    goodness me....just been on the website. it does look well designed.

    just did a fake order and it went through fine too.

    the payment stage looked very professional too.

    :(

    I got an error last night, thats why I halted in my order, then I googled the error code, and found that as the website has a twitter button for people to click on and follow him on there, it conflicts with the site security, and the web designer needs to alter some HTML to correct it - well thats what I thought it was.

    Anyway this simple 'error' in the code made me instantly think that NO self respecting web designer etc would make such a school boy error.

    Hi

    I'm the fella with an ekm shop (not this one, I hasten to add!). That'll be the twitter button issue already mentioned. He won't have card details. I've posted a thread on the ekm forums and will do my best to kick up a stink over there (not that it's their fault, but other shop owners may have ideas beyond those we've already come up with).

    I felt partly responsible for initially sticking up for him solely on the basis he was an ekm-er. And I didn't do anything, just posted a link to this thread on their forums. Nevertheless, I agree - hopefully I'll be able to get an address or some form of contact for him - after all, I've lost two quid too!

    [STRIKE]
    I can't even remember the URL to check online if the site has gone, can you?

    Found it through my confirmation email. The site has been taken down.
