Good price on Procurves?

[meastaugh1]

Hi,

Can anyone suggest a good (read cheap) supplier of Procurves? Misco don't seem too bad, but I'd very much welcome suggestions. cheers.

Or European Electronique, they do good prices on Procurve kit too.

meastaugh1: What particular procurve kit are you after?

Ben

Thanks for your replies. I'd be after at least a 2600-50, although I'd prefer to get a 4108gl if I could get away with it.

Misco seem to be the one to beat @ £388.85 so far.

Just watch who you get HP stuff of with regards to the warranty. Some of the cheaper ones will have a warranty outside the UK and you will have to send them a bit further than usual .

This quote is old but European Electronic quoted me £363.55 for a 2650 and £198.91 for a 2626 back in April. My contact is Dave Castle, telephone 01865 734437

Fantastic pricing on Procurves, mediocre on everything else

Last one I had a problem with that I dealt with HP on the replacement was delivered to school before I got in the next morning and the faulty one was picked up after I swapped it out.

No problems on them.

Norphy: Thanks for those details seems a very good price

European Electronique quoted me £351.05 for a 2650. I called them to check that it had gone through the usual UK reseller channels, and they confirmed it does. I also called HP to check, and they said it should be legit (not grey).

One more question...
The 24 port 10/100mb expansion module (J4862B), what's so special about it? Why is it >£400? Is it just because it's modular and therefore expensive?
