As long as you're going to detail your components, why not add
prices to help make it more informative?

Cheers,

He is buying from a menu.



15 years ago I bought a semi-assembled system from a menu-based
web page like that. They made a couple of mistakes in assembly.
So don't assume that they can do a better job than you--because
you are more likely to read the main board manual first, for
instance! The company I purchased that system from went out of
business. If you can wait until "Black Friday", you might be able
to save a few hundred dollars (maybe not at that site?). I've
had good luck finding prices I like at NewEgg. They let you build
a system as a shopping list there too..I forget the exact
details--but it is helpful! Good luck!
