eBuyer: (UK (http://www.ebuyer.co.uk)) and (US (http://ebuyer.com)) are good too
Posted by: Schmiggy_JK23
price watch! (http://www.pricewatch.com) great all around price comparison place
Froogle, googles price comparer (http://www.froogle.com) this is a bit new, but already getting rave reviews...
Google Gear (http://www.googlegear.com) I buy alot of my hardware for pcs i build there...
Newegg (http://www.newegg.com/) Another great retailer, Newegg, where i buy hardware from also..
and of course, never forget Ebay (http://www.ebay.com) If your around at the right time of day, you can get some steals on ebay!

Posted by: Livy
if you live near edinburgh or alloa
http://www.silicon-group.co.uk are quite good.
also http://www.dabs.com
Posted by: bigfoot1942
adata.nl (http://adata.nl) is one of the cheapest in Holland
Posted by: bennyboy
www1.oemexpress.com and pccyber.ca in ottawa, canada are the cheapest I've found
Posted by: smellmycomputer
www.microdirect.co.uk is cheap
Posted by: ilw
http://www.dabs.com
Cheap and reliable
http://www.overclockers.co.uk
Good quality stuff
Both UK only
Posted by: Gandalf on Crack
PriceGrabber (http://www.pricegrabber.com)
This place takes alot of the cheapest online stores and puts them all down for you, tells you the cheapest w/ S and H included.
Works very nicely...
Posted by: chalkmongoose
TigerDirect.com, Nationwide-Computer.com
NC's been in bankruptcy for about 6 years, and they still work wonders. Also, for 35 bucks, they'll also build your machine for you (and yes, I am that lazy)
Posted by: ilw
Overclockers.co.uk actually deliver all over Europe i've just found out. Any chance of updating that first post?
Posted by: boyzeee
www.novatech.co.uk tippy top place to buy innit! :D
Posted by: Arcadia
EuroPC (http://www.europc.co.uk/cgi-bin/web.storefront) (UK)
are very very cheap. They mainly sell refurbished gear.
Posted by: Soul814
umm www.officemax.com has nice rebate cds and www.pricegrabber.com is often cheaper then pricewatch...
now what do you think is the number one cheapest place?
Posted by: SciManAl
i'd like to put Compgeeks.com on the table, they have desent prices, and sales that are extreme... don't have much on the high end of the spectrum... but plenty for the average comp user...
Posted by: h121589
Best Buy is the a good place & its kinna cheap
www.bestbuy.com
Posted by: Smurfette
Aria Technologies (http://www.aria.co.uk)
CCL (http://www.cclcomputers.biz)
Eclipse (http://www.eclipse-computers.com)
Javelin (http://www.javelincomputers.com)
Komplett (http://www.komplett.co.uk)
Scan (http://www.scan.co.uk)
Stak Trading (http://online.staktrading.com)
Watford Electronics (http://www.watford.co.uk)
Being in London, Komplett are my favourite source because it's a right PITA to return faulty stuff to Yorks/Lancs/Staffs.

I dont think so .... might be but ... pricewatch has much more variety (or at least for the stuff i have been looking for) so I would say:
No1 : PRICEWATCH without copmetition

Overclockers, CCLcomputers and EuroPC are my favourites
Overclockers are pricey but good quality.
CCL Computers have trade prices but have limited brands.
EuroPC for refurbished
:)
