Where to buy? Immediate help needed!

Hello lads, need some help in buying 3 items but the problem is I don't know any store in New Jersey or NY where I just pop in and buy these products without having the need to place orders online and go through time wasting hassles because I'll be flying out of country after Saturday.

1. ASUS Maximus IV Extreme Z

2. Razer Mamba 2012 Elite Ergonomic Wireless Gaming Mouse

3. OCZ Technology 60 GB Vertex 3


Lowest prices I got were at Amazon. Mobo at $339, SSD at $96 and Mouse being sold for $118 respectively. Unfortunately after wasting 6 working days Amazon cancelled my orders due to unavailability of some products.

Any input in this matter would be greatly appreciated.

to get those and a good price, online is really your only option. i don't believe there are microcenters anywhere in the northeast.

i highly recommend AGAINST the mamba 2012. i have had nothing but problems with it on the newest drivers and firmware. read the reviews, this thing drops wireless constantly, as well as stutters and moves on it's own. it's not specific to me either, this is a well-documented issue. they say the new firmware fixed it, but it did not.

Ok dropping Mamba for now will do some research on it before buying. I can pay a little more but I want these items today thats the only condition!

You might want to look at CompUSA, I used to live in New Jersey and I remember that their was one not too far out of the way from Kinnelon and if memory servers it was a rather large one so if you need to find parts I would try and search for it and give them a call to see if they have any of that stuff in stock.

when it works it's great, but i can't even use it in wireless mode for more than 45 mins or so without it dropping, and requiring me to keep the wire plugged in. it looks cool, and is cool - but if you plan to use it wirelessly i'd really think twice.
