FESTERS PLACE

Did anyone start the thread for the best cheapest places to get certain parts ram, monitors, etc etc online?

It is relevant to my interests, and would be handy to have all the best places for getting stuff linked in one place!

got a new 42 inch tv, so i'm wanting to try tf2 on that when i get me a new pc! hopefully form the sites ye provide

http://www.overclockers.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
excellent service and genuine customer reviews about kit

http://www.ebuyer.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
good service again, and good prices

Can't fault those two above. Used them both for a good few years.

ebuyer do a very nice line of long HDMI cables which are cheap. I've got a 5m cable for the TV and it does exactly whats needed.

Another good site (although I find it horrendously designed) is http://www.scan.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

http://www.scan.co.uk Good prices, delivery is 3 working day to ireland
http://www.hardwareversand.de Good prices, €30 flat delivery charge. takes about 2 weeks. gotta pay them by bank transfer which delays the process a bit, unless you pay the bank €20 to send it fast

I'm a big fan of ebuyer/scan

Overclockers Uk are good but there returns system is a bit fail lol

I bought all my parts from Amazon.

I'm a big fan of komplett myself, buy most of my stuff there!

i use novatech
i cant fault them for anything, good stuff, good prices and the after sales support is great. my pc died about a year ago, so they sent a van to pick it up, fixed it and brought it back for free

anyone ever order from http://www.hardwareversand.de" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ?

prices seem pretty decent, wondering if they are reliable tho!


EDIT: also if i get a bunch of stuff cheap from germany or similar am I gonna get raped by customs?

I've used them, Seem reliable enough. I haven't dealt with any returns.
No rape by customs. Flat €30 delivery no matter what weight/size your order is.
Downside is they dont accept credit cards, bank transfer only. Gotta pay bank €20 or so for fast transfer(<1 week) or wait normal transfer time(~2 weeks) and risk your products going outta stock.

Check your same order with scan and convert from sterling. I bet it's about the same and will be less hassle in the long run methinks.

Good luck with ordering dude
