I made the plunge and ordered one.
Local supply or direct from China?
I've a couple listed as 'item location London' and even a 48 hour delivery would get it here for Thursday, but £150 for next day against £11.80 for a supposed 48 hour Royal Mail service with a delivery date of next week? Why can't these guys simply be honest and SAY that all the stock is in China and they drop ship to a country BEFORE putting on the quoted service? Even the ones with 'Guaranteed UK Stock' ... last batch of breakout boards took ten days to get the 20 miles from Birmingham, and the UK shipping label was stuck over the Chinese one!
We know they can ship things quickly, just can't rely on when things will arrive so it would be nice to know that the tracking number you were given WITH the order acknowledgement has nothing to do with getting the item TO the country :(
