Closest one to me is about 85mins each way, I usually try to grab a few things when I go to make it worthwhile.

I would have bought 2 of those 2600x. I just bought a 2600 for a friend system at 150 dollars. 2 2600x for the same price. Wow. I'm jealous ;p

Had this been available in December, I'd've made the drive. Though, for me, that's about 40-45 minutes. Well, probably longer than that in December.

For me that's a 6 hours drive and I need to pass customs. 🙁

Let's say if you did come down here to a Microcenter and bought some parts would it be difficult to bring those back over the border?

I went to Montreal years ago back when you didn't even need a passport and even then border crossing was pretty strict.

I have no idea. Might have to pay some duty / taxes? Not too sure but yeah I would need my passport.

Wish I had a use for one. That's one heck of a deal.

Man you guys got to come to NYC. There are 2 microcenters in NYC. And 2 more in the next neighboring counties of NYC. So I can pick and choose and online if one microcenter is out of stock of something I go to the other one. But right now its actually $99 for 2600x, but you do get $20 off with a motherboard purchase. Microcenter has a good online store which tells you if they're out of stock of an item, so you don't have to waste your time and just find one that has it.
