Scan computers Questions & Answers

I'd agree with most of the above except Amazon and Ebuyer - in terms of postage and the ordering process in terms or order to receipt. I find Amazon in particular a bit of a crapshoot - it can very good but as there are so many sellers I feel putting Amazon in is a bit like comparing apples to oranges. Mind you, Andy was responding by talking about 'return processes and support' so I guess that does also go in the heading of 'better' and "in some way". In terms of cost, Scan is the generally the same or cheaper. As to better, if you are a custom PC builder then https://www.overclockers.co.uk/ is nerd's paradise - but only better in the sense that it is orientated to the self build PC nerd. It's a consumer site - not orientated to the business user - but definitely worth a mention. Scan can however, build a system for the home as well as the business sector. Their custom built rigs are almost absurd but I guess while they can build for gaming nuts, really they are for people (IMO) like the Soho people (3D and Film work people)

I like Scan because the Sales staff are extremely knowledgable and the procurement process is stress free and smooth. Prices are as low or lower than competition and postage as cheap as the cheapest but more importantly Scan has obviously invested in staff and processes so I really enjoy ordering from them because as a home user I can move from desire to anticipation to easily and as a business user I need to have absolute clarity about the procurement process.
