/touches wood/

So far I've had good service from ebuyer.

On the two occasions I'e had to send things back  (CF card failed after 2
weeks, and an IDE to USB that wouldn't)=20
They have responeded without quibble and replaced the items,  it can take a
while for questions to be answered and returns to be sorted.

However their packaging certainly isn't great,  with little or no padding
i=
n
the box, bag, or cardboard envelope :-S

You pay you money and take your chance,  and with ebuyer the savings can be
significant ;-)

after a bit more research I'm about to push the button on an order for
upgrades similar to that suggested by Ho Yin below ( I pushed the boat out

a
little bit and spent a bit more on the graphics card). Overall, price wise

I
couldn't beat ebuyer on this occasion.  I've never bought from ebuyer
befor=
e
and the level of comments on their site about DOA's and returns frighten me
a bit.  Should I be worried - I know there's a few regular users of ebuyer
on here?

TIA
