Best online site for price comparison?

[Ajanta]

Which online sites are the best ones for comparision shopping of
computers, peripherals, and other electronic items in your experience?

I know of pricegrabber and shopzilla but would like to know of any
others.

 

[Dan G]

There's only one place to shop, IMHO

www.newegg.com

Price isn't everything, although NewEgg often has the best price too. What
matters is getting good service and prompt problem resolution. that's where
NewEgg is by far the best.

 

[Bennett Price]

consider www.froogle.com and shopper.com

I second NewEgg. They usually are within $5-$10 of the cheapest prices
I see anywhere, and I often don't go elsewhere if they have what I'm
looking for.

As far as other places I like to look in case NewEgg's price doesn't
seem all that great, www.pricewatch.com and www.resellerratings.com are
favorites. ResellerRatings.com also has the advantage of people rating
the customer service of the site.

dealmac.com has some good deals listed but you have to check back with
them routinely or sign up for their newsletter.
shopping.yahoo.com has come through for me more than once.
Like another poster, I like newegg.com also, as their shipping is
usually very reasonable and their service has been good for me. And they
have some great specials too.
surpluscomputers.com can have a gem in their store every now and then.
And I actually found a great deal on a keyboard I was looking for at
provantage.com not long ago, plus their shipping was very fast, as they
have a distribution point that is within 200 miles from me. I got the
item in two days on routine shipping charges. Really put a smile on my
face, as my old keyboard was getting really cranky and my fingers were
getting very sore!

I had been looking for my first laser printer for my home office. I had
pretty much decided that the HP 1020 was what I could afford (bottom of
the line but had some good reviews) however the cheapest price I'd seen
was $138 on Amazon (shipping extra)
Newegg had a 6-hour sale a couple weeks ago and I grabbed up the HP 1020
for $99.99 plus $6 shipping. Saved me $40+, no doubt. I'll be checking
them again regularly, for sure!

PRICEGRABBER IS FINE. SO IS BIZRATE

www.newegg.com

WHILE NEWEGG IS REPUTABLE THEIR PRICES ARE USUALLY MUCH HIGHER THAN
OTHER PLACES.

pricewatch.com for comparison shopping.
I tend to buy my stuff at gearxs.com if they have it.

others.

www.pricewatch.com and www.froogle.com
amazon.com also does some comparison

Keep in mind that lowest bid isn't always the way to go. Some products
might for example be referbs without full factory warranty.

I tend to shop at newegg.com. Their prices are good, their return
policy decent, and shipping is speedy.

Compare with Directron and Newegg.

I have shopped at Newegg and was satisfied. I have read lately that
they ship items returned by others.

I recommend Directron. I live 8 miles away and know several people
there. Most are computer nuts so you know you will get good service.
And in almost every case they will cost the same as Newegg. Of course
it depends on where you are located.

45% of our soldiers in Iraq are Nat'l Guard, with old, broken,
& outdated equipment. Is this any way to run an army?

It's the only way our army can run, after the Waco Massacre and most
young people not wanting to participate in the slaughter of fellow
citizens.

My exoerience is that on most computer/electronic items, amazon is
high.

Keep in mind that lowest bid isn't always the way to go. Some products
might for example be referbs without full factory warranty.

I tend to shop at newegg.com. Their prices are good, their return
policy decent, and shipping is speedy.

That's ironical since people have been complaining about Newegg
shipping items that were returned.

This is a good site with fairly reputable suppliers.

I use newegg.com but living in California there is a hefty sales tax
added on.
My last major purchase was this ip6600d from Buydig.com
for $181 delivered, then I had the Canon $25 rebate so all in all
a satisfactory transaction.

The only items I've bought from them that have been returned has been
one video card clearly marked refurb, strike also one DVD burner. I'm
not saying your statement isn't true... only I have not experenced
this. I did get a bum printer from them once... and had NO issues what
so ever returning it to canon... where if it was a refurb there might
have been an issue.

Until well into the Iraq fiasco, the military (including the reserves
and guard) had no problems in meeting their recruitment goals.

Waco had nothing to do with it.

PICK 10 ITEMS. DO A COMPARISON ON PRICEGRABBER. SEE WHERE NEWEGG
FALLS. THEN YOU CAN JUDGE
