Buying Stock pc's / Laptops in Europe

[maxowa]

After reading a now closed thread and others I decided to buy a laptop from Digital Storm - when I called them however I found out that as I live in Switzerland the price would be 80 - 100 % higher due to shipping and customs fees.

Therefore I would like to know if anyone has a decent alternative which will ship to Europe at favorable prices or even better will ship from Europe?

Thanks!

Maybe Dell or HP?

Thanks for the reply however both Dell and Hp are not really applicable

From Digital Storm I was looking at the x17 series. Dell has the Alienware equivalent, however from the posts I have read their service and value for money isn't up to standard so seems a shame to not be able to get a quality product, just because I live in Europe and not the US.

Any further suggestions anyone?

Sorry. Saw the word stock in the title. What you want is a custom gaming laptop. The only thing I can think of is Dell's Alienware line and it seems the UK is as close as you can get. http://www.alienware.co.uk/

Ah ok thanks, you or anyone else don't know of any alternatives - they just don't seem like much value for money - and apparently their service isn't fantastic either.
