Depends what store you order from. Pricewatch only lists prices from different stores. I've ordered off PW referrals a number of times without any problems, but YMMV.

Ya, YMMV, there are a lot of good sites on there, but there are some shady ones. www.newegg.com is usually very competitave, and very reliable.

pricewatch simply watches prices.

it depends on the store

Pricewatch has a feedback feature now, so you can see which stores do the best. Be sure to actually read the feedback to make sure people aren't just being vindictive or are morons to begin with.

Ya, there is a lot of bashing between stores on there. Pricewatch was awesome back in 97-98

Pricewatch is somewhat good, but like everyone said, read the Feedback thoroughly.

I ordered nearly every part for the computer I’m going to build from newegg. The videocard will come on Monday and I think Ill build it on Wednesday. Newegg is highly recommended. One thing is if the page says it has free super saver shipping you might get charged several dollars for handling.

There is only an additional charge if you select ruch process my order. I have never done that, becuase they usuallyship everything same day.

Actually I think your right. I check that order, and I got the deal they had where I ordered a certain mother board and processor, and I got a free copy of Far Cry. I think that they charged me for shipping the OEM version of Far Cry.
