The problem with mail order is that it always takes a long time to get the stuff you ordered.  I'm pricing stuff on newegg right now and it's a bit tempting.  An NVMe drive 4 times larger than my current SSD is $50, but I'd have to buy a new board, CPU, and RAM to go around it, and that'd be like $550 in total.  Moot point, I don't have time to spend putting a new machine together until the middle of March.
