Kids Online Canadian Stores

Does anybody know of any good online stores in Canada that sell heatsinks, fans, and other computer hardware? The stores from the U.S. are amazing and have great selections, but the shipping to Canada is usually $10+++ (I've seen it as much as $35 for regular air mail to Canada!!!).

If there aren't any good stores in Canada, does anybody know of any stores from the U.S. that have decent shipping prices to Canada? Please let me know! Thanks.

www.dealsdirect.ca (Ottawa based) I've dealt with these people before, they're not bad, but cheaper prices can be found elsewhere.

Infonec doesn't ship as far as I can tell. You have to walk in, strictly brick 'n mortar.

BTW. the PcCanada site has a listing for "The Competition" some of these sites might ship as well, and not always are they more expensive. They are all in the GTA.

NCIX has their own little system. They are their own warehouse people complain about "in-stock" items not shipping right away. Well the stock status is listed from their warehouse NOT from the store... so it may take a day or two for them to drop ship the items from the warehouse... (pretty funny actually) but stay away from the store when the UPS guy shows up!! It's better now but there was like 10 feet of sales space and the rest was filled with hundreds of boxes... somewhere in the boxes was the internet order guys and packers... LOL it was hilarious. They managed everything with a Cold Fusion web app. so it still ran smoothly despite the seemingly contradictory view when in the store... Good prices, decent service... The internet guys are the best to deal with.. and PRICEMATCH! USE IT! Go find the lowest price then order from them... (It doesn't always work... sometimes they bought stock just before price dropped... and since that was ALL I was buying they made me pay $5 more then they bought it for.. or so they said)

Good store overall.. and if they rip you off... I'll go and pay them a visit on your behalf!!
