I purchase all of my computer & networking equipment from Tiger Direct so I get about a million emails with some really good deals.

I buy all my stuff from there whether its personal or business related. If you like dealing with BS rebates tiger direct isn’t bad.

I’ve never had a problem with either company and have spent thousands of dollars at both web sites over the years. Just stating that newegg has won in speed, price, and RMAs consistantly over those years. They are always the first place I look for equipment and usually the last. There have been times when I order early in the morning and get my stuff the next day without spending money on the extra shipping. Depends which warehouse it comes from. ---

Depends which warehouse it comes from. x2 and FWIW I picked up a 22" Westinghouse LCD for $220 @ Best Buy in May. Cheaper than your deal, no waiting, no shipping, no MIR. ---

tigerdirect isn’t bad. I bought a barebones from them and all is well. but fucking newegg is where it’s at. I order shit and it’s at my door no more than 36 hrs later in most cases. ---

When I first started rebuilding computers (very late 90s) I used [Pricewatch](http://www.pricewatch.com/) all the time. Kind of a brokerage for computer parts. Some companies are good, Newegg is on there alot, and some get really bad reviews. Out of the 300 machines I rebuilt for the Army, I only had to send back 1 Intel processor that was DOA, along with 2 sticks of RAM. We tried to order from the same companies, but budget dictated going for the cheapest most of the time. Some places match prices but you have to call in. Never ordered from TD, but Newegg on several occasions. ---
