It is true that TigerDirect has no tax in CA. The problem is that most of their sales and promotions really aren't that great of a deal, and they usually charge shipping. I totally disagree, and I have lived in CA all my life. 95% of the time you will pay more "out-the-door" at TigerDirect. It would be nice if Newegg paid the tax, but then again, they are based in CA, a state that is very expensive to do business in. You can't possibly expect such good daily deals and promotions, and have your sales tax paid also. That is just too unrealistic.
