I didnt check YELP as I normally would because this seller showed a google approved seller. However the advice would be STAY AWAY.

They add extortionate postage costs, AFTER you have confirmed your payment, as it would seem on the initial order screen there is none. This is called a BAIT n SWITCH scam. In my case this was 30% of my order that was nothing more than several cables.
Then when I called to cancel my order, they explained that my card had already been charged prior to dispatch! Although I insisted, they said I would still have to be charged and await a full refund that could take up to three days. What Lies. After you have paid, you effectively have agreed to their policies, which I have copied below.
Take note of their RESTOCKING fee that you will pay, if you return any non defective goods. So in effect you pay them for supplying nothing to you.
I have filed a complaint with Google, requesting a full refund of my shipping costs, and the BBB.
