SVP expand their PC componant lines

and it appears they have forsaken us who used to buy their blank media from there. DVD prices have risen and lines are just vanishing. Looks like its bigpockets or ukdvdr from now on

Re: SVP expand their PC componant lines

Didnt SVP used to do more components. I'm sure I got my motherboard from there years ago and then they became only a blank media store.

Gone are the days when CDR's and DVDR's were incredibly cheap. Everything seems to be going up these days.

Re: SVP expand their PC componant lines

They did some but they concentrated on media seeing as they were theblankdiscshop before they were svp

They are still cheap I have been buying the Maxell F1 Ritek dye discs for around 13/15 quid for 100. Some of the unbranded TYG02 (beware of the TYGO3 unbranded as these are not as good) for the same kinda price. I used to buy dvds from the puter fair years ago and they cost £25 for 25 so they are still cheap now lol

Re: SVP expand their PC componant lines

svp was sold to a scottish firm last year, since then they seemed to have changed their focus. It was annoying for me as the svp dispatch warehouse was a 5 minute drive from my house so I never paid for postage I now use these guys www.ketta.com but their prices are not as keen as svp's are/were.

I take it the move in the pc component direction is a permanent one? I am a system builder and already have a wide choice of places where I can buy my components I see no reason to take on another supplier. Also your stock levels of the blank media has increased on price and your range has depleted quite dramatically. Unfortunately if this is how it is now and I see no reason to assume it will change I am afraid you will lose me as a customer as as I said I have plenty of choice for parts and now have to look elsewhere for my media . A sad day
I know they will not care but I think this new direction is a mistake
