I know... very difficult to find, but does anybody know of any US computer parts companies that ship to the UK :?:

I could save hundreds if this was possible, so have any of the british people on JW found a really good online store that ships to the UK.

This might be impossible but its worth a shot :D

When you've payed tax, duties and shipping its not really worth it....

The only that makes sense would buy them if you're on holiday in America.

hehe i haven't been court yet and i've done it about 10 times so far ;)

Either way it has to be a pre planned holiday anyway otherwise you'd just be wasting money on the flights

Thamar if he could find some one in the State or Canada to buy the stuff for him and ship them as a gift to the UK I dont think we would have to pay anything.

Okay... i get the idea :oops:

I figured that it may work out like this, so i guess i will end up paying full-whack. :(

Just to say./.. if i bought a £1000 system in the US it would cost around $1000 - so i would save around £350 :P .... the duty would only be 17.5% + 3% making a saving of only £170. I would happily pay £170 to get a better warranty service, so UK it is then :wink:

Also, companies such as Dell in the US make you declare that the system will remain in the US. (How they check I have no idea)
