I haven't bought one either, but I was looking around before Christmas. There are dedicated sites based in the UK like Modmypi and Pimoroni, where you can get the boards with a wide selection of accessories, or a bundle like this one: https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/raspberry-pi-3-essentials-kit They probably pay more taxes (proportionally) than Amazon. I think one of these would be my first choice if I do buy one. You can get them in Maplin, but I think the one I visited had large & pricey kits. On the website, they have the boards by themselves at ~10-20% over what you'd pay elsewhere. > I'm looking for a Pi with wifi (Pi 3 model B?) The Pi 3 is the only one (so far) with built in wifi, but if you can get an older board significantly cheaper, there are little USB wifi dongles which work with them.
