Trusted shops buyer protection?

Has anyone heard of or used this before, only reason I ask is because I've just made an online purchase and was offered this after checkout as it says the seller is responsible for the cost and covers none delivery of purchases etc.

I've had a quick look through the t&c and can't see anything about me been charged for anything unless i extend the cover, so hopefully all should be well as I didn't see anything asking if I would like to extend cover past the 30 days offered.

Also I paid with a credit card so come to think of it I will be covered anyways if anything was to go wrong.

    Do you feel able to tell us what you are talking about?

    What t&c have you looked at?

    Can you please provide a link to the suspect website.

    It's recommended by trading standards , standard free level or super duper level -small cost. Cc seems fine to me..
