Between MSY and PC Case Gear here in Aus. PC Case Gear has a (much) better website and better range, but are only in Melbourne. MSY have stores all over the place so if you don't want to pay or wait for or take the risks of shipping MSY is better for that.

Canada Computers, Best Buy and NCIX

Oh and the Apple Store, but I think I've only actually gone there to look or for the Genius Bar, other than that I don't think I've actually bought anything from the Apple Store.

Memory Express is good. Bought my laptop and I did a price match. When you price math they will match it and lower it 10% which is cool.

I like Newegg because I live like a hundred miles from the City of Industry (okay maybe  80) and when I ordered components using Free shipping they sent a fucking van driver to hand deliver that shit to my door the next day.

 

Excellent customer service, would buy from them every time unless there was a huge price difference.

Memory express is the only retailer in my area. Their price match is awesome

Thats that. If you need to get in touch chances are you can find someone that knows me that can get in touch.

newegg.ca is my favorite, although their shipping is balls. they used to ship 100% with purolator and I would receive my order the next business day. now its Canada post xpress. I ordered a hard drive dock on monday, and Its still in transit from the warehouse that's 150 miles away, and expected to arrive tomorrow.

 

ncix.com and amazon.ca are both great as well, but ncix.com has the best shipping options, period. you can probably have it delivered across the country in a taxi if you asked them to.

I usually buy from other members on forums since I like buying used and saving money but my favorite retailer is probably Amazon but they started charging tax where I live so I've been buying off of Newegg for most of my stuff recently. 

My personal rig - 4790k 4.8Ghz, Asus Z97 Pro (wi-fi ac), Corsair Dominator Plat 4x8GB, SLI GTX 1080 TI FE, Samsung 850 Evo 1TB, Crucial MX100 512GB, EVGA G3 1000W, and cooled by a hardline liquid cooling loop.

NCIX.

I could order from elsewhere, but NCIX generally has the best prices for the stuff I want. (And price match so I don't need to shop elsewhere)

And Ebay, but that's mostly for used stuff or cheap junk from china that doesn't work properly. (Like micro USB cables to charge my tablet.. can only output 2W of power with the cheap cables, went to buy a "premium" cable at walmart for $12 (10 feet, too) and suddenly getting 10~12W... big difference in charging speed. (tested with an energy meter))
