no question, amazon. if they don't already have the lowest price they price match quickly plus 2 day delivery and no sales tax..doesn't hurt that they have a fantastic return policy. "prime" eligible items only...screw that third party crap.

I have used Newegg for years, I have built a few systems for myself and friends as well through them. Actually gonna do a build today after work for a friend. Customer service has always been fast and great, no problems with shipping, and I feel they have very fair prices. Amazon is great too.

I recently just made a perches on Newegg and loved the information I got back from the compony. Shipping also seemed to work quite well and I would defiantly shop there again. But I want to know, what is your favorite online retailer. Do you find shipping and customer care more important then cheaper prices? Or is there a certain place that you have been shopping at for years?

Let me know, I'm curious.

Easy, Newegg and Microcenter :D

I'm in Europe, Denmark, so I use various danish sites. I don't really use other countries sites, unless they have free shipping and guarantee delivery within 7 days. I want may things fast :)

I'm full of questions :O

Inet and Dustin, both of which aren't relevant to most of you as they are mainly Swedish.

 

While they aren't always cheapest, you can always trust their customer interactions to be top notch, and that's what I value the most.

Cheers,

Linus

Amazon, Newegg, and I WOULD say microcenter, but the closest one is in Atlanta Georgia  :( My Great-Aunt lives near Atlanta, and I got to go to the microcenter.... It was the most AMAZING thing that I have ever seen. Sucks that there are ONLY 22 locations WORLDWIDE.

 

I had no idea? I live right by one, even applied for a job there.
