Forums - General Discussion - Newegg.ca Officially opened

Just checked it out tonight.  Their prices against NON NCIX deals are better, however shipping is more, they charge the full GST and PST and are located in the US still.  In the end, I'll stick with NCIX, unless there's some decent shipping promos in the future with Newegg.



Around the Network

Still located in the US is a major turn off for me. It adds to shipping prices and rates, sucks money out of Canada and doesn't create Canadian jobs.

I never knew of NCIX, but if they are Canadian located and hopefully owned, I will definitely look at them and consider them as a viable alternative.



NCIX is located in BC. They have I believe 4 offices, and ship anywhere in Canada. They offer Express Shipping which is based on weight, and sometimes do shipping deals. Every week they release new deals and a newsletter which can net you 25 ncix points. 500 points = Free VIP membership which gives you Free RMA. Considering you can get the 500 points in 5 months, just by signing up for their newsletters, it's pretty decent.

So if you're in any province/territory besides BC, you'll only pay the 5% GST on orders. I use them all the time for my computer needs and I've never had any problems. Their waits for calls are LONG, but that's it.
