They are marginally interesting in that they carry some diverse things
that (the still rather diverse!) Canada Computers doesn't carry.  For
instance, they carry a goodly variety of unlocked mobile phones, which
CC doesn't.

But I always find visits to the storeroom curious.  There's a mix of
rows where there's somewhat interesting stuff.  And then there's the
section stacked with cases that are, well, "different than the
average," but that look like cheap attempts to make decorative PC
cases that I'd under no circumstances buy, even if they weren't rather
pricey.

NCIX carries a lot more of the "extra electronic gadgets" (such as
mobile phones), which is likely to make TigerDirect rather less
interesting.
