I do reformat pc's and laptops. Yet as of now, I am don't want to ask money from them. So my service is for free for now. That is why I will ask you guys about what you think would be the reasonable price for reformatting or OS change. You may answer me in any currency. Just don't forget the name of your currency. Thanks!

When i still have my computer shop and repair shop, I only charge them USD$2 for OS reformatting because of troubleshooting.. but with reformat alone it's free..if they bought the OS from me =)

Yeah, a $2 is quite reasonable. But Php800 is too much I think... Thanks!

I only accept if it is free. I know how to reformatting and how to change the OS for free. I know that is not right, but is good to do it by myself.

I charge 300Php to 500Php for reformat but it still depends if they will ask additional softwares or if they will bring the pc to me or I'll be the one to go on their place.

I do the reformatting myself coz i know how to repair and fix computer problems. The usual price for reformatting here in the philippines is around 500 to 1k pesos. Still depends if the pc or laptop is on warranty from the dealer or manufacturer or not.
