Mail Order Internet Stores

Winnow · Post by **Winnow** » May 23, 2003, 8:48 pm

I've had 100 percent success ordering electronics and computer equipement via the internet. The prices are the best and there's no tax. I even ordered my HDTV rear screen projection TV mail order with no problems.

The two Internet sites I can recommend are:

Newegg.com http://www.newegg.com/

They are excellent with items in stock, great prices and fast shipping for computer related products.

One Call http://www.onecall.com/

Oustanding for electronic equipent. I've purchased a Big Screen TV, Receivers, DVD Players, etc from them all with timely shipping and good prices.

What other internet stores have been good to you out there?

I really just wanted to use the bold command in one of my posts

Actually I was looking into this for a tv I plan to get in August. So far the plans are for a 55'+ screen HDTV for the new place I will be moving into. I'm fairly certain of the kind and what not, I just have a question on this. What are the delivery arrangements? (especially for something of this magnitude)

I seem to remember the mainframe code for the Best Buy service plans used to be something like SUKR about 10 years ago.

I have actually been pricing some parts to rebuild my older comp on NewEgg, and I did not beleive the prices I was seeing until other people verified them...hehe.

*edit* hit submit before finishing~!

I got a Best Buy credit card once, and I can say that is fucking ghey and wrong. I went crazy last summer, buying surround sound, ps2, games and the such. I got the bad boy half way paid off, (at the time there was no interest what so ever...I thought) then the delayed interest kicked in and re-maxed it out. Apparently what they do, in order for you to buy more is to say, no interest for 6 months. What they mean is you won't pay it for 6 months, but unless it's paid off, you owe all the interest that should have been on there after said time. So I paid it off, called them up and gave them a hearty fuck you, then cancelled it.

Fucking bullshit I declare.

It's curb delivery for the big screen TVs. ..although they helped get it into my home.

WTF! BS tv's are close to 300 pounds if not more. That's fucked to pay over 2k for a tv and get curbside delivery.

That would be like asking FedEx to deliver your package to the bedroom. It's not their job : ) I'm sure if you asked the delivery guy nicely or shoved a 20.00 in his plumber's crack, you'd receive some help getting the TV through your front door.

I would have to second what Voronwe said about mwave. I have had a lot of luck ordering through them over the last couple years.

Ive ordered from a few different places...but I agree that http://www.onecall.com/ is very good. I ordered a DVD/VCR combo from them. Got the best price anywhere and the shipping was very fast.
