Re: Gigabit LANs - Overkill for home?

Shame indeed... sorry, it was an impulse purchase....

having said that, ebuyer are out of stock for a week, so there is plenty of
time for this to happen...

So, is anybody actually interested in a bulk buy of gigabit ethernet stuff?

The price breaks for the switch are:
Qty »      1-4           5-9          10-19      20-49        50-99
100+
ex VAT    £119.07    £118.51  £117.94   £117.38    £116.81     £116.25
inc VAT   £139.91    £139.25  £138.58   £137.93    £137.26     £136.60

and for the NIC's
Qty »       1-4           5-9         10-19     20-49       50-99
100+
ex VAT    £33.40      £33.21    £33.03   £32.84     £32.65       £32.47
inc VAT   £39.25      £39.03    £38.82   £38.59     £38.37       £38.16

Which as you can see, is not exactly generous, - but then ebuyer are
usually
the cheapest around anyway. (and I know some people don't like using
them...). In fact the biggest saving would probably be in delivery charges,
but if there were any onward postage costs, that would be wiped out as
well...

So my feeling is, for the sake of no more than about 50p per item, its
probably not worth the grief...
