I just ordered a case/power supply combo from tigerdirect.ca (hated to pay shipping on a case, but it was a clearence deal and I just had to!), and I've also ordered parts from NCIX.com. The shipping costs usually still leave stuff far below local costs. But if you've got a local place you want to support, good for you.

My local place is awesome in that it's local and 99% of their stuff is cheaper than the online Canadian retailers.
Just as an example, NCIX has an Athlon 64 3200+ Retail for $210.38 and my local shop is selling the same one for $188.99. A BFG GeForce 6600GT OC 128MB PCI-E from NCIX is $204.06, whereas my local shop sells them for $204.99.
I'm gonna stick with my local shop for the prices and the convenience :)
