I'm planning to buy a case and a monitor, hence resulting in extremely ridiculous shipping charges at many places. Anybody know of a good place to shop with free shipping ?
Thanks.

You will pay for shipping, one way or another. I like to shop at www.pricewatch.com (http://www.pricewatch.com) . Look for the best price and then check the shipping. Sometimes they build a little "handling" charge into what they blame on UPS. A higher base price and truthful shipping charges sometimes is best.

Dabs Direct
www.dabs.co.uk (http://www.dabs.co.uk)
gives free shipping for online orders, but UK orders only I am afraid.
Not the cheapest place on the planet, but their service is good in my experience.
Prices fluctuate daily, so keep checking.
I ordered an AOpen HX08 full tower case, and all the stuff to go in it, gross weight about 25kgs. Hate to think what that would have cost me by courier.

Two major vendors that give free shipping are:
www.outpost.com (http://www.outpost.com)
www.necx.com (http://www.necx.com)
Though I know with outpost.com its limited to $100 worth, and with necx it can only be UPS ground (Where as outpost it can be any shipping you want upto that $100)

AuraEdge: Not everyone can buy where they live. Even though I am in a town of 175,000, I still buy online as much as possible because I can easily save 30-50% or even more. The markups here are terrible. And I appreciate every vendor that charges free shipping or at least honest shipping prices.

Here's one more. I only used them once, but they shipped the fastest among the orders I placed! www.Onsale.com (http://www.Onsale.com)

I'll agree with Joel. I am such an online buyer freak, that I buy most everything online. I live in a town of about 30,000, and going to the local computer shop is a joke. They wanted to charge my $50 for an ATX power supply! I go to Pricewatch for all my computer needs, and ebay for basically everything else. http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif I save so much more money (even with shipping) and I don't have to deal with the idiots in my town http://www.sysopt.com/forum/wink.gif
