IBM spare parts in the UK - other than from IBM itself

[glass-half-full]

Hi. I am trying to source some Thinkpad spares (46P3125 and 46P3117) in the UK. I know I could probably go straight to IBM but they seem very expensive for that sort of thing. I've checked out some US-based websites and the prices for the parts themselves seem ok - but shipping is very expensive (as expected).

Does anyone know of any UK or European suppliers who can supply those kind of things please ?

thanks - glass

Excuse me for thread-jacking, especially on my first post, but I'm also looking for somewhere that sells new IBM replacement parts, in my case, for an R31. I don't particularly care what country they're in as long as they're reliable and ship overseas
