I have been up to Tigerdirect twice, the (fairly) new
Viva bus system makes getting up to Tigerdirect from
mid-town Toronto (Yonge & Eglinton) fairly painless,
if somewhat time consuming.
It is a mixed bag inside the store, some of the
speciality cables I looked at (and bought) were half
what I would pay along College, on the other hand some
PC accessories that I saw (and did not buy) were
slightly more than what I would pay at favourite
haunts along College St.. One of my purchases at
Tigerdirect was the basis for an article:

At the time that video card was roughly $50 cheaper at
Tigerdirect than anywhere else in the area, easily
worth the time/cost to go to Markham :-) .
In other words a conditional recommend, check their
website first, compare prices, etc., etc., etc.. For a
few things it is worth the time/trouble to go up to
Markham.
