Well, you can get windows 10 for like $30 from kinguin, 1TB hard drive costs $40-$50 ($5-$10 more than a 500gb) which most builds should have and the main reason that people use pcpartpicker is so that they can pricematch it with a store that is the closest to them and don't actually ship them individually. The only time shipping is involved is when it is free shipping which most stores will do if the order is like above $25-$100.

Kinguin is... shady. I'd rather take a chance on my copy of Windows being shut down after a month. I'm not sure what kind of policy your local store has, but there are a ton of asterisks in my local Frys' price match policy. http://www.frys.com/utm_src/page006.jsp?utm_source=lowpriceguarantee&utm_medium=vanityurl&utm_campaign=lowpriceguaranteeoffline Basically they'll price match, but only certain sellers, and only if they get to count the cost of shipping etc.

Well, many people use Kinguin and Windows doesn't stop working for most people after a month... Reputable youtubers even recommended Kinguin as a way to get windows 10 and it also has a cheap protection plan if you are afraid. The store I go to is called memory express which also gives you a discount on top of matching your price but NCIX and many other stores also has a policy where as long as it is in stock, and the store is within the country, they will pricematch it. The great thing about stores is that there is more than one so if Fry's doesn't have good price match, then go to one that does. If you order from ncix or memory express, you can submit the price match online and pick it up instore or have it shipped to you.
