Need a new Computer or Electronic? Posted: 1 year ago by dollyllama
I don't remember where I got this url from and just went to check it out today. No frills on the graphic end of this site, just straight text. It's like a stock market of prices for computer and electronic equipment. Shows a link and whether the price just went up or down. Mostly computers and electronics (and accessories for those items) but just found a great deal on a canon lens!
