DealSonic.Com vs. NewEgg

http://www.resellerratings.com/seller2792-p2.html

Looks good...and I just ordered an Antec True430, Antec ATX Power Supply Tester (it was free), Antec PC Lighter Adapter, Arctic Silver™ 3 (III) Premium Silver Polysynthetic Thermal Compound 3g/2cc Tube, and a Heroichi HEC-400LD-T 400W ATX PSU.

Total: $134.15

Not bad, not bad I say! Since NewEgg just completely lied to me the last I dealt with them, and I was having problems getting undamaged goods from them anyway, I've been on the lookout for an excellent replacement. Now, I haven't looked around DealSonic that much yet, as the way things have been working without NewEgg is I have to piece mail sometimes (they sure did have a big selection). But I've had fewer hardware problems this way, so I'll definitely take that trade.

But, anyway, I like to check my totals against NewEgg's sometimes, and this was one of the more impressive comparisons I've done vs. NewEgg.

Newegg didn't have a 400W HEC, and I didn't get the car adapter nor the tester.

350W HEC, True430, and Arctic Silver 3. 3-gram( 1 cc. ) tube.

Total there: $140.99 (both totals include shipping, of course)

Nearly $7 cheaper at DealSonic, and I got a better HEC PSU, a free tester, and a car adapter! WOOT WOOT!

Just wanted to thank NewEgg again for never refunding the shipping costs that I was assured would be refunded after that last case arrived smashed to bits, despite multiple communications (note underlying cynicism). I may have never found these guys!

Badda Bing, Badda Boom! My order arrived today!

That was quick on FedEx's part (and DealSonic for getting out in <24 hours). FedEx 5-7 Day gave a window through next Thursday!

But my babies have arrived in good shape, well packed, and in excellent fashion. And did I mention how awesome the price was!?!? Of course I did...

Gonna order a few more of the 400W HEC's. Those are a killer deal.
