Can someone give me a list of online electrical retailers that give competitive prices.

I'm about to move to NZ from the UK. I'm in the process of deciding what to ship over and what not to. In order to do this I am trying to compare prices of certain electrical items, if the price isn't too different I shall just sell my old stuff on ebay in the UK and buy brand new when I arrive. I have a feeling stuff is a bit more expensive in NZ due to lack of competition however I'd like to know exactly how much.

Cheers in advance for your help!

To give an example of one thing I had in mind:

My Samsung SyncMaster 223BW Monitor which is 6months old and I paid about £180 for.

It would basically cost me £30 to ship it over so I was thinking why not sell it on ebay before I leave and upgrade on getting to NZ.

Cheers

Adam

Just type in what you have / want to buy
