I am thinking of going to the good old US of A on a buying trip, thanks to the weak dollar. Does anyone know of a department superstore that has all computer hardwares at cheap prices in the New York area.
Alternatively is there an online store that stands out as the best for value that ships to the UK minus the taxes. It would be good to compare prices before I go and if they dont ship to the UK maybe I could have them sent to the hotel.
Also while I am here, is there such shops in europe where I can avoid paying the rip off prices we pay for everthing in the UK.
THANKS FOR THE HELP.

Data Vision, CompUSA, Circuit City. There r lil stores around the city where u can get Bargains. CDW also has great prices and they r based in Chicago. Here at my job we use them almost exclusively and I use it personally as well. Anywhere u turn here in NY there is a computer store.. so don't worry bout not finding one (which I knw ur probably not worried).... Good luck!!!

honestly, i dont think you can better components at better prices if you shop at
http://www.newegg.com/I love that place, and they have fast service. I suggest you check them out before you check the big circuit city's, best buy's, etc.
Just my 2 cents...

If you come to the western US I would recommend Fry's Electronics.
Canada does sound like the best bet however!
