I've bought a lot of stuff from Computer Geeks (www.compgeeks.com) over the
last 3 years or so and have been very happy with them. The prices are good
and the equipment (even surplus/used) has arrived promptly and in great
condition. With the one thing I received which didn't work correctly (a
floppy drive, DOA), they gave me an RMA without question and cross-shipped
it's replacement without me even asking for that. I have no hesitation in
recommending them.

Now, you DO have to watch the writeups on the items though, since they have
a lot of surplus gear and it's not always compatible with other things they
have (like the Socket7 motherboard they have for $21 right now and that AMD
K6-266 processor). And once in awhile they won't send you all the
instructions you need to get something going. But their email tech support
has responded within a day or so with everything I've needed so far.
