We Specialize In OEM Products!
What's OEM? OEM generally means "original equipment manufacturer." Sometimes it is referred to as "open-ended market" and used interchangeably with "bulk-pack," "white box," "brown box," and "gray market." Almost all PC component and software vendors make two versions of the same product based on a difference in the distribution channels. One is the retail boxed products that are sold mainly through retailers. Guess who is paying for the nice-looking packages which cost vendors extra material and labor to produce (and everybody more pollution)? Retail packages also takes up more spaces and cost more to ship. The second one is the OEM products which are sold mainly to system builders, large ones such as HP and Dell (the OEMs) and many small ones such as the mom-and-dad shop on the corner and the DIY builders. These bulk-pack products do not have fancy packaging materials and are often produced in much higher volume, both of which result in much lower prices that have not been available to the public. The OEM products are of the same quality and often carry the same manufacturer warranty as their retail counterparts (the single-pack). They also often include supporting materials such as manuals and drivers when applicable. Whenever we can, Tek Smart distributes and sells the OEM versions for products such as microprocessors, memory, network cards, hard drives, and video cards, letting end-users and customers share the low cost. Finally, OEM quality and prices for the "little guys!"
