The best place for price to buy is <http://www.ebuyer.com/> Very good advice. Apart from "the best place to buy". I'd look around carefully before buying. Prices can vary by a huge amount between stockists. My personal favourite, for service and price (mainly price) would be dabs.com 99% of the time, their prices simply cannot be beaten. And their service/delivery (if the item is showing in stock) is superb. I've ordered things at 4pm, then had them delivered 9am the next day. If its not in stock, decide on the compromise between price and how long you can wait for the item. On a quick check of a Western Digital 200gb internal drive (2000JB) ebuyer wants �166+VAT, dabs want �144+VAT. Both have stock. I'm not saying ebuyer is not good, just that its very hard to beat dabs prices. And always, always check around, I'm constantly amazed at the bargains to be had out there. I recently ordered a Canon printer for �155 from Simply Computers, dabs wanted �165. No one supplier always comes up trumps, but dabs is the one to always compare with.
