online buying!!!

Hello.
Am in need of some advice. I am wanting to buy a conservatory from a web based company. I am slightly concerned as they have no showroom as such for me to go to. They want 50% of the money up front and the rest before they deliver. Now if I pay and receive no goods, where do I stand?
Please help :confused:

    assuming you are not a troll

    just don't do it

    get a proper estimates from 2/3 companies after having visited their premises

    check their payment terms and only pay 10% deposit and the rest on completion
