Where in the world do you buy?

Continuing on from the last few pasts I again thought about where do people buy there computer equipment or software.

I will normally buy from ebuyer, but of course there are others to choose from. Scan, Avia, PC World, Dabs, Micro Anvika etc.

So where do people buy their parts form on a personal or corporate level.

Just be interested to see if as a group we could work out a Developer Discount with one of the big guys?

May the Scotch Be With You

Ebay of course :-D

Some how I think you'd struggle to get a discount out of them though :-(

I buy all my equipment from new egg. Time is money and they are usually the lowest on at least most of the stuff I'm buying. I'm not going to be counting pennies either. I like Dell Outlet as well for good monitor deals.

Newegg has great customer support and if you put everything on the new egg card, you'll get your stuff within a few days (free express processing)

I've been buying from ebuyer, Misco, Dell and occassionally Scan. It really depends on where the best deals are coming from.

Not used them in a while but Overclockers.co.uk used to be really good for price and customer service. They've grown a bit since I last used them as well by the looks of it.
