I've just had a look in their search catagories. Seems they sell everything that's made.

Maybe they are a division of 'Red Herrings'.

1) Banner ads
2) Graphic design a two year old would blush at
3) No proper address
4) Open source "ecommerce" site
5) is it red-onions.com or red-onions2.co.uk
6) PayPal payment
7) No stock indicators.



look elsewhere...

Take a look at their T's and C's, you'll find their suppliers listed there, and the fact they hold no stock.

Always suspicious of companies that only have mobile phone numbers as contact points.

Interestingly one of their suppliers, Pixmania.com, is showing the D80, body only, at £664!!! Still cheaper than most others.

Pixmania.com usually supply non UK stock though and in recent times have taken a bit of bashing with regard to their customer service. If thats how good their supplier is then adding in another link to the supply chain would steer me well away even if they seemed to excel at everything else.

I think Orangepeel has given you enough good reasons to avoid this supplier already
