Never dealt with any of them : having dealt with Scan, Dabs, Simply,
and a couple of others in the UK, however, I can unreservedly
recommend Scan as being the best, both in price and reliability.

I've probably ordered more than 10k of hardware from them at this
stage (not all for me, sadly :-), and they haven't screwed up once.
Delivery is usually 2/3 days, via Interlink courier, and they're pretty
reliable also.
