give oppinons on any online computer parts store you wish, you can use any valid reasons for your choice. Price, stock, shipping, customer service......

<EDIT> I just wanted to appologize for the lack of a poll, and more importantly for the inclusion of Tiger Direct who we all agree sucks!!! </EDIT>
 
never had a problem with newegg so I never needed to use any of the others. Newegg treats me how every company treats their customers and then some.
 
Newegg is my fav but I have been having problems with later. Zipzoomfly is quickly catching up with Newegg though.

TIGERDIRECT SUCKS
 
Ill do all my searching at newegg (because their search engines are great for finding exactly what you want) but then I will buy most things from zipzoomfly.

Zip Zoom Fly is like New Egg with (mostly) free FedEx shipping.

Newegg has finally ditched the POS UPS or has ZZF converted to the POS UPS?

I have not shopped at either in several months.
 
I've never had any problems with Newegg, had one RMA but they gave me no hassle and even broke their rules a little so I wouldn't have any PC downtime. I've only ordered from ZipZoomFly once and I can't complain. Tigerdirect charges tax since I'm NC and I can usually save a few bucks ordering from other e-tailers so I stay away from them.

I priced out the system in my sig on both Newegg and ZZF, the difference including shipping was surprisingly only$40. Reading the forums I'd have expected a bigger price difference. I went with Newegg because they had the Seasonic PSU I wanted and at ZZF I had to pick another brand since they didn't carry Seasonic PSUs.
 
When looking for a specific part I'll check NewEgg, ZZF, MWave, Directron and maybe one or two others. They're all similar enough that whoever has the lowest price gets the business. NewEgg is my first choice. Since they have a New Jersey warehouse I can usually get my orders from them faster than I can get delivery from ZZF via 2nd day air. NJ to Connecticut is mostly ships one day, delivered the next.
 
I have purchased most of my stuff through Newegg for the last year, but ZipZoom is pretty good...they just haven't had what I'm looking lately.

ZZF has ditched the free fedex 2 day.
 
Newegg rocks for finding things, but they sometimes have what i want "out of stock" at very in-oppratune moments. zipzoomfly is rapidly gaining my respect and if they can put together a competitve search engine with out raising prices (p.s. there web site kinda sucks) they can really do some good!!!

( I thought I should add my two cents)

55% from NewEgg
40% from Zip Zoom

5% 'other'

But check out Neweggs 'alter ego' - Chief Value, which shares their street address & warehousing network.
 
Newegg is the best closely followed by ZipZoomfly and Tiger Direct shouldn't even be on this list they suck the big one!

I don't play favorites. Whoever has the lowest price, including shipping and promotions, gets my business. It's funny how the Newegg fanbois can so readily forgive their stacked shipping prices. I also buy from CircuitCity, Staples, OfficeMax, Best Buy, Fry's Outpost, Buy.Com, Sears... you name it! I factor rebates into the final price, too!
 
Newegg needs to drop their cummulative shipping charges, but other than that they are the best in terms of selection and price.
 
I like Newegg because I'm only about 30 miles away from them and as long as I order in the morning, they will ship the same day and I'll have it the next day. I pretty much get Next Day shipping from UPS ground.

ZZF is nice too. Their prices are comparable, but they're a lot slower for me. I ordered a package on Monday morning and got it on Thursday.
