Yes but only if you have a debit/credt card

Why reserve? Just turn up at the shop and buy what you want.

Wouldnt be best pleased if you drove 30 minutes to find out there was no stock left during your travel time.

You can buy stuff online and then pick it up from the store, it's an option in the Delivery Options if you go through the checkout process.

any pics of the shop?

Its a unit on a small industrial park, big orange sliding door, and an orange regular door. Normally with a stand up sign outside saying Overclockers. Once inside there's normally a selection of systems on display, but they generally have plenty of stock, so if you check online, unless they are down to the last one, you can normally get what you want.

I generally drive up from herefordshire, and thats a 2 hour trip, and I've yet to go away empty handed.

Contradiction is contradictorary.

I don't have any pictures of the shop but it's in an old battered 70's industrial unit, far from what I expected.

There is tunnel up the middle and it's about 3/4 of the way up that on the right.

The board outside was a small sandwich board.

You'll think your in the wrong place !

If you travel and there are only 1 or 2 items in stock then you might be unlucky. Best to always have a reserve item in mind to avoid disappointment.
