New Amiga dealer - handle with care
An amigaworld.net member pointed out that there's a new presumably British Amiga dealer called amigashop.co.uk. But just a few hours later, there are lots of indications suggesting that one should be very cautious when dealing with this entity:
The only means of contacting the dealer (apart from a HTML form) listed on the website is a mobile phone number, there's no postal address or proper imprint available.
There are AmigaOne motherboards available from the webshop, yet the manufacturer Eyetech states that they never heard about that particular vendor. The domain amigashop.co.uk is owned by pc-x-treme.net, a company that has allegedly cheated PC customers in the past and falsely claimed to be a subsidiary of a reputable hardware manufacturer.
More information and links to further evidence can be found at amigaworld.net.
