Follow-up  · Still the same. And still the benchmark for prices and availability.

I bought a Kingston high speed SD card from PLE Computers for a new, high end digital camera I bought. The price was good, very straight forward to order online. The card arrived in a few days. Happy customer!

 Follow-up  · The Kingston card has performed reliably in my new camera. I was recommended this brand by my computer shop as I previously used San disks which are cheap but unfortunately not reliable. I didn't want to risk losing precious photos.

I tried to purchase gift cards for Christmas from PLE online, and none of the delivery options were available-they offered Uber, which was refused, and express post mail-refused, when submitting. So I phoned the Perth store, and they told me to come in. I couldn't get there, that's why I was trying to do it online. They helped me make the purchase… Read more

over the phone, but sent me no receipt, just an order confirmation number, and no Express mail notification indicating it had been sent in the following days. Express APO mail is usually 3 days at most. I waited a few more days with a weekend in between and contacted them again by phone. The money had already been taken out of my account, but after a week of no further communication and still no cards, I was concerned. They checked on my order and said it was still at the warehouse after a week-I paid for Express, but they didn't action the order as an Express order. I got the gift cards after 2 weeks. Not Express at all. While the staff on the phone were very nice and helpful, the actual website was rubbish-makes promises and couldn't deliver-literally, and the store, though the staff were nice, the warehouse didn't process for a week and again, didn't take action on the order as an Express item to send it quickly. Come on guys, you can do better.

I’ve been shopping at PLE for many years for computer accessories like mice, external drives, and other peripherals, and I’ve generally been quite satisfied with those purchases. I’ve used Macs for most of my adult working life, but in 2023 I finally had time to get back into gaming and decided to have a custom PC built through PLE Bentley. While… Read more

the build took a bit longer than expected due to parts availability at the time, everything eventually came together neatly.

The staff at PLE Bentley were helpful throughout the process. When I mentioned that I was returning to PC after decades on macOS, they were happy to assist with the transition. My questions — even the more basic ones about using Windows — were answered promptly and without judgement, which I appreciated.

Overall, the hardware quality was solid — mostly. One of my peripherals, a soundbar, failed quite dramatically one day (it literally went up in smoke), but the warranty process through PLE was straightforward and handled well.

However, I did experience an issue with my Gigabyte M32U monitor, purchased as part of my setup. In 2024, the right built-in speaker began intermittently cutting out. I brought the monitor in for testing, and PLE confirmed the issue before sending it off to Gigabyte. I was offered a replacement monitor during this time, which I declined as I had another monitor available.


About a month later, I was told Gigabyte couldn’t replicate the issue and returned the monitor as-is. Unfortunately, the problem still occurs in normal use. While a video was provided by Gigabyte, showing the speakers working at full volume, the issue tends to appear at lower, more typical listening levels.


I still have around six months of warranty remaining, but I’m weighing up whether to pursue it again due to the time and inconvenience involved, rather than a lack of support from PLE. The idea of repacking the monitor and potentially waiting another month just to be told there’s “no fault found” again isn’t particularly appealing.

I also had a baffling experience about two years ago with an online order paid via bank deposit. After purchasing, I received an email stating “order is now ready for collection at your earliest convenience”, complete with a QR code for pickup. When I arrived in store, I was told the email only meant the product was available in-store, not that it was actually ready for collection, as the bank transfer hadn’t cleared yet. This wasn’t communicated clearly, and the staff member I spoke to at the time was unexpectedly defensive when I asked why the email instructed me to come collect. I ended up waiting a few days and returning later to collect the order without any follow-up confirmation.

That incident aside, and despite the unresolved monitor speaker issue, my overall experience with PLE over the years has been largely positive. Staff have generally been helpful and knowledgeable, purchases have been reliable, and warranty support has been reasonable overall, even if not perfect in every case.

I would still shop with PLE again and feel comfortable recommending them, with the caveat that warranty outcomes can sometimes depend heavily on the manufacturer involved.

computers. My own computer needed to be updated to Windows 11. My wife’s computer was too old, which had Hardware issues, and was not able to be updated to Windows 11. I went to PLE Computers in Bentley, and found their service excellent. I would like to thank them for their help! Their service was carried out promptly. My wife’s computer needed to be renewed. Being on the Australian Age pension, we needed to be careful how much we could afford to spend on a new home office computer. The person who served me, negotiated an affordable price on a new computer. The service I received was excellent, Our computers are up and running. There was a teething problem with Microsoft Office 21, which PLE managed sort out free of charge. Thankyou Guys

Happy with my products but pretty unhappy with my service. The man at the counter who served me seemed to love talking and was very happy to the customer before me. But for whatever reason once I started to talking to him he looked very unhappy and didn't give me the time of day cutting me off when I spoke like it was a inconvenience that I was there. Show details

When I originally took my PC in to get the parts into a new case, I was informed that it would take a week. From memory, it was only that weekend, which was only a few days after I took my old PC in. As for the PC as it is now, it runs better with the extra fans that were installed and it looks so much better in the white case. All in all, I am very happy with my purchase. Bonus points to the staff for being professional and quick. Show details

I was after a custom built computer to how I wanted and specs, was able to easily configure it online, I was a bit worried about some parts that were not available locally but in other states. This issue was Not an issue as they transfer the parts across from other store, which I found a competitor would not do. Super happy with the my build they did , no issues at all. Service online to picking up at the store was 10/10 highly recommended. Show details
