Rejoice, all you Canadian Computer Nerds....

For Soon you will also be able to buy all your parts from everyone's favorite Computer E-tailer, NEWEGG!

Newegg.ca - Hello Canada, Newegg is Coming Soon.

Just thought I'd give all our northern regulars the heads up. The rumor is they will be opening up at the beginning of October, so if you were thinking about buying those shiny new parts soon, you may want to hold off just a bit longer.

Nice.... I wonder how they will compare with Canada Computers - Your Neighbourhood Computer Store and Service Centre - PC Systems and Hardware Components, Notebooks, Electronics, and more.

I am in love. All this time when I search for cheap upgrades newegg always has the cheapest parts...... everywhere else is at least 10-20 bucks more... but I always see "US only"

YAY

NCIX out of Burnaby British Columbia is just as cheap if not cheaper than new egg and they don't rape you on the shipping.

Yep, I love NCIX.
They also will typically match / better another posted price.


But it will be great to have newegg available here as well. Competition is always good for the consumer

That is good news

Thats cool guys. More choices and maybe even a few price wars can't be a bad thing.

Newegg has slipped a bit in the past few years, but no one has found a better alternative that they are 100% comfy with, so we keep using links to the Egg for gear that we find.

Obviously, its better to have the competition, so that in itself is a plus. I just wish we had a Fry's nearby that I could hit up every now and then. When we went to San Diego in 2003, I had room in my suit case reserved for a CPU/board combo from them.
Hell, I'd toss out some clothes to make room for that kinda stuff if need be, but unfortunately we had no car to get to Huntington Beach and I never did get to meet up with Dark4se while out there.
