eSpares is a marketplace for spares, parts, accessories and consumables for a huge variety of electrical appliances. They hook you up directly with the manufacturer in order to pass-the-savings-on-to-you - they say 30% off the typical High Street price. They deliver everywhere in the UK and their goal (aside from the usual corporate stuff) is to let you keep using your gadgets until they fall apart so badly that you can't even hope to use them anymore - instead of just binning them because you lost that one little rubbery bit that makes everything else able to interface nicely.
They say 3-4 days for most orders; 10-14 working days for obscura. Delivery starts at £1.99. They carry 500 brands now, and if they haven't got what you want, cast your plea into the part not listed form and they'll do their best for you, because, you know, they love you. [GT]
