Anybody ever used www.tekheads.co.uk for parts?

[Proudy]

I was just wondering because it's meant to be good, but it just doesn't seem that professional to me and I'm extremely cautious of such places. If anybody has any experience of buying there please let me know.

i used them once for some items i couldnt get from any of my usual sources, however that was a couple of years ago and i think everything went well but cant really remember

[Proudy]

ok thanks I guess if they've been around for years it can't be that bad, cheers.

[SirSnake]

Yeah they have been around for a bit; Ive heard of them but have never used them or know anyone directly that has.


Is what youre getting that much cheaper there or you just cant find it anywhere else?

If there was a major problem with it the chances are a quick search on google would reveal some stories!

Otherwise you'll probably be fine!

:DFound something there I might buy, a keyboard with backlit keys......

[SirSnake]

Ive got one of them; its actually pretty cool, very pointless but cool :D

Is what youre getting that much cheaper there or you just cant find it anywhere else?Well I normally use Ebuyer but I just had some problems with them and I would like to try a different place. I found a good price on Tekheads, also it has much more convenient delivery options for me whereas most other places I looked at offered the typical "3 working days" stuff. Dabs.com was the worst for delivery, they said "3 working days from dispatch, but we can't say when dispatch will be". I thought that was stupid.



Found something there I might buy, a keyboard with backlit keys......I've been using Saitek Eclipse backlit keyboards for years, I just got the 3rd version a couple of days ago and it's the best keyboard I have ever owned without a doubt and I have been through many! I mean I thought the 1st and 2nd Saitek Eclipse keyboards were epic but this one is so much better with a touch sensitive panel with media player functions, backlight colour/brightness changer and also shortcuts down the left and right sides for things like web browser, calculator, favourites, my computer etc etc..

I highly reccomend one of these 2 backlit keyboards...

They are also built like tanks, my friend got knocked out by one and it still worked afterwards, bit damaged like.

try aria.co.uk
do not under any circumstances use scan.co.uk

I always use Overclockers... Delivery is always first class. Usually around the same price of not cheaper than Ebuyer.

I forgot to order any thermal grease.. haha. Best go buy some tomorrow.

do not under any circumstances use scan.co.uk

Why not?

[The Enforcer]
