I suggest you stick to well known vendors, if it sounds too good to be true, it usually is.
Perhaps start with Newegg: Newegg.com - Desktop PCs, Desktop PC Computers, Cheap Desktop PCs, HP Desktop PC, Cheap Desktop Computer
Most reputable shop prices will not vary greatly.
There is more than price to consider ie; will you get after sales support, will you actually get the goods you paid for.
Wait for responses from others that have had a good experiance with online purchases, but in the end the choice is yours.
If building your own to save money, you may be supprised to find that often it can be as cheap to buy a ready made unit. They often throw in extras for no extra cost. Some have cash back offers.

Maybe go out and buy PC Plus magazine to get an idea of local vendors.
