Depends on the products really.

NewEgg/NCIX for the normal stuff, which ever has the best deals.

FrozenCPU for all the modding/water cooling stuff.

Umart or PC Case Gear because NCIX shipping is so expensive to Australia

Woo, fellow scandinavian here, or more precisely, Norwegian :)

I pretty much only buy from Komplett or DustinHome and sometimes Techbay if the other sites doesen't have what I need.

And luckily I live only a 20 min drive from Komplett main storage place so I can just order online and take a short drive out there.

I live in Ontario, Canada so I shop at Canada Computers. I would buy at NCIX but when I buy computer related parts I want them when I pay for, lol. I guess I just don't to wait for the item to arrive at my door. There is a NCIX retailer near me but Canada Computers is closer, probably a 30 minute drive difference from my house to Canada Computers and from my house to the closests NCIX.

A lot of my stuff comes from ncix but if I need it quick it's either new-egg or tiger direct. Also get enough stuff from B&H and amazon, eBay.

We have a Canada computer walk in store around that I use when I need stuff yesterday, otherwise I avoid them as much as I can. I don't like the way they threat costumers there.

If NCIX would be a bit faster at shipping my orders I'd use them exclusively, but even with a dedicated sales rep I'm still waiting for most my orders couple days to ship out.

I usually purchase from Amazon. I also frequent TechBargains to see if I can catch some deals from lesser-known vendors.

Store next door or sometimes I go to Köln in Germany and shop at Snogard.

Those are the main things, I have never ordered on the internet before. ^^

Newegg. Sometimes Amazon/Microcenter.

NCIX's web layout for the U.S. just looks, ugly, compared to the Canadian one. Sorry Linus :P

I buy from Newegg. But seeing how I just discovered Linus Fall of Last year and didn't know NCIX was around Ill probably start shopping at both.

I just want to sit back and watch the world burn.

Definitely love myself some Newegg, very very small amount from Amazon. I wish I could get to an NCIX to buy parts, but I don't have the money to either drive there or even buy any parts! I'm definitely going to have to check out some sites that people have listed above!

I purchase from NCIX unless they are out of stock of a specific item that I need quickly.

Lately, I've been buying from Amazon. Mainly because I have Prime, and I've come to see that the prices are generally better than Newegg.
