Good to know Sue. I *almost* ordered something from them on this last build. I'll give them a shot next time.

Yup, both are fantastic vendors.

Never had any dealings with "Newegg" but have heard they are really good.
"TigerDirect" is a good place to get some parts from and they are exceptionally fast on shipping, always receive merchandice before the expected delivery date.
Their rebates really suck though, still fighting them about $70.00 from last order from them, lucky i kept all the web pages from their ads and the rebate info on them.

The poblem I have with tigerdirect, aside from the rebates as you mentioned, is that they heavily push off-brand products as though they're top-tier and their prices are pretty mediocre.

And I've seen them promote out-of-stock items as seemingly in-stock. I remember when the Asus A8N32-SLI first debuted and was a hot commodity, they had it listed for a decent price with no mention of it being out of stock or on backorder. I had my suspicions, so I dropped them a line and got a response about 3 days later letting me know that they didn't have any.

Rich has a similar story, but I can't remember what the component was.

Most of our computers are built with 90% of it coming from newegg!

I used to play the Pricewatch Game, and get all the best deals on the net. After getting burned with crappy service, lost orders, and Terrorist owned Etailers (bzboyz), I now stick with newegg.

**drew and not u** · November 14th, 2006

How do you know bzboyz is owned by terrorists? I did a google search that turned up nothing. They look kinda sketch but I dont see anything that screams jihad. Not saying your wrong, just wondering where you heard that?

I dont like newegg.com. They take all my money and all I get for it is shiny peices of silicon that will be outdated before it reaches my door. Damn I shoulda picked up stamp collecting as a hobby.
