Springhavens Toy shop

Has anybody used the Springhaven Toyshop online ordering? I have never heard of them before and they are currently cheapest on a game I am after.

    I'm not surprised you haven't heard of it before. The site was only registered a week ago.

    http://whois.domaintools.com/springhavens.co.uk

    I would advise you not to use this website for the following reasons:

    The address given is in fact a mailbox, in Portsmouth.

    The Seattle,USA address on the Domain Registration looks a bit more promising. Unfortunately that's a UPS Store which, according to Wikipedia also do mail boxes.

    Reputable websites will give a landline 'phone number. This one's got a mobile number so the owner could be anywhere.

    When I tested out the buying process with a fake name and address, not only did the price mysteriously increase but I got transferred to Amazon Uk. So it looks like yet another website which doesn't actually sell anything but the owner is making his money from referral/affiliation fees.

    Quite frankly you'd be better off going directly to Amazon to save all the faffing about.

    Thanks CoopDiv. I don't know how you get all this great info but I am glad you can. I will follow my first instinct, avoid this site and buy from Amazon.
