    They are very solid, quite possibly my favorite online vendor - not related to camera equipment that is.

    I've bought from them countless number of times, all the while nothing but good experiences.

    but of course....http://www.resellerratings.com/store/Tiger_Direct

    I could be wrong?

    I've never had any issues, leave it at that ;)

    I think 'white box' means just that. Like if you buy a hard drive from Tiger it will usually come in just a regular box - not like an OEM box as if you were to purchase it from the store @ Best Buy or whatever.

    Again this doesn't have a rebate... I am more worried about the product coming than a rebate.

    TD is a great company...also, their rebates are handled 3rd party, so its not TD's fault if they don't come...I have ordered lots from them and still do...also, check with newegg...they often carry the same things, and them and TD compete with prices...you might can find that phone a little cheaper.

    honestly i always considered newegg expisive, but again only looked at cpus and those a bit costly haha so ill go look at newegg and let you know.

    Also yea i am just being smart and not really counting on the rebates. knowing my dad well be lazy to send in anyways haha considering we havent done it for my laptop, his laptop and our pcs haha.

    Just cheaked and they don't have unlocked phones =(, i hate contracts haha i am mad i am stuck with cingualar. AT&T again haha was at quest with at&t than verison and now cingualar.

    never really used them...I prefer to stick to td or newegg, depending on what I buy...both have a warehouse really close so I usually get things next day while paying for standard ground...
