Anyone ever heard of this web site?

Sure - I've known them since 2004.

They're the scam artists forerly known as DexDigital.co.uk,
MobiTeh.co.uk, EastElectronics.co.uk, Gonex.co.uk, AnviDirect.co.uk,
cxMusic.co.uk, wMusic.co.uk, DJOnLineStore.co.uk, Aigars.co.uk,
OrvisInc.co.uk, StarkDigital.co.uk, DrumTeh.co.uk, Nexton.co.uk,
wxComputers.com, Xdigi.co.uk, DigitalSys.co.uk, Inteh.co.uk,
PactElect.co.uk, PCDale.co.uk, DigitalDale.co.uk, wLogic.co.uk,
CarsAudio.co.uk, WizMusic.co.uk, and Instrum.co.uk (puh!).

And they will be here tomorrow, under yet another name, because
the Rumenian police shows absolutely no interest in shutting
them down.

They are advertising Nikon and Canon cameras at what can only be (at
least to me) impossible prices.


Oh, they have no problem whatsoever making a huge profit at those
prices. It not very hard when you make a 100% profit on every deal.

Check them out he

No worries mate - the general rule seems to be - if it's too good to be true
it usually is...
