Oh damn, that really sucks!!!!!! I have ordered things from them in the past, and had real good luck with them! They always pretty much competed with NewEgg, and Tiger Direct in there prices

wow, that's a bummer. I heard a lot of people who were really happy with the service they got from ClubIT. I don't think I've ever heard a negative complaint about them!

Business ain't what it use to be. Chumbo's been down for a while as well. But we haven't liked Chumbo really. Not as a whole at least.

There's others in the wake that are always ready to step up...for now. And that "for now" is what keeps the others on their toes. Moogr? Anyone is worth shooting at the big giant that is newegg, right?

The marketing world is hard to grasp and wrap your head around. You can promise, and then base promises on promises...but if you can't read the print, it's all here and now.

And it looks like after filing Chapter 7, Clubit has been bought out and is now back online and in stores. This, for me, is excellence news. I'd love to see another e-tailer really put the competitive screws to NewEgg and straighten their ass out.
