Anyone bought used items from circuitbreakersonline.co.uk

Options
The MCBs that I need are no longer available, circuitbreakersonline.co.uk stock used ones, and I wondered if anyone has bought stuff from them?

    I note that there is no trustpilot rating for them.

    Nothing strange about managing a cricket team as well. A colleague of mine manages an under 12 rugby team and is a scoutmaster as well as doing his job.

    I meant as he manages a cricket team, then he’s probably not a fly by night, but although his website appears to have a large inventory, circuitbreakersonline is not a registered company, however the domain name is registered!  Perhaps he’s just a middle man or his company name is something different!

    I just had a quick look and most of the stuff is used, or maybe old stock.  In the “About us” page it says “The majority of the mcb’s and rcbo’s we supply are used” so maybe he buys stuff removed/replaced by electricians.
