[themaster0628]

I am building my own computer and i want to know where I can get cheap stuff. I am cheap. Like cheaper than ebay. please tell me some sites that sell very cheap computer parts. Thank you!

Your going to get what you pay for. If you want cheap, good service and quality parts then try here

http://www.newegg.com

others will reccommend several others. Also check out www.pricewatch.com but be weary of alot of the sites. Please check with www.resellerratings.com before purchaing anything. If you dont you may regret it.

Remember if the price is too good to be true it probably isnt a good place to buy. Many companies will offer great prices with horrible shipping and handling charges and when the prices are combined with the cost of the product you could have done better someplace else.

They suck.

Go with Newegg, they will have everything for cheap, in stock, don't have a problem with returns, and will ship the same day you order it if you order it in the morning 90% of the time.

I believe there is a different place to buy things at individually. Why don't you give us some info of what you're looking to buy specifically(not name brands so to speak, like chipset,memory speed, amd/intel, etc...) and we all would be glad to help.

you could always browse different forums, hoping to find the deal/steal your looking for. Otherwise, you'll rarely find something lower than ebay, unless it's a refurbished item, which, in some cases, are more hassle than the cheapness can make up for.

Try newegg's refurb'ed items. Normally they're pretty good at working the first time.

If you do go eBay, make sure that you know what your top dollar is for an item and stick to it before bidding. I have got some great deals like that but sometimes have had to wait almost a month before I finally got my bargain at my price. Most of my stuff comes from Newegg now.

Newegg.com ROCKS!!! I would be very careful about getting too cheap. You will get burnt if all you are looking for is cheap. I can put together good systems with parts from newegg for 377$ that includes the case that I buy locally (saves on shipping) thats a Duron 1.3 ghz processor with 128megs of ram and an ASUS board with everything built in geforce2 mx video/ AC3 audio/ 10/100 Lan built in. 20gig drive (Western Digital) 54X CDrom. Granted no major bells and whistles but a decent system no the less and you won't get many bells and whistles if you are looking to go cheap.

I think that Ebay prices are not that good at all. Newegg beats them all the time and if you order all the items at once shipping costs are reduced. Mwave is good for motherboard bundles IMO.
