Scan! I wouldn't touch them with a barge pole after the really bad service i had with them. They sent me the wrong motherboard and wouldn't take it back, without a lot of shouting.
I'm sure ebuyer (slow delivery but cheap) or dabs (slightly more money but next day service) will be open. Dan |

Watford Electronics all the way as far as I'm concerned. Some of the cheapest around and good delivery rates.

The reason I use Scan is that they are only 5 minutes drive away and if you can stand the queues you get your stuff 1/2 an hour after you order it. So no problems with wrong stuff etc. no delivery charge, damaged in transit etc. Dabs which are only about 2 miles away from Scan fecked up by closing their sales desk and going delivery only. Upto that point I had always used Dabs especially in the very early days when they were based in Leyland
TBH the only problem I ever had with Scan was a copy of Norton Ghost where the licence key was damaged where some adhesive tape had been torn off and they changed it immediately. Well about 6 minutes and discovered the problem whilst looking at what I had bought still in the shop.
