Like many here, I'm a long-time satisfied customer of NewEgg. Sometimes,
though, I want something quickly that they don't have in stock, or just
don't carry. I recently waited a week for a part to be back in stock, and
had signed up to be autonotified, only to see that they've pushed back the
ETA by another week.
So I've looked around for an alternate source. Most of the companies I've
come across either had poor ratings from Reseller Ratings or poor websites.
For instance, I tried ZipZoomFly which seems OK, but not very informative in
its product descriptions. These seem to be taken verbatim from
manufacturers' literature, including the parenthetical remark "(optional)".
At least NewEgg usually edits these descriptions, and also (usually)
includes pictures from different angles and of the box contents, so you have
a pretty good idea what you will get.
I prefer to deal with NewEgg because they offer very good prices,
information, and shipping, and excellent service. NewEgg is definitely hard
to match. But I need a backup source. Any suggestions?
Thanks!
