[LUG]Re: eBuyer

[Peter Walker via list <list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

When I was buying stuff for work we used BT Business Direct which used to be Dabs. They were very good to deal with. Out of interest I searched for the website and it is still live! So if you want to buy kit from 10 years ago, take a look :)

There don't seem to be many suppliers like that around anymore.

Cheers
Pete

So, with eBuyer popping its clogs and then getting bought out by a mickey mouse firm that has stripped their inventory back to a door knob and a tin of tartan paint, what's the recommendation for an replacement all-singing-all-dancing professional IT retailer?

I stopped box-building a long time back, now for personal and SOHO type stuff I've been using bargian hardware for some years now. It's refurbished kit, but I've never had an issue and their service has been good.

Obviously if you need new, you need new, but...
