First time I've seen that website....

Oh the horror of it all!

Little Johnny and Suzy please don't look! I don't want you to grow up like that!

Luckily my wife doesn't follow the forum. Maybe I have a chance to persuade her we need yet another "device" to make OUR life easier :wink:

I have bought from them several times.
Very slow in postage , over 5 weeks is not uncommon.
Drawn out warranty process if you make a claim.
I usually can find the same item they have on ebay for cheaper.
However they do carry many items you can't get anywhere else and the customer reviews are handy

Lol, I was implying that if I took up another hobby (actually just re-adopt an old one, I already have arduino etc.), my child would finish up with his daddy being kicked out of the house.

I've purchased heaps of stuff from DX.

it is what it is. cheap knock off parts. I don't ever buy anything that i'd get upset over if it arrived broken or poor quality.

I haven't been disappointed with anything from them so far, the arduino gear seems to be very good.

Exactly timmy.
I have also bought heaps of stuff from them.
I found warranty quite good, they replaced a li-on battery charger for me, didn't have to send the old one back either.

Yep the wait is what it is too. BUT they have an Australian warehouse now and the website tells you if the part is stocked locally.

If you have a nintendo wii or ds or whatever they have tons of replacement parts and controllers etc.
They also have a huge range of 12v LED stuff.

A tip for new DX customers, read the reviews, sure there are often silly comments, but it is a good way to get the gist of the quality/performance of products..

Li-ion batteries are cool..
