Oklahoma Needs You!

Greetings,

Thank you for posting on the Micro Center Community! Thank you for providing us a location you think a Micro Center would be great at! I sadly don't have the pay-grade to make the decision of opening up a location but I will send your suggestion over to the proper teams for consideration! 

I made an account just to support the thought that OKC needs a micro center, currently trying to upgrade and there is nowhere to go to actually compare parts and prices that I can put my hands on. Could be HUGE business seeing that best buy indeed does suck.

I also made an account so that this can be bumbed up again and be noticed again!

I'm from the Oklahoma City area and I also came to say that Oklahoma City should be considered. OKC as a city is growing and I think it could definitely support a micro center.

I also agree about Oklahoma needing one, the OKC area would be great, I know about 20 enthusiasts in my small little town of about 5000 people

Noticing all the recent buzz about an OKC store. I'd like to offer a different scope of competition: Amazon.

Oklahoma is home to two massive Amazon fulfillment warehouses in both OKC and Tulsa, meaning that our parts typically come in extremely quickly within a few hours. That being said however, as others have expressed; I personally would love to have a micro center where I can physically examine and compare my parts without running the risk of amazon delivery damaging them or being stolen or not being satisfied with how my part looks in person. The Micro Center bundles alone would switch me off of Amazon.

Best Buy as stated in above comments is a no-go and for overpriced junk. Micro Center would hurt Best Buy if there was a place to put it somewhere near Penn and Memorial in between Edmond and OKC near Kilpatrick as mentioned above. Edmond is close enough to offer Tulsa residents a closer alternative than having to go all the way to St Louis, and giving South Oklahoma residents the chance to avoid driving all the way to Texas all while being close enough a drive for all OKC residents.

Regardless of where one is put in the state, I will drive all that way just to have my parts the same day, on my time, looking at those sweet bundles.

Thank you!

A microcenter in Oklahoma, either in Tulsa or Oklahoma City, would be great.

Bump for Tulsa Desperately needs a you! even OKC would be better. I think the community here is big enough to support a local facility. I see the comment about Amazon. but Microcenter does not do shipping on 99% of the computer parts. So I have to travel out of state to build a new computer. not a deal breaker, just an added layer of planning. making sure my parts I want are in stock and modifying orders as needed. I'm not driving 500 miles for ram. but to build a whole computer usually is worth the drive.
