I want to send my assistant a gift card for an online computer store as he lives out in the boonies in the States.

What is the best online store with the best prices, selection, & knowledgeable staff?

Thanks

No doubt it is the Newegg online store that has the best products at the best price and the best service. Tiger Direct comes in as second and many other smaller stores are very good. No other on-line store can beat Newegg's prices or service.

Thanks, that seems to be the general consensus.

I hope they have gift cards b/c that's what I need.

Take care :)

It's TigerDirect for me, although I will go to newegg for the reviews and ratings. I have never ever had a problem with TigerDirect - and they take MasterCard! :)

Newegg doesn't take MC? Say wha? I beg to differ. I just bought some ram from them on my MC two weeks ago, I also bought a jump drive a couple days after that.

Since it wasn't mentioned, I have found some, and I repeat some, good deals at geeks.com.

Seems to be a hit or miss thing with them. I've seen better prices than newegg and then some really really high prices there.

EDIT: Didn't relize this post started Nov 2008. Maybe they didn't take MC then. I don't know.
