Sadly there is a real dearth of any real competition with any competent stock aside from the varous MemEx's in the city. It's probably the critical mass of those kinds of stores around.
All the other shops seem to be out of date, overpriced, and have limited selection. I don't know how they stay in business. One store that used to be a good alternative to MemEx was BCOM computers which used to be across the street from Memory Express but their Calgary location went out of business.
Even MemEx has a very limited selection I've found. They only carry a few brands and I usually have to look online.
