Thanks for your replies.
A web presence is a must, whether I am able to compete with NewEgg in the short term I honestly do not know given their purchasing power and level of investment they have thrown into the front end (web site), I've never actually dealt with NewEgg so I don't know how good they are, I'm certain they are very good however.
Unless you are very rich you have to like all business start small, throw money back into the businesses so long as you have the reputation and sustainability to support the growth.
I think it's a little bit harsh generalizing that all Lebanese are cheap, people on lower incomes may not be able to afford an i7 920 nVidia SLI/Crossfire set up with RAID 0, however that said though that would be a great gaming rig, games also play well on a C2Q or AMD Phenom set up with single VGA, no doubt there are customers who play poker online, want to do a bit of word processing and go on Facebook, and equally well a C2D will cope with that for a fraction of the cost on an i7. There are cheap English people as well.
Yorgi, you mentioned location, I was thinking Beirut, not sure exactly but Acrafieh, Sin El Fil, that kind of location.
Knowledge and Honesty are basic character traits of mine (my wife would probably say I am too honest) and something I have direct control over.
In terms of Pricing, Quality and Choice, if we there to rank them how would it turn out, would choice be number 1 and price number 2? or what do you think. I ask because I've looked at PC and Parts and the pricing looks OK, he seems to have a reasonably good business but he does not offer a great range (though OK) of say mother boards. For me it's nothing like what I am able to get (choice wise) when I go back to the UK, which is what I do for my own rig.

He also builds the system and charges 10 bucks which I think is weird considering you just bought all the parts (and profit that goes with those parts), it takes 2 hours to build a rig, You'd ghost the hard drive which would have an image of more or less everything that is needed driver/software wise and them either add later or remove as needed. So total time to build about be 3 hours and then 24 hours burning/testing etc, but that's automated.
I don't see any of the fancy stuff either like liquid cooling, fancy air cooler/fans etc.
There are a lot of quality items not being represented in Lebanon for example Seasonic and PC Power and Cooling PSU. Tagan PSU.
Is there actually a showroom in Lebanon you can walk into, bring your own game load it up and play it for an hour to make sure the rig does what you expect it to. I'm not intending running a gaming cafe however I think anybody whose a serious gamer should want to see that their game of choice plays as they expect on their rig of choice.
Don't get me wrong I am not pulling PC and Parts apart or bad mouthing, it just they don't not seem to be what I would call "complete"
You see above all, though it's a business opportunity first and foremost I am a computer enthusiast (I actually collect weird and wonder unix workstations), I think it make all the difference being into it (sure you can be certified/work in the industry etc) but being a nerd also helps.
