Bestbuy is okay for computer parts and electronics.

Dude, shut the f*ck up. Don't go around yelling at people telling them what to buy and what not. Your DFI LP UT thread was stupid enough. Just stop and mind you own business.

In other words, the guy was making fun of you, implying that the damage was your fault.

You sugested Tigerdirect, one of the biggest sink holes for moeny I've ever seen. They sell most of there things more expensive then Id ever pay for.

Best Buy isnt that bad at all.

ANd you wernt joking, dont try to fool us.

Actually, Best Buy isn't very good for Computer Hardware. I went there last year (when I didn't know ANYTHING about PCs) and bought a FX 5200 for $130. This was about November 2004. I'm pretty sure a FX 5200 wasn't worth $130 back then.

But its not just best buy. Excellent stores like Fry's also do the same thing. I saw a 9600Pro for $150, a 9800XT for $250, a 6600GT for $250, and a 6800GT for $400 there. These were 2 weeks ago...

Go figure :/

They dont buy in big enough bulk to make the prices cheap. Remember, that most retail prices are determined by the thousands of units bought in bulk, not hundreds or 10s.
