Best places to buy pc parts post-Brexit?

    Hi all,

    My favourite place to buy PC parts over the years was (and for now still is) Scan UK. I like them because their prices are good, good selection and well organised in terms of how you can break down your search for and compare various similar things. But with the whole Brexit transition phase phaseout thing, that might soon cease to be a sensible option if there are import duties on UK-Ireland trade. Whenever I've bought stuff on Amazon that's been from their UK site as well.

    I don't like buying everything from Amazon but I'm not overly familiar with the alternatives. Komplett was great years ago but these days its selections are limited in some respects. MemoryC looks good for RAM and a few other odds and ends, but again, not everything.

    What say ye - post Brexit where will you be buying processors, graphics card, cases and the like?

    Many people are buying from Germany.
    There's a thread linked in one of the stickies with helpful names. Albeit, it still lists HardwareVersand (which has closed for a number of years) and doesn't list MindFactory.
