Bargain 2
Ordered an extra 8GB of ram from the US for the above server for only $23 and that includes del. Another steal.
Bargain 3
A job lot of 20 2.5" 72GB SAS 15,000 RPM hard drives for only £114 and that also includes del. This works out at under £6 per hard drive. These drives will fit the server and other servers I have.
Saved a huge amount. It sure is surprising what you can find on Ebay. I'm delighted.
Only thing is now I will have 7 servers on my hands!
Who wants to buy one?
Let us hope customs service and tax does not add another £90 on the bill. I purchased a second hand plastic lap top back from the States and really got hit. Never did use it, stripped the reputed un-repairable laptop ,( according to the experts) , right down and repaired it fine. Not bad as I hate all things pc, don't know how to use them, and don't want to know. Taking it apart was a dustmans holiday, just bits.
Yes would like to buy a new Loomis Fly Rod from the States as half the price, the Orvis sunglasses were one fifth the price. Rip off Britain.
And my fuel sensor which fits in the car petrol tank was £125 cheaper from Fords on Ebay Italy, welcome to mug UK.
