Default Anyone bought an item from www.mx2.co.uk?

You know when it looks a little too good to be true?
Well been shopping around for the best price on an iRiver IFP-999 1GB player this site http://www.mx2.co.uk/acatalog/MX2_co_uk_iRiver_9.html has them at £175 inc vat and delivery which is way cheaper than anyone else. It's either a mistake, a hellofagood price or...something else.
Anyone bought from them ?

Thanks,

Andy

Can I ask why you would want a 1GB i-river when you can get an IPOD 4gb for
£164 inc vat ?

Portability. The iriver is tiny and just what I need for the gym.

They seem to work out of guernsey - same as 7dayshop.com



MX2
MX2 Computers Limited, Unit 6, Bouillon Lane, St Peter Port

Not that cheap for camera stuff as 7dayshop though, seem to have a big stock of equipment.

i've bought i few things and they seem to bill your card the minute you order whether they have it in stock or not,which i'm not keen on sites like that.

i brought a ps2 controller and memory card with no probs. They were really helpful as i has orginally ordered silver but at the last min ps2 said their'd send me a slim blk one so i called them up and they changed the order no prob.

If your worried pay on credit card- that way if anything happens your covered by them

Which did just happen via a very well known UK based mp3 player website. Had to go through visa to get a refund.
