    Des, this is a non-story. A quick google is an immediate red flag, it's been covered widely

    why not do a 'Ten ways to avoid being e-ripped' and use this as your prime example

        How about Googling QSSupplies.

        Or how about a piece on Ryanair's online booking software that books you the whatever was last captured by their cookies, regardless of whether or not its actually what you want to book. And then they deny it, until you tell them you know what the problem is....

              Not this lot but ordered another cheap car safety camera recently. It took 8 weeks to get here from Hong Kong and I opened up the box to find an alarm clock. Not a big deal as it was 12 quid but probably pays to Google before buying things online.

                Lol, just set the alarm for 2 minutes before you crash, then whip out your phone and record the incident. I bet the guy you ordered it from knew the mandarin for 'he who dares wins, Rodney'

                  Total non story. Company offering stuff cheaper on Internet has crap customer service and in most cases cannot fulfil orders or order process.

                  Basically it's a classic buyer beware of Romans bearing gifts and looking a gift horse in the wallet.
