    I have come across one good site i.e.CompUSA which offers the best deal for computers & laptops with lower prices and faster shipping. You buy it today - it ships today! You can shop smart with the latest money saving coupons for CompUSA and get cash back rebates when you shop through Pennyful.com.

    So check it out: http://www.pennyful.com/IndividualStore.aspx?mid=2...

    These 2 sites are really good for buying pc's on line...Newegg.com and Tigerdirect.com...There very reliable and trust worthy sites...Good prices with fast shipping...Best Buy is overpriced for what you get and ebay is not a good site to buy a pc...I am saying that from experience as I sell pc parts on there..Stick to the well known trusted sites...AVA Direct is another good site....and you get very good warranties...

    Newegg------http://www.newegg.com/Store/SubCategory.aspx?SubCa...

    Tiger direct--http://www.tigerdirect.com/sectors/category/comput...

    AVA Direct------http://www.avadirect.com/
