Isn't it always $199 there? It's been that price for at least two months here in Chicago.

It could be, but I'm just giving a heads up. :)

The gas and the risk getting a ticket driving 1.5hrs away is not worth it, I'd get it at newegg for $80 more :)

You can visit a restaurant while you are there.

Is your gas milage that bad? Or your driving? I drive that everyday already for work.

Hour and a half of driving, if close to highway driving, isn't even a tank of gas round trip. A tank of gas for me is $26.

Essentially you would be paying $55 more, but saving 3 hours of driving time if you bought from Newegg... and you don't have to wait for mail delivery.......:thup:

I'm about $36/full tank. Newegg shipping in California only takes a day or 2 if you don't order it on a friday. It's also traffic here and as mentioned, risk of getting a ticket... cops cops cops :P
