Anyone know of a independently owned shop that would have a decent selection of newer hardware? Best buy is a joke… with their selection and prices. CompUSA was actually ok sometimes, but their out of business soooo… ---

There’s a reason why places like TDN don’t exist anymore man… because you shouldn’t be buying this stuff local when the deals are so much better online. You really can’t wait 2 days for that new hardware from [newegg.com](http://newegg.com)? ---

I remember TDN…that place was where I bought my first two systems. They were definately pricey when compared to online deals. Thats why Comp USA also closed. New Egg IMO is best place for deals or [http://pricewatch.com](http://pricewatch.com) ---

You could probably overnight the parts from newegg and still save more than buying local. ---

Good question dude. The last time I had a customer drop off a PC that needed a power supply in a pinch, I got a good deal on an antec at office max of all places. 34 bucks was a fair price, not ripoff like worst buy or crap usa.
