Buy Computer Components Online

Here’s a tip that the average consumer doesn’t know.  Buy your computer parts online.  Most people go to Walmart, Best Buy or their local computer store to buy computer components.  Sure they get the part right away, but they are paying for the convenience.

You will more often find the best prices online.  Stores like Newegg, Mwave and Buy.com have good prices and are reputable retailers.  Shop around and compare prices of these stores.  Often one or the other will be having a sale or rebate on the component you are interested in.

Don’t think that going to bestbuy.com will get you better prices either.  You get the same overpriced stuff with all the hassle.  Deals are these big box stores are few and far between.  If you want or need something soon, order it online and wait 3 days for it to come.

For example the 8800gt at best buy sells for $300.  You can get the same card from Newegg for $260.  $40 savings is significant in my book.  This is a common occurrence, as the markup for big box stores is high.
