| NCIX Vancouver Expands Again
Looks like they're moving the consumer retail store into the old Blockbuster near burrard and broadway and keeping the old one as a business center. NCIX Opens New Retail Store & Business Center in Vancouver, B.C.
So who's gonna line up? lol

$90 can't even get you a 500gb HDD now, that is if it's even in stock.

That would be nice. Their Burnaby location fucking blows and I'd gladly drive a few more minutes down the road to the old Anitec building if they moved (assuming, of course, I still lived there, which I don't :P)

If not memory express or NCIX, what decent options do I have now?
Would be nice to find a place with competitive prices and a decent selection of stuff. A-power seems like neither of those two requirements.

W$GT$... West side get the money
NCIX rebranded a few years back to become more retail oriented and less "atic pc" style of business. They haven't done so as well as memory express but its definitely working for them. Being on the west side gets more exposure and attracts all on this side of town, also being close to future shop helps quite a bit. NCIX does a lot of marketing, joe blow is going to think twice about buying certaik items from future shop when they can walk a few minutes and save some dollars. Also if you look at growth the west broadway and kits areas are growing in population, but at the same time the residents are less likely to drive to practically burnaby to save a buck.

I just picked up a BlueAnt Q2 BT headset, it was on sale for $80 at NCIX and $120 at FS, so I brought up the NCIX ad on my phone, showed it to a FS sales person, they price matched - 10% with no hassle.
