Some sites I have found useful.
Much of my computer equipment has been bought from RL Supplies a Watford firm that I have found to be most reliable with very reasonable prices.
A source of new and 'as new' equipment is Morgan Computers I have bought many things from them over the years. Now under new management, with no shops to visit so haven't used them for a long time now. Well, now I have been back to them and not very impressed, the 'next day' delivery stated in their order confirmation email should have said 'next week'.
