    Hey guys, Im building a pc and becasue the Irish stores are too overpriced, is it safe to order from hardwareversand.de? Has anyone had any experiences? Do they charge 11.99 for shipping each part?

    Thanks, when you get the power supply, will it be a UK plug or the ones they use in Germany?

    That depends on the power supply. I got a German plug, a friend got a UK one, both from Be Quiet! So I don't know how tats decided.

    Might be mentioned on the product page

    Even if you get a German plug that's easy enough to solve - you might have a spare UK one already, or just pick up a new lead from an electronics store.

    Only thing I wouldnt order from hardwareversand is a keyboard/laptop as you'll get a german layout. Also be careful to order the english/international version of Windows. I'm sure the German version can be made work, and then pick a localisation when installed but why take on that hassle for the difference of 5 euro.
