    Declare inflated prices to customs, zero customer service

    Overall Experience:

    Unlike many others I KNOW, this company is based in the USA and as I am in the UK will be liable to customs charges, therefore, it is simple enough for the products I want to buy to keep the bill cost under £15 and pay a little more for postage by splitting orders, as after all some of their prices are low, or I buy them elsewhere.

    Unfortunately, as other reviewers confirm, the company does not complete the Customs Declaration form honestly and generally put heavily inflated prices on it, so even when actually spending below £15, a customs bill for VAT and an added administration and collection fee of £8 lands on your doormat via Royal Mail, in one case for more than the cost of the purchase when the actual purchase was only just over £11!

    It is pointless trying to reason with them as worst of all, the company will do no more than send "stock" automatic email replies and will enter into no discussion of their failure in this respect which is simply adding insult to their failure.

    My tip is to avoid them; this doesn't happen with other US companies I have used.

    Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend
