# Check out
any local independent computer shops that might be around. I've got a very useful one just down the road, and they have a load of 2nd hand stuff at ok prices, and they will negotiate on price.

(edit) I reckon cex are often a rip off, esp. for hradware

a webpage that searches the largest (and usually cheapest) online PC retailers. Very useful for that important bit of Kit
PC Index

# there's also
Pricewatch UK for prices (duh!) and Romulus 2 keeps a useful user feedback section on the quality of the retailers' service.

# what do you mean, apart from cex?
cex are almost as bad as cash converters for selling you overpriced half-broken stuff! (anyone spot the personal grudge? nooooooo... =P) i reckon free ads and online auctions are better. especially if you live near enough to view the goods
