is it safe to buy from onvia.ca?

[toph99]

the stock prices seem a little on the low side... it's the only place that i can get an Antec SX830 for $130cnd, plus i know they have great shipping and packing. is it a good idea or am i getting myself into trouble by ordering from them?

If you worry about the stock price, 99.9999% of online store stocks are on the low side, if they are public......If you order it from them, you will get your stuff in a week, I don't think they will close down in that short a time. I've order from them a few times, they are usually pretty good. They are still one of the most reputable online store there is.

Don't knwo much about their Canadian store but the US department is very very very very good. Ordered a 19" monitor there.. not only was the base price the cheapest anywhere but that free shipping was delicious. "3-7 day ground service" and it came overnight! amazing!

I haven't dealt with them yet but make sure you understand their return policy exceptions http://www.onvia.ca/canada/help/index.cfm?Task=returns

Onvia is actually a Canadian company, they just happen to have a U.S. branch. Both are very good. It will be a shame if we see onvia go, low prices, large selection, free shipping.. its hard to beat.

Onvia.ca is my favorite online store. Free shipping rules.

onvia.ca is easily one of the best places to buy computer hardware in canada. I can't recommend them highly enough. I have bought thousands of dollars worth of stuff from them over the past year (personal and business).

No more free shipping and they add CA sales tax.. I guess I'm doing business elsewhere.
