Hi Guys I was just wondering, Is it illegal to build custom built pc's and sell them on, even though you havent got a qualification from a college or something?
 
Nope, though there really isnt much of a market for it.
If you want to go this route, build to order rigs. Building a rig and then trying to sell it isn't going to work. Your main advantage over Dell/HP/ASUS/Alienware is that you can make custom rigs for people, not just certain configurations.

One time I took a look at what it would take to open my own shop and I found that I would need to sell something like 3,000 systems a month to turn a profit and stay competitive with other boutique vendors. :ouch:

Yeah I think the trick to staying competitive in that market is that you need to find a niche and then cater to people who most appeal to that niche.
