Be careful with Pricewatch-- there's a bunch of bait and switch business going on there. They try to fight it, but you'll see some piece of hardware going CRAZY cheap, but then they'll throw exorbitant shipping fees at you...

Ebuyer is a good one, tend to be half the price of the high street for most things, also budpak is pretty good. If you're buying in bulk - if you had a store for instance, Alibaba would be good as well.

Don't forget to check overstock.com - you might be surprised at what shows up there.
