Personally I'd trust it ... They give you far too much information for them to rip you off and get away for it ... They have such a wide range of products it would be wrong to disbelieve .... and they have a prettier site than DX and theyre legit =P

damn my hungover judgment  :x:

edit: ok I was lucky turns out i just looked at their website, bought most of my stuff from ebay instead :3

i did a bit of research and it turns out they're legitimacy is questionable

you won get your parcel within the correct delivery time. They are a German site but their products come from Italy, Monaco in particular so they dont actual have the products in stock. Furthermore if you send threatening letters it comes next day apparently :3

They just have defective sale methods =P

In all honesty they have minimal selection, well for what i was looking for. Dont think i found anythign i needed other than maybe the console tooling kits. Although eBay is jsut better :3

Ebay can be bad too though, I'd find some good stores that you know you can trust

Yeah but I'm kind of attached to DX because I live in Australia and postage from other shops is like $50. I guess you can't beat quality though
