I use Newegg for most tech stuff now, besides that I try to buy direct from manufacturer websites and just use search engines to find products/brands to buy. My wife and I got away from Amazon because the subscription fees are not worth the free shipping, and basically all of the "sales" are the same cost as the manufacturer website or anywhere else
I haven’t paid for prime in two years. When you check out, switch to free shipping. My packages usually arrive earlier than the date they show (that incentivizes prime).
I’m happy… and patient to save all that money they want.
I dropped Newegg when they started bundling GPUs with shit hardware during the pandemic. Some of them known for literally exploding.
