    It's not a UK company that's for certain. The website says it is a German company but who knows.

    I certainly wouldn't order from them.

    What makes you uneasy about them?

    All the best,

    - Poor use of English language
    - Incorrect telephone number (missing the zero at the start)
    - No UK address and German listed address appears to be a run down area of Berlin (part residential, part industrial)
    - Crap logo (uses stock clip art)


    To me it feels like it could be a scam site and I guess the OP had a similar feeling. I would suspect you'd be sent fake parts if you place an order.
