Some vendors list really low prices on pricewatch, but then make up the difference with ridiculous shipping fees (Upgrade Source is a prime example of this). Also, some are known to sell remarked CPUs, and even 66MHz SDRAM as PC100 SDRAM... :-(... (go here to check vendor ratings: http://www.resellerratings.com/a.html - note that Advanced Design of Kentucky isn't listed, new maybe?). At the very least, don't give your CC # until you get shipping quoted. 2. The search text box is your friend. :-) Typing in "abit bp6" and hitting search will normally take less time than the 'drill-down' mouse navigation (at least in my experience).
