List updated. Thanks for your submissions guys.
DJ, you can clean/delete the posts if you'd like so it's easier to track what's new and what's not.

I should have a small discount soon through ADP Mods the owner is trying to see what he can do for us. I will post back as soon as I hear anything, he had always offered users a discount when i was mirroring Omega drivers and not one person clicked his banner and actually purchased something so he was hesitant but said he will try his best to offer something soon

Here's a link I find useful for canadians : http://www.pricenetwork.ca/
You can search for a computer product and it will give a list of canadian retailers that have it along with prices. Be careful as some of these retailers are smaller and less well known.
I used this website the last time I bought from NCIX. It allowed me to find cheaper prices for the products I was purchasing and NCIX price matched them. |

http://techtastic.pricenetwork.ca/br...endors.php?c=1
i suggest using using the search option here...
http://techtastic.pricenetwork.ca/
then find the cheepest prices and use www.dangeo.com to order your parts they'll price match the cheepest price u find on techtastic, FREE SHIPPING, i think on orders over 500... good thing is you get everything from one place... |

This is sad news as ADPMods has always treated me with nothing but respect since the first dealing I had with them years ago. Go visit and perhaps find something you need before it's too late.

http://www.directcanada.com
prices are amazing. free shipping too. however so far not a good experience. I made an order on Tuesday morning. For some reason payment failed. Although I know the information was correct and there was enough mongh on the credit card. So i call them wednesday morning to see what the issue was. I wait on hold for 30 minutes yet the whole time i was 'first in line, the next agent will answer your call.' When the agent came online i could hardely understand him. He spoke very weak english, and to top it off he was too far from the mic/phone i could barely hear him. From what i did hear of him, he didn't tell me anymore info than i already knew. He didn't know why the payment failed yet it stated on the status email to contact them for more information. I told him the information is right and try to process the payment again. He said he would, then would send me an email about the status afterwards. That was tuesday morning. I've yet to hear anything. Definately not recommended.

This is a great thread, I have been looking for new parts for my new build and have been looking for good onlinme dealers. a good site I found was www.BBF.ca
this will find the best price on the part you type in -it only searches companies that are memebers I guess if you look thourgh though you can see alot of differences in some prices. I mean $100 difference I have seen on certain parts! -thx for the links and info guys this will help out alot.. |

Also NCIX weekly sales can be quite good so worth checking out. Shipping cost can be high depending on the order (e.g. a PC case), but they have shipping promotions on numerous items and occasionally have shipping promotions. They also have a strong forum.
One note is that for provinces outside of BC that don't have HST, there is no provincial sales tax. |

You don't need to wait for shipping deals with directcanada though . $8.99 for express shipping for almost everything, and orders over $300, free shipping.
Just an FYI, directcanada and NCIX are sister companies, the service should be almost exactly the same for both. |
