i live in the uk, i think the best possible place to buy computer parts is ebay because it is in most cases the cheapest place to go and its also international. also you can re-sell your parts when you upgrade!!

Novatech

Some of the most helpful people I have ever met. I buy everything from there and have never ever had a problem.

There prices are also excellent, shipping is fast and they have the best tech support anywhere!

Yeah I use eBay alot aswell.
I just shop around and find the cheapest price.
Have used http://www.overclockers.co.uk/ a few times.
But yeah just wherever is cheapest I have even bought stuff form the States before,even with the extra shipping costs it turned out cheaper.

UK
I love overclockers.co.uk
For no reason. Loyalty thing I guess.

Germany
preissuchmaschine.de
Get the cheapest you can get. In my opinion the most reliable price comparisson website for any country ever.
Or specifically, alternate.de
They often have some good offers on, good when you are buying your whole system instead of just a single part (bundle rebattes now and then.

Netherlands / Austria / Belgium / Spain
alternate.nl / .co.at / .be / .es
Same site, just for other locales.

Another vote for www.ebuyer.com .... aftersales can be a nightmare though

For consumables, blank disks and small bits & bobs SVP are good and have great aftersales service.
