not too bad no?

I figure i should upgrade my timeline x with 8gb vs 4 no?
I picked up mushkin blackline SODIMM PC3-12800 DDR3-1600 for $35 2x 4GB from NCIX couple of weeks ago. It might go that price during boxing day

Since RFD has an inexplicable obsession with surge protectors.. here.

Reviews seem good but probably not the cheapest it's been.

NCIX is going out of business, they can't even afford to have sponsored posts on RFD. Looks like the owner really messed up expanding to the east and US. Ouch ouch ouch.

Also, their website has issues and doesn't seem to work well with two countries. Newegg works much better, for instance, with distinct websites (Newegg.ca and Newegg.com). They should have made NCIX.com exclusive to the US, and made NCIX.ca exclusive to Canada. I find sometimes I end up surfing the US NCIX site by accident or vice-versa. Also, it appears their credit card processing is still done in Canada. On their checkout screen in the US it says "Please note that we are currently processing orders in Canada and as such, some banks may charge a Foreign Transaction Fee. We are in the process of transitioning our order processing to the US which should be finalized shortly.". It has said that for months. Not exactly welcoming to a US resident ordering from them.
true. maybe they have bad credit.

Why would they bother when people post their sales for free and everyone knows about it. I don't see them going out of business anytime soon to be honest.

ncix sucks.

- Mail in rebates on 99.9% of items that go on sale.
- Never price match.
- Crap deals.
- Very rare to get free shipping on good items.
- Website layout sucks.

I could careless if ncix kicks the bucket.

Just wanted something that I can put DD-WRT on, and this has gigabit and N, which is what I needed.
was $25 last month with free express shipping. Got 2. Range isn't great, but worth the price easily. Using toastman's tomato build.


ALSO, anyone else get an email saying to give Asharp 50 points or be removed from the rewards auto-claimer? I might have actually done it if not for the ultimatum smh

Man, I disagree with all of that. You guys think NCIX owes it to you to lose money for you to save money. It's a business. They are operating on a very low margin. I know no local mom and pop shop comes close to NCIX prices so its unrealistic to say they don't have any deals or sales. If you were to compare NCIX's entire store vs another Canadian store's entire store, I will bet you NCIX is lower for more products.

Everything I buy from ME is at little margin or at a loss. Same with Newegg. So I don't see ME outlasting NCIX if I was to guess who would go out of business first. I have no loyalty to ME since there are no local stores to me and I've had some poor customer service issues with them.

Are you implying RFD would be better with less moderation? I find it to be quite the opposite.

So the email confirming that we should give ASharp 50 reward points is a joke/hoax? We won't get removed lol?

If so ASharp your friend is a dingbat, scaring/threatening others like that is not cool. What if someone reported the email to NCIX? Lol.
