    A friend ordered stuff from PC-Look. took about 7 - 10 days to get there but they are safe. Komplett may be a better idea.

    I've used that crowd about 5 times this past year and each time delivery varied from 3-5 working days. Not the fastest but definitely safe and good - parcel tracking sucks the big one though - anyone got any idea where your parcel goes to after la poste (france) - seems to be SDS but any time I enter my tracking number with SDS it doesn't show up in their system, then the delivery guy typically knocks on my door with the goods shortly after me wondering where the parcel is at :)

    Tact I think you'll find that the SDS System can't handle the original number.... and if you enter it into La Postes website (If they Have one) It'll say something like "With local Delivery Company". As a result of this, I've found that if you ring SDS they will be able to tell you the location of the package.... Roundabout way, but it works.

    Cheers John, that's what I've been doing. Poxy french La poste only ever says the equivalent of - arrived at treatment site Gennevilliers. I usually give it two days from despatch then give sds a bell to harass them about my package :D

    Same here! About this time last year I bought a Zalman North Bridge fan from them for €3.99 that was for sale in Maplins and Peats for €24.99 :rolleyes:

    They are very good for any sort of modding. You won't find much if any traditional parts such as hard disks, mobos, etc

    they will ask you to provide proof of identity and address. i sent them scans of my driving licence and a phone bill. i bought 2 antec sonatas. no problems. very good service.!

    There actually stocking hard drives and motherboards now !! They are always expanding there range.

    I wasent asked for any proof of delivery address or id, guess its done on a more random basis. There delivery worked out pretty decent aswell from what i can remember....
