I'm trying to buy a new HD from komplett, because they fulfill the above criteria, however I can't cos their ordering system is up shit creek (I need to change my credit card details and can't) :(

Can anyone recommend another site that I can get a 200Gb drive from for under ?150 (inc next day shipping)

details of the komplett drive are [url=https://www.komplett.co.uk/k/ki.asp?action=info&sku=112810&p=&t=&l=&AvdID=1&CatID=&GrpID=&cks=SER]here[url][/url]

I have ordered a S-ATA 200GB drive and an ati radeon 9800 XT from overclockers.co.uk, which should have arrived over a week ago, however due to an incompetant delivery company it hasn't arrived yet.

Still last time I ordered they were very speedy (i think it was a different delivery option do *not* ever use AXIM for deliveries)


I have ordered:
Maxtor DiamondMax Plus9 Serial ATA 200GB 8MB Cache - OEM (HD-027-MD)
Price: ?113.00 (?132.78 Including VAT at 17.5%)

Just ordered a 250Gb drive from overclockers.co.uk on your recommendation Spud (So obviously I'll hold you responsible if they screw up ;) )

So far, I'm VERY impressed with their service, they have a phone line (with Realpeople(tm)) a forum (!) and a helpful and friendly CS team. Their prices aren't the lowest (komplett beat them (just)), but I'm more than happy to pay a couple of quid more to recieve good service.

Took your recommendation not to use amtrak and went for special royal mail delivery (which I think means I should recieve it tomorrow!)

Thanks Spud

LOL.

Every-one has the favorite places to order stuff, and they are always roughly in the same price band! I get all mine through wholesale or Computer Markets

And how come Satan has

You need to shower, that's all.

Or stop drinking alot, as that's why bums smell like shit.
/it's a 50% chance they didn't shit they're pants.

Cause if you drink for a living, your liver and kidneys block alot of stuff which just secretes from your pours.
Causing the shit smell.
