So I have never seen a thread similar to this. To help people with their PC building and purchases I decided to make this

 

Simply reply down below your country and stores/shops you have that sells computer components (both online and uhm offline in person). Include stores that sell overpriced items too since to give a variety of options to future builder

 

Also I think this post will gets popular so make sure you read other replies first to make sure nothing gets duplicated

 

Me first

NCIX, Canada Computers, Vuugo, Tigerdirect, BestBuy, Staples, Walmart, Memory Express, DirectCanada, shopRBC, Newegg CA, Amazon (obviously), PC Canada, Generic Technology, Mike's Computer Shop, SoftwareCity, Memory Depot, FrontierPC, indeedgo, Cendirect, PiperTech, ashlin

Stores: I like Digitalife, Supertienda, PCX (only retailer that sells Phanteks, bless their soul), OrbitalStore, and Cyberpuerta.

 

Mostly the same as stores in other countries, with a bit of a case of low variety that I really dislike. Not a single retailer has any noctua in their catalogue :(

I was surprised to find out that Microcenter doesn't show up on pcpartpicker US.

 

Or was I drunk that night?

It is, but it would get newegg in all kinds of trouble.

 

Or at least it should. It's corruption and anticompetitive.
