Anyone trust Tiger Direct for new CPU?

[xroyal]

The price is right, but have heard negatives on Tiger Direct. Your input appreciated.

I've bought lots of 'stuff' from Tiger, never had a problem. Never bought just a cpu.

I wouldn't trust them. Last year when the K6-3 release was rumored, Tiger Direct printed in their catalog they had 450s and 500s. Yeah sure. Now the say they have K6-2+ and K6-3+.

Just bought ram from them. They double ordered it. Tried to e-mail them, got no response. Tried to call them, hold time was estimated at 40-55 minutes everytime I called. Instead of the 256megs I ordered, I got 4 sticks of 128megs, which I am going to try and sell the extra 2 sticks since I cant get ahold of anyone there! :|

Check there shipping prices first. Bought a minitower case for 23.00 dollars and paid 18.00 shipping, what a rip.

I purchased a K6-3+ 450 from them about a month ago. Got it exactly 6 days after I ordered it, (including a weekend) and haven't had a single problem. This isn't the only thing I have orderered from them, but it applies directly to your question. (By the way, I have purchased many things from them and haven't had a reason to complain as of yet, although their shipping IS a bit steep...)
