has anyone used this site?
its a very new UK site with a server in Canada and no reports of any dodgy activity at all, its only crime is selling items at huge reductions that make you suspect its too good to be true. I was drawn there for a camera where a £3k+ Canon Eos R5 is selling at £1700 with a stack of accessories and two lenses!.
i have no idea how much shops mark up prices for these items and maybe they are happy making a bit less profit and selling more items and maybe Canada has different VAT or tax
they also accept paypal so I assume your covered for any issues with non delivery unless theres a clause with paypal about buying from certain sites but I think such a purchase would have to pass some paypal checks and it wouldnt be an option if it failed their test such as through too many previous failed sales or something.
a Fujifilm XT-4 is priced at £807 with fuji lens, 64Gb memory card and bag etc, Wex Photo asking £1500 for the body alone...
somebody must have noticed the place.

The website only has a 3 month SSL certificate, it was issued on Xmas day 2022 & runs out in March this year.
The address & phone number don't match location.
Their 'shop' is a house.
They only accept payment via PayPal.
By now, your spidey senses should be tingling....
The Edinburgh number is a landline at least.
I found a site called shopappliances.com and appliances4all which has thousands of reviews. using identical images which produced a 100% trust rating on a site checker.
I'm obviously steering clear of the applianceshub site but its only crime seems to be it being new.
You would think there would be a negative comment or warning somewhere from anyone ripped off.
They havent replied to an email query which might suggest its not even in use yet or it could be a fallback to continue a scheme when another site is taken down...
