newegg.com is generally the best place to buy. Might not be the cheapest, but will be very close.

I don't know what 'Yanks' implys.
Newegg is generally not the/near cheapest (though it's only ~$10 more there). A quick search pulled this place as the cheapest

http://www.royaldiscount.com/miwivihoprfu1.html

never heard of them, but they have good ratings.

You're American aren't you? Therefore you're a Yank.

I think Yanks are only from the north or something.

Yank is just British slang for American.

Yes, I am aware, however to them a Yank(ee) is someone from the North (pretty sure north...) so they see it as offencive if they are a southerner. It would be like calling everyone from the UK a Brit. I'm sure the people in Scotland would be pissed!

Some Scots may object to being called Brits but that's what they are.

Yanks are what the brits call you americans. Internally yes you may call the north yanks, but we brits call you all yanks, as does a lot of europe. brits include everyone from Great Britain, which does include scotland.

cheers for the linkehs - doesn't actually look any cheaper than UK prices - that's a first!

Yes, I guess it doesn't really matter does it! All rather pointless in the end

And I hope you weren't implying I was American [cursing]
