TigerDirect[1] is a solid alternative to Newegg, that doesn't appear to have succumbed to the easy buck of the marketplace model.

Funny that TigerDirect is now the solid alternative to Newegg. Ten years ago it was the complete opposite. Sad to see how Newegg have destroyed themselves.

TigerDirect has a terrible interface for trying to find the product you want. For instance, if you are looking for a laptop you can filter by price and by brand--that's it.

MicroCenter has sophisticated filtering ala Newegg, but in laptops for example, there is exactly 1 model that sports any AMD processor at all.

After more than 20 years of ecommerce growth, it is discouraging how bad things are.
