Looking to buy a Sony Viao VGN-SZ2XP or similar, RRP 1599 UKP.
Dixons tax-free at the airport is 1361 UKP.
Any better places for these things?
Cheers

I've always wondered. Is it really a Vaio or is it a Va10? :confused:

:hmm:
My younger son, who knows about these things, ordered mine for me from:
Sony e-Solutions Europe B.V.
The Corporate Village
Da Vincilaan 7-D1
B1935 Zaventem
Belgium.
The machine is a VGNT2XP/L.CEK. The price was £1.445.96 and that was almost exactly a year ago. It's probably dinosauric by now. It's very small and light and with an extra battery I can go on for ever on the long haul nights flights. I think that Sony have now produced some carbon fibre models which are even lighter?:)

Yes, thank you people for the mixed replies.
I know where I can get them, my question was intended more as "where are the cheapest places to buy them?"
ie. has anyone any experiences of buying a Sony Vaio at anything other than RRP in the UK? If so, I'd appreciate your input.

Let me try to rephrase my previous post.
My younger son seemed to think that he got me a better deal than was available in the UK by ordering a Sony from the Belgian address I published in a previous post.
Of course, I do not really know if such might still be the case today.:)

Bought mine at Dabs.com, who seem to be pretty competitive. However, discussion on the flightdeck suggests that the duty-free shops at LHR and LGW may indeed be among the cheapest places worldwide to buy new Vaios, especially if they're run-out stock.
