So I'm in the process of looking for new computer parts so I can build my own. Of course, I first checked out newegg. They have the cheapest stuff I've seen so far. But recently I went with my dad to the local computer store/repair shop and we talked about the new Core 2s etc. and he mentinoed that he (the store owner) doesn't like newegg, not because they're cheaper, but because he doesn't trust them. He says they take out parts of computers and remanufacture and sell as new. So I'm asking all of you who have dealt with them (please no secondhand opinions) if you trust them. I read a lot of customer reviews(but you never know who writes those) and most of them talk about RMAing which if I understand correctly is them sending back a defective part and getting a free replacement. But on the other hand a lot also talk about getting a good product quickly. SO what I'm looking for is your opinion of them. The store owner told me I should only buy a processor ro something else that is simple and that they can't open and remove parts.
Edit:
SUMMARY: What do you think of Newegg.com? would or wouldn't you buy from them? if you would, is there any specific items you wouldn't buy?(processors, RAM, Motherboard, etc.)
