    What ever money you save in buying a product will be swallowed up in shipping costs and then if anything were to go wrong with your order/products during the first 12 months you'd have a very expensive return postage cost as the first 12 months warranty are usually covered by the retailer here.

    I don't know how easy it would be for you to order from more locally available sources but would consider looking at Malaysia, Singapore and maybe even Hong Kong as alternatives. Otherwise look at some of our UK retailers websites and maybe contact them in order to find out if they offer international delivery and to find out about their terms.

    Sorry I can't offer much more in the way of advice than that.

    What will it be used for? I'm assuming that it's for gaming, personally, if it were me I might even consider saving money on the i7 and getting an i5 instead so that I can spend more on the GPU and get a GTX 980 Ti instead of a GTX 980.

    If it's just for gaming I really can't justify going with an Intel chip set even though they have a lot of advantages I'd sooner spend the money a a GPU and go with a 6 or 8 core and processor from amd.
