Where do you get your parts / prebuilt PC at?

[The Hollanesian]

Wanted to get an idea of where everyone is going and if you want state why you chose those places/websites.

I get most of my used parts from r/hardwareswap since the deals on there are hard to beat. There's also competition and lots of obscure things. Otherwise I get used parts from Craigslist if the prices are not at a 500% markup (which has been the CL trend in my area lately).

 

I find it interesting that B&H isn't an option in the poll since they seem to have pretty competitive prices.

I honestly have never heard of B&H. I will check this out.

I have only used PC partpicker one time and everything that came up for me was Amazon or New Egg.

For Canada, I believe the other main PC/electronic parts stores are Memory Express and Canada Computers, in addition to Amazon and Newegg. Also, Linus has done stuff for FreeGeek (non-profit electronics recycling/reusing center/charity/organization in Canada) once or twice in his videos.

Primarily Amazon and Newegg, although my Fury X comes from eBay.

I second B&H, I have bought other stuff from them and liked their prices and shipping.

I bought most on my components on Amazon.  I bought my current power supply (Corsair 650) at Best Buy, because the previous one (Cooler Master 550) failed and I wanted to replace it that day.  I bought my monitor (Pixio PX329) from Walmart, because if there was a problem on arrival, I could take it to the customer service desk of the local store to return it and not have to pay shipping.  Fortunately, there were no problems with the monitor.  I got my graphics card off ebay uesed EVGA GTX 1070 FTW for $237 (good price at the time).  Buying used let me jump up a GPU class from the GTX 1060 I was planning to buy new.  I've had no problems with it.

CPU, MB & RAM in my current system are from Microcenter, bought when I was on holiday and happened to be near one in November.

Case & GPU are from overclockers.co.uk

SSD - Ebay - brand new sealed Sabrent Rocket 1TB for about 30% less than they were in stores at the time

PSU was from Amazon UK, I think.

Overclockers.co.uk or Scan.co.uk are websites where I buy most of the parts (new parts) , everything what is second hand Ebay.

[Mihle]

Norwegian online stores or other Nordic countries ones that operate in Norway. What of them decide on the price when I do.

So I voted other.
