If there's one thing I've learnt from buying a bunch of PC parts lately it's that DPD has really cornered the market on "delivering things Evri can't be trusted with" among UK retailers

PC component retailers packaging tier list so far
F-----: Currys. Thin plastic envelope around dented manufacturers box
D: Orbit. Box with no protection
C: Scan. Bubble envelope
B: VIP via Argos. Thin box with air cushions
A+: Overclockers. Decent box with bubble wrap and free haribo

@lion overclockers has been consistently great for me, prices are reasonable and they genuinely seem to be run by hobbyists themselves. ebuyer is alright but prices are a little high tbh

@Atatra Ebuyer went into administration in August & now it's just some crap site using the branding

@Atatra it suffered the worst of all fates, being bought by Mike Ashley
