Computing Inexcess located in western australia ships aussie wide.

site is easy to follow and prices are very good

here's the link

http://www.cominexcess.com.au/

Phil Dx · 11-07-2003

Two online stores. Only accept US orders unfortunately. Often have low prices for CD/DVD RW drives, and sometimes free shipping.

Livewarehouse: http://store.yahoo.com/livewarehouse/index.html

Cheap but have dubious returns policy and can't find any info about OEM warranty support on the site.

NewEgg: http://www.newegg.com/

Warrant OEM products for 1 year. Seem to have a good reputation.

squeg · 13-11-2003

I'm going to cast a Second vote for http://Newegg.com in the USA. I'm not sure of their international shipping policy, but I and my friends have placed many many orders with them for various bits of techy goodness. Their prices are always among the lowest and the selection on hardware is quite good. I wouldn't bother looking for software there unless you are already buying some hardware as their software selection is decidedly less impressive.

They ship quickly and package things well. What more could you ask for

Sherman1,

Um, okay? are you on drugs?
Those prices are HUGE!

I can jump onto most sites in sydney and get prices that match/beat those prices. Do you own the business perhaps?

try here. http://www.cworld.com.au/ They deliver everywhere in OZ and NZ. Based in melbourne but have stores in sydney and brisbane. And these guys have higher prices than I'd usually pay anyway.

*$CyBeRwIz$* · 18-12-2003

www.gamedude.com.au is definitely the best in Australia. Everything's cheap there!

Metal Martian · 28-12-2003

I have discovered another one in Canada:

www.bytewizecomputers.com

Lower prices than Canada Computers on most items and accepts a wide variety of payment options and shipping.

MM

*Ssseth* · 30-12-2003

Again from Canada

Specializes in Media.
Absolute great prices, plus offers buying samples so you can be sure it's going to work.
Lists the full media code by clicking on the media name! Great to have in conjunction with the
Media Forum > DVD Media Tests boards to make sure you get just want you want.

blankmedia.ca

--------------------------------
My local retailer, by far the cheapest / best customer service I've ever seen from a hardware supplier (local- mail order).
memoryexpress.com

Buskerdoo · 17-02-2004

For great prices on quality CD, CD-R, and DVD supplies try out cd sleeves. Quality it great and so are the prices.

solentsurfer · 15-04-2004

http://www.blankmediauk.com

Good prices
Excellent Service
Quick response to emails
Flash cards, flash drives as well as CD-R and DVD media

jclloydy · 11-05-2004

www.ebuyer.co.uk in the UK are very good and cheap

Did you join CDfreaks solely to advertise your business?

Phil K1 · 12-05-2004

I'll tell you one to avoid like the plague in the UK - www.7dayshop.co.uk
I ordered some Epson original cartridges the total bill was £40 - that was 3 weeks ago. Nothing has arrived, they have stopped answering my emails, disconnect me when I try to get on the phone to them, and yet were quick to take the money. They are supposed to be the ones chasing up with Royal Mail, but they havent. Avoid these cheating b******s.

Got them. Finally after 3 weeks. The cause was 2 things - 1/ 7day shop addressed the package slightly wrong, 29 being used instead of 28, and 2/ Royal Mail for being the incompetent bumblers they are.

Royal mail couldn't be too bad if they managed to still get the package to you despite incorrect addressing

In Oz, my parents sent a package from a small city in queensland (top of Oz) to NSW main city (largest city in Oz) and it took just under 11weeks to arrive.
And it was correctly labelled. Apparently the letter had fallen behind a desk

and hadn't been forwarded on

-Cheers

jls1700 · 21-05-2004

If you are in the UK I've always found www.azzta.com to be good.

I like using the Mirror Platinum Pro G04, as they have been the best for me, and this company only really deal with them, for a cheap price too, about £12.90 or something + Delivery

They also do double DVD cases for 12p each or can do them even cheaper if you buy 100x or 200x, which is 8p each!!

They aren't a media specialist but I haven't had any problem with them in the past, I normally get my system bits from there

The_Dude · 15-07-2004

A third vote for www.newegg.com in the USA !

Many of my PC's components came from there:

- Prices are the lowest ~80% of the time.
- Free or low cost Fedex Shipping
- Items shipped out quickly (in fact, unless you have a critical need, don't do the "rush shipping fee" because they usually get orders out the same day IF they are single in-stock items (like a spindle of media).
- One-Day-Sale items can be especially good deals.

It is a particularly good place to buy CD/DVD media because they have customer reviews, and their customers are geeks like us

who post the internal factory code for the media in their reviews when they receive the product .

While we know that the particular spindle you receive may not be the RICOHJPNR01 that was described by an earlier purchaser (for example), nevertheless I find that for USA residents, NewEgg is the best shot for getting a particular factory's media, and at a very good price, too.

cdripper86 · 15-07-2004

Check out Tigerdirect.com INTERNATIONAL
They usually have some good deals, many rebates, low prices, customer reviews, detailed specs, and i haven't ever had any problems with them. Only thing bad is they ship with UPS(cost isn't bad unless you want quick ship).
It's the only place i've seen this sweet "case"....

I'd say the www.blankdiscshop.co.uk takes some beating. Best of all. AND they ship to Denmark, mate ! Oh - and as one of our American cousins noted - this company also has the lead code noted to tell you what you're buying !

*bigmike7* · 16-09-2004

Yo-

Really impressed with the following:

For media=
www.rima.com and www.supermediastore.com

For hardware=
www.newegg.com and
www.zipzoomfly.com

All have good to great prices and customer service-

Happy Burnin'
