He lives in France so reckons the delivery cost would be horrendous...so he is proposing to get it shipped to me then i drive it over...and stay a few days sampling the vino etc....
Q for Vadim...Does the warranty work for France etc??
I told him that i believed it didnt...
What does he do? To be honest, I'm glad I'm out of the Sahara now
He is an onsite health and safety executive for an onshore drilling rig...
The lil b****** earns lots of £s tax free....
Suddenly i wish i had gone to skool afterall...
As mr wolf said i would definatley up the HD considering how cheap they are, also maybe, again because they are pretty cheap go for a audio card instead of onboard .
Looks good matey, but i would definetely change the hdd to Sammie spinpoints, 500/750gb as you will get better performance and much better storage for not much more cash!!
Thanks for helping daz out on this guys, all valid points
Well, don't know what to say really.....er....what they said!
Change the HDD's for 1 or two Spinpoints or WD Caviar GP's then that'll be one fine machine.
With regards to international orders and warrantys, i have copied the relevant section from our terms and conditions:
10. INTERNATIONAL ORDERS
Any order to be delivered outside mainland UK is considered International order.
We do accept international orders, however please note that for orders outside UK, the only payment method accepted will be bank transfer that will be confirmed after placing the order. Please select Cheque/Money Order and once the order approved, we will confirm the payment details.
Currently we use UPS and TNT as our international shipments.
Although we do ensure that our systems are very well packed and insured in transit, in the unfortunate event that damage will occur, all the shipping expenses for repair must be covered by the customer unless it has been signed as DAMAGED and we can claim against the insurance.
As an alternative to having the system back to us for repair it is recommended to find a local computer specialist that will identify the faulty part, which we will be able to send a replacement. Any shipping charges to and from us must be paid by the customer.
Currently the warranty on International orders is Premium 2 years RTB - Return To Base.
We can organise for the items to be collected and repaired/upgraded/serviced, however all the shipping expenses must be covered by the customer.
Prices will be provided upon application.
An engineer visit may be granted, where all the travel expenses must be covered by the customer.
