Top 3 Electronics/Computer Hardware Websites

For me, being a tech geek means buying electronics on a constant basis. Luckily, I am fortunate enough to have a Fry's Electronics in my city when I need to get a part quickly. However, when time is not of the essence and I have time to shop, my top 3 tech websites are as follows. Please chime in with comments and let me know if I should add/demote/promote from this list.

1. Newegg.com
Newegg.com has been my favorite electronics website for 5-6 years now. They always seem to have the parts I am looking for and their rating/comment system is the most useful and trusting system I have seen. Just based on user reviews and ratings will tell you all you will ever need to know about a product. I have noticed a price increase over the years with the site, I don't know if it is the economy or what, but I use to recall prices being a bit lower.

2. TigerDirect.com
Comparable to Newegg.com in many ways in terms of customer feedback and reviews. TigerDirect is also a site I trust for electronics. They have a huge selection of components, I just feel the site is a bit cluttered and products could be laid out more efficiently.

3. Geeks.com
This site has a good amount of refurbished and knock off brand electronics, but if you are just building a cheap computer and need a $15 dollar computer case, or just some affordable components, this is your place. Their prices are fairly low for their refurbs and knock-off brands but they also have competitive prices for name brand products. You can also find weird gadgets from time to time. Fast shipping comparable to Newegg.com

Notable Mentions: crutchfield.com (great for audio), amazon.com (great site, just slow shipping from my experience, great for mp3 purchases), ebay.com (based on the seller, you can save huge $$ and get a great product)
