VAT Reduced - 30 Nov 2008

Today (30 November), we've reduced the VAT rate applied to our products to 15%. You will see that not all gross prices have gone down. This is because we have been holding back a price increase for many months now - component prices have been rising steadily, due to currency fluctuations, and now we have no choice but to increase our net prices a little.

However, we pride ourselves in being extremely competitive and we always strive to give our customers the best value possible. Check out like-for-like systems and you will find that we offer superb value, backed by our FREE delivery and 2 year warranty on all our PCs.
