Best place to buy components?

I've finally decided to build my own computer. It should take me about a few hours to build one because I was taught how by a friend of mine whos a technician.

Future seems like a good place for parts such as video card and burner. Where exactly can I find the power supply and cases?

Also consult www.resellerratings.com before buying anything from a store listed in PriceWatch though.

I believe that they are in BC and if anything is refurbished it should be clearly indicated.

Burnaby, B.C. to be exact.

I would say order from me, but to be honest, I can't compete with their pricing. There's a couple things I can compete on, but we're not online either.

I got parts from the following places.

Kustom PCs
Ebuyer
Dabs
Komplett

For best service, try Kustom. For cheapest prices, try Ebuyer.
