Looking for good service, low prices, supplier
I purchase a lot of parts for customers.
I need to find a supplier that will provide really low prices but
provide the service I need to keep it running smoothly.
If anyone knows of such a supplier please post.
Thanks
Michael

I usually use newegg.com for all my, and my customer's, hardware needs.
For software, I will usually use 9software.com.

You might pick a place you like the best and see if they do volume discounts, or have "reseller" benefits.

I like newegg but they aren't always cheap.
I get most my business by being able to supply parts
at lowest fees. Remember I have to add a percentage to the parts to cover the time I spend ordering. This means if I buy
a part at retail, I end up charging more than retail.
Forgot to add, I am not a reseller. I repair and build systems.
This is why I order so many parts. I don't sell parts.

Same here, I just don't have any real competition around. Every computer shop around here charges at least double what Newegg sells stuff for. Makes my prices look extremely good.

Where I live, there are no real computer stores. There is a Circuit City, and an Electronics Boutique, but that is it. Everything is at least list price, and CPU's, motherboards, scsi controllers and such, generally aren't available except online. If one does their own repair, you have to order the parts. I can't complain about Newegg's or 9software's prices either.
