OMG NEWEGG IN CANADA

Prices are no better than NCIX though so why would I shop there instead of at a Canadian company? I would only buy from newegg if their prices were lower than NCIX or if they had something I wanted that NCIX don't have.

same for me too actually, i was just surprised to see it is all. i remember before ncix really took off we didn't have too many options while the US customers had newegg. i just think its cool to see.

P.S. all my builds are from NCIX too:) love those guys.
 
Fck NCIX.. At least their Burnaby store. Richmond was really nice (visited all 5 incl headquarters on 1 trip up north :D), but fckin' Burnaby man. Their retail wait lines are intolerable, a guy wanted to just pay for some Clearance items and it was going to take him 30 minutes to do it. Wait times can sore past 1 hour(!) when it's busy. 1 hour to buy something- so inefficient it's mind-boggling. The wait times apply to all 4 retail outlets too (30 minute to buy a stupid S1283 bolt through @ Langley). Always dread going up north and needing parts when I'm there. Egg doesn't have retail outlets there so I guess that doesn't apply, but ugh, I feel for local buyers who are tied up to NCIX.
 
I'm confused... From my understanding NCIX, much like NewEgg, is a web based store - in this case they happen to have a storefront. Why would you expect amazing service from there? That's like expecting phone support for a mainland Chinese company to speak English.

As for NewEgg Canada, the prices haven't blown me away and the shipping prices are still horrid so I'll be sticking with my local suppliers and NCIX until I see a change.
 
Newegg is based in California so the shipping costs/transit time are probably not very pleasing.
 
Im sure newegg.ca prices will drop once they get some canadian costomers.
