I can't go wrong when I give the people whom I love, who loves music, an Apple iTunes gift card ( http://www.apple.com/ ). The denominations run as low as $20/$25 and can be purchased at an Apple store. Visit their site for one nearest you. I liked this option because it eliminates the guesswork - I didn't have to keep track of their favorite music, if they already have it or whatnot. Give them exactly what they like, when they want it.

When I woke up yesterday to the ultimate black-screen-of-death on my PC, I was completely stressed out. I would push the power button and there was not so much as a whir, or even a purr, nary an inkling of life. While that is NEVER a good thing, thanks to RE PC, it wasn't a bad thing either. After an hour or so on the phone, we determined that the internal power supply needed to be replaced. Sounds scary! And I was going to have to wait 48 hours for a tech to come out, then pay a whole lot of money for parts and labor. BUT, someone suggested that I go to RE PC. Well, that was a very good idea. Although they tried to find a used Power Supply for $2.95, we couldn't. That said, I was thrilled that for $24.95 I was able to buy a new one, and they helped guide me through the process of replacing it myself. (They couldn't touch it unless I actually paid them to fix it, but it was both helpful and empowering to have them guide me through it.) Long story short, for $24.95, I was using my computer by dinner time, and am no longer scared of anything, at least not anything inside my computer's tower.

Upon purchasing a new house in Seattle, purchasing a tv (a big one) was on the top of my husband's priority list. He did most of the research online and saw that Best Buy had the best selection and prices. We visited the Bellevue store and while I was less than enthusiastic about the large purchase, the salesman was very patient in understanding what we were looking for and took extra time to explain the pros and cons of each model. We were in and out in less than and hour and a new TV was delivered within the week. It was much less painful than I thought!

This place has decent deals and is one of the less sketchy places. I hate to say it but the only serious safe places to buy computer parts are the bug stores like best buy. This place is one of the better smaller shops though, they offer guarentees on their items! Wow hard to believe. So you are a lot better off here then the other hole in the wall stores.

I love office supply places--they are my weird secret vice. I adore the little independent ones, but of the biggies, Staples is the best. I've always had wonderful customer service from Staples. Naturally, I prefer to go to the store itself because I'm a paper-clip freak, but their website is very easy to use, and I love the fact that they have free next-day shipping if you order $50 worth (not exactly hard to do if you're buying printer cartridges, flash memory, etc.). It has saved me more than once.

I bought a computer there. I have been very happy with it. They have provided very good follow up service whenever I needed it. It was not the most inexpensive computer BUT I am much more interested in it working well.
My company also uses Computer Stop - Aurora and we have been very satisfied.
I would recommend purchasing one of their custom systems - or, having someone who is familiar with computers helping select a system. That is what I did.

Great prices for office supplies and furniture right in central downtown, 4th & Pike. I've purchased chairs that I use in my apartment. The shipping has been free (for orders over $50). They have also have a rebate program.
Large selection of everything from computers to furniture...not always easy to find assistance but when you do, the staff are generally quite helpful.
There are weekly fliers with a wide array of prices slashed.
One caveat: it is NOT easy to return furniture, despite what the sales people may say, as you have to dis-assemble the furniture, which is nigh impossible.

The best known of the paid help sites in this roundup—thanks to quite a bit of television advertising—Geek Squad adds a touch of humor to its service. After a customer support representative took our payment information, we were entertained by several minutes of hold music accompanied by an occasional scream of the horror movie sort. Had we had more at stake on the outcome of this exercise, we might not have been so amused. Geek Squad does offer on-site services, charging $129 to $229 per job, presumably without the music. Have used this service and seems to be very helpful.
