I've bought a few things from them, simply because their prices are low. 
My new 1.7GB Hard drive works like a dream although the modem I bought 
from them required a few trips to get sorted. I still haven't managed to 
install the tape drive yet although this seems to be a faulty disk 
controller (not from SC may I add)

Morale of story: make sure you get all the cables, manuals, disks, 
instructions, equipment, etc. before you walk out the door, and don't 
assume that it'll be in the box!
Oh, and don't expect PnP to mean just that - although I'm sure you didn't 
in the first place :)

They're pretty good with returns as long as you've got the receipt 
(probably need to with the amount they get).
