I just need a new keyboard, this one is dying on me. I haven’t bought computer parts in the US in a long time. What am I supposed to do, BestBuy? Amazon? NewEgg? The last time I built a computer was 2018 in Asia. Idk what I’m doing but my space bar is sticking and my patience is running low. Duct Tape is holding the metal bar together right now lol and the ctrl key is giving out too

    Best Buy

    Definitely not, unless you absolutely need something same day. Their selection and prices suck, though they do price match.

    My preference is:

    1. Direct from the manufacturer
    2. B&H Photo
    3. Newegg
    4. Amazon
    5. EBay - used, if it’s a really good deal

    If the keyboard is the only problem, get a good mechanical one. As others have said, Keychron is good if you want a pretty good keyboard for a pretty good price, though there are some other decent options around $50. Be careful though, because there’s a lot of crap out there.
