Google comes up with the options of Merlin, Wiggle, Chain Reaction Cycles... All seem to be in the U.K. (I'm in the U.S.).

It seems that all are right around the same price point, so I guess it comes down to shipping (speed) and customer service.

Thanks in advance.
If you absolutely have to buy from the USA, then Planet Cyclery is pretty competitive with UK sites these days.

Ultegra - Shimano - Group Sets

That said, I ordered my 6800 groupset from Merlin, and have no complaints. It arrived faster than many things I've ordered from within the USA.
