I read a multitude of moans and complaints about eBuyer on
uk.comp.vendors for a good period of time and decided to stay away

I find that often a quantity of kit can usually be bought from
Komplett for pretty much the same price. They ship from Norway via DHL
so it's not overnight.

I *really* like the eBuyer web site and I really like the quotes
system they have.
I also like the Komplett web site a lot, although the order
tracking/accounts pages are a bit rubbish last time I used them.

If it wasn't for the volume of complaints I've seen I wouldn't have
any hesitation in using eBuyer, but there's just that bit of me
thinking that maybe they're like Scam - great to order from, but buyer
beware if something needs sorting post-sales...

Maybe they're a victim of their own success via their cheap prices.
