    No, it's not local, some seller in London. I could be getting royally stitched up. It really is a gamble, but I want to support fair competition where I can. I feel bad for even talking about competitors, but I really want to believe there are good people still out there, otherwise other sellers could create a monopoly and drive prices up through proper gander.

    I've ordered a box from here for another family member, piece of mind where he's concerned The service they offer here really is great, free image install, warranty, paid for HDD install too. Can really recommend a newbie buying here. I'm just trying to cut corners where I can and I can afford be a little more frugal / risky / foolish with my own money. Yes, there's bound to be dodgy sellers out there, but an honest retailer selling at a price below their competitors shouldn't be tarnished with the same brush.

    The supplier will send me a photograph of the unit before he dispatches so I can verify its authenticity.

    I could of course be proved massively wrong, made to be a fool, go through stress getting my money back, eat a huge portion of humble pie then buy another one here after all!

    Only time will tell.... Wish me luck.

    Dont be fooled into thinking retailers such as the sponsor are coining it in selling units as they are not, their profit margin is extremely small and you get the peace of mind of a real warranty and full after sales support, but the end decision is yours to make, I sincerely hope you dont come to regret your strive to save a few quid.
