Only 9-5. I thought all accountants worked longer hours, my Accountant certainly does. :D

Only companies that are VAT registered (which can be companies in the UK only) as no other country pays UK VAT.
I need a VAT invoice with the company's name and address and registered VAT number, the date on the invoice, the amount paid, the total VAT listed, what the goods are, the name of the VAT registered business on the VAT invoice that it's being sold to (MY business' name). So these items are bought for my "business" or so the taxman is led to believe :p:
Also, because it is being bought for the use of the "business" I can minus the total paid from my profits and make it more beneficial to me by paying less tax.
I probably will end up buying from OcUK as they provide the best invoices with everything listed as it should be.
I bought a 7900GTX from Dabs once and there was practically nothing on the receipt so I'm not fond of buying from them again.

Bollocks to it. I'm willing to pay £260 for a chip that canes the "top of the range" FX62 worth £600+ :woot:

And tbh, all of us on here know what that E6600 is capabale of! - So it's well worth it in my eyes. I see that as a bargain.

Ja, I feel like I've been kicked in the nuts by next doors 3yr old when I see it for £220 on Komplett, but as I say. I see £252 as a bargain.... personally.

Now knowing that certain places are just plain charging what they want is irritating. Oh and of course Gordon f'kin Brown has to take his share (where's that gun?!?!) and to top it off.... £8 P&P is a bit "bastardy" too. :slapass:

Hey is that the Moonraker from my Seti Days ?

OCUK is down?

was earlier on. ok for a few hours tho

any updated rumours for any shops in regards to stock levels?

Ordered e6300 and gigabyte ds3 from scan.
gskill hz 2gb ddr2 800 from ocuk..

and waiting for my missus to bring the leadtek 7300gt extreme ddr3 from hongkong..

now my rig will be ready next monday :)

Dabs now got the E6300 OEM (Expected arrival Monday or Tuesday next week it seems) for £125. Think thats the lowest I have seen it and by about £10 compared to the £135 think everyone else is quoting, combine that with Dabs low postage costs then thats one cheap processor ... pity I want a E6600.

Yes Komplett is about the same price BUT they are not getting any stock for a month, Dabs are getting it after the weekend hence for people who want a E6300 now and can wait a couple of days they can save £10+ than going to scan or OCuk.

EDIT: Cancelled the order

Did the same mate :mad:

Right i no this is a wee bit of topic but does anyone know where to buy a CM stacker 810 cos im stumped.



*move this if you want*

http://www.xcase.co.uk/acatalog/Coolermaster_.html
they have the 810 in stock well they webiste says they do anyway.

I have spoke to an intel channle rep today and asked about core 2 duo E6600 stock and they said middle of next month for all of the big trade suppliers.
this is ingram micro , microtronica and computer 2000.
so unless ocuk/novatech are getting them direct from intel i would say this will be the same for everyone.

You didn't check much then :) They have them in Scan - check under Aluminium cases.

EDIT: As for the the UK etailers believe Dabs go direct (or they used to), assume a few of the other big ones do as well - probably a good guess at the people who got the E6300 OEM's got them direct - So Dabs, Scan and OCuk.

The silver is in stock - http://www.scan.co.uk/Products/Produ...oductID=381924

You never said that you were after the Black or Blue :)

Dont remeber seeing any black 810's around when I was looking for a case, did see a few blues though but cant remember where.

Ive bought an E6600 and the Corsair DDR2 Cas3 ram from the US..saved me 150 odd quid.(which i can buy the mobo with)
Even if i have to pay the duty on it, i still gain. :)

Remember you have to pay duty at various rates plus vat. Plus even the delivery is taxed unless you pay the previous upfront, plus theres a handling fee.

Ive paid 50 pounds tax on 60 pounds worth of goods before now

i bought a HD sony cam off ebay US and i got caught by customs. thankfully, the bayer marked the item down and only cost me £20 on a £1000 camera :)

Nope, none :( We are all still waiting for the hint of any stock available. Hoping this coming week will be good... :stick:

Just don't forget Dabs £219.99 delivered E6600 (free delivery this w/e).
