Computer Parts - Canada

Anyone from Canada know a good place to order parts online within Canada? Preferably Southern Ontario. I'm looking for good prices, selection, and service. I have contacted one place, but they took a week just to get back to me. Also, I am looking for a GeForce3 Ti 500 video card for my new system and it seems that no one here in Canada has them in stock, or they do not carry them. I'm having a hell of a time finding a place with good prices, selection, and service, and I am trying to avoid buying from U.S. to avoid import duties and taxes. Besides, half the good places to order online in the U.S. do not ship internationally. HELP! :) -- Scott Flynn

Dude :) Try this store in toronto. There're 2 locations, 1 in missisauga and another in markham. I find the Markham store sales are more knowledgable. The intersection is woodbine and steeles. Take the 401, exit at 404 north, then exit at steeles. The exit faces directly on a street called woodbine, just drive straight and look to you left, about two driveways north. I don't know of any stores that ships close to southern ontario. http://www.logiccomputerhouse.com/ -bron "Scott Flynn" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

This place seems pretty good. I've purchased quite a bit of stuff from them over the last year. http://www.dealsdirect.ca/ Wayne Hutchison "Scott Flynn" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I usually deal with Infonec in the GTA, but I don't think they have online sales... Their prices are good though. www.infonec.com "Scott Flynn" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I bought a computer from them once. Warranty service was real bad. Let's just say, never again. I get my parts from here. No online store though. http://www.canadacomputers.com/ I hear these guys are a good online Canadian store. They are in Vancouver. http://www.ncix.com/canada/

I've bought a few things online from www.ncix.com - shipping to Ottawa take longer than advertised, but good selection and competitive prices. Brian "Scott Flynn" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

This link (http://www.monitor.ca/marketplace/index.html) gives you a large list of suppliers in the Ottawa-Carleton area, many of which I'm sure would be happy to ship to your end of Ontario. I'll second Wayne's recommendation of Deals Direct, and add http://www.networksupply.ca/ . Despite the name, they carry a lot of other computer gear too. Last time I was in, they had a GeForce3 Ti 500, but I can't recall the brand. ...Klinn

www.atic.ca is a good site, it's somewhere in BC though "Scott Flynn" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Sorry dude, Forgot to add that yeah, don't buy a computer from them :P but getting a vid card is alright. I don't worry about warranty cuz I don't break things. But you know what? This thread is quite informative. I'm living in hong kong now, and was an immigrant to canada, and now a citizen, having been living in toronto for 12 years. This thread made me proud to be a Canadian. Yeah I call myself that eventhough I was born in hong kong. One question -- tonnes of help, that's the way we do it up north.

Stay away from Atic. Good prices, horrible service. Remember the Soup Nazi on Seinfeld? Thats, Atic. eejit On Wed, 6 Feb 2002 12:00:10 -0600, "Mike" <[email hidden]> wrote:

Locally they only use the website as an advertising space for their walk in customers, the website is usually out of date anyway. "Scott Flynn" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

Where are you? Premier Computer Canada (www.pccanada.com) is the best Toronto outlet for combination of price and service...but drop in on them in person if you are local. Marc "Scott Flynn" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I can also recommend Canada Computers, if you're near London. Saved me almost $80 over BuyKool.com when I purchased a GF2 GTS Deluxe. Picked up other miscellaneous parts as well. Prices are close to everyone else or better and service has been ok so far. --Ed Eppel, aka -- -- __<TANK>===--- � -- ....<O_o_o_o_O>.....
