I've spent a total of $2776.78 at Newegg over 5 years, 13 days (since my first order) ... that's $1.51 a day over five+ years! I'm sure that's nothing for the nuts around here who upgrade every 15 minutes (*ahem*Mothow*ahem*) ;) Of course this doesn't include other sites and/or local shopping for parts. :)

Use http://www.timeanddate.com/date/duration.html to find out the number of days since your first order. Works best if you've been shopping on Newegg for a while ... because if your first order was only today and you spent $1000 ... well then, that's $1000 a day! :D

I have to be close to, if not over $10000 since um, 2003 or 2004. There's 7 pages of orders so I won't take the time to add it up. There's a lot of orders in there that aren't for me too (I was the middleman).

Yeah I have a few of those in there too that I didn't include.

I wish you hadn't posted this. $6,083.51 since 3/1/2005 ~= $5.23/day. LOL. Of course, that's four whole computers plus many many parts, so at least I have something to show for it :P

$0 for me, they don't ship to my place.

Don't rule out AMD so fast, they can't be the best all the time. ;)

Damn you, McFly! Why didn't you post this two days ago? It's been 1339 days since I started shopping at Newegg. I've spent a total of $4494.85 there, at an average $3.36 there per day. :D

Nice. :D

Ahem, shameless plug:

http://www.hardwareanalysis.com/content/topic/66263/

As for subject at hand, I don't spend that much at Newegg because I frequently order from other places that are cheaper. I end up spending about $3k/year on various computer stuff, including server parts and upgrades.

I wasn't including those. I have at least a couple of $500-600 (and one $2100 order for a 1337 system :P) orders on there that were paid for by somebody else, I just built the systems.

I have only spent a total of $727 since 2005 on Newegg, because I tend to order things from various other places such as ClubIT, ZipZoomFly, FrozenCPU, and Performance-PCs in addition to Newegg. Newegg is rarely the cheapest these days, but they are still very competitive.

OK, for me, at home, it works out to $10.81/day since Aug 2005.
I've ordered most of my HW/SW since 2001 online, with the occasional trip to Best Buy or Circuit City...Since 2001 I've spent something in the area of $100K (over time, not per day :))

Man... I am too shameful to admit my spending figure. We should have a "Hardware-holic Anonymous" section in this forum. LOL.;)
