www.newegg.com best prices, excellent cust. service

www.mwave.com prices a bit higher, larger selection, excellent cust. service

www.directron.com

Newegg is the absolute best IMO. Multiwave will carry the older stuff a bit longer.

Get the message? Others may appear less money, but they get you with shipping and handling or you have to jump through hoops, like sending them a hand signed letter with a copy of your driver's license (it happened to me), to get them to send you the deal by Priority Mail or if you want to pay 25 bucks you can skip this and they will send a 4 oz CPU to you via UPS Ground.
Newegg is straight forward with their prices, the CPU will come packed in a plastic container to protect it, and it will get to you in a couple of days instead of two weeks.

I like Newegg and MWAVE.

Here is a thread with a pretty sizeable list of vendors.

Don't forget to go to http://www.resellerratings.com/ if you find a place on PriceWatch... You might find Low prices but get hit with poor customer service and High shipping costs... Newegg.com is the best IMO...
